Psychedelic Fireworks

Well since last night post about fireworks was so popular I thought that I would share some more interesting photos of fireworks.  Some of these were accomplished by hand holding the camera and moving it around while taking a long exposure.

Hope you enjoy and if we all keep thinking “WARM” spring might just come early.

Fireworks on the River

Tonight’s post keeps with the theme of dreaming of warmer weather.  One of my favorite things to do in the summer is to photograph fireworks.  And in the Pittsburgh area we love our fireworks, so there are plenty of opportunities to shoot them.

Think warm and enjoy!!

Out of the Snow Comes the Tulip

Tonight’s post is a collection of red tulips to keep us all looking forward to spring and warmer weather.  I am most definitely looking forward to spring flowers.  By the way it is currently 24 degrees.

A Leaf is Just a Leaf

Tonight photo is a simple macro shot of a couple of leaves that I took at a recent stop at Phipps Conservatory, in Pittsburgh.  I really enjoy macro photography and the extremely limited depth of field that you encounter, although it can be very frustrating the results are well worth the time and effort.

This is shot with a Nikon D300 and a Sigma 150mm macro lens.

The Tower of Oakland

Tonight I’m posting a couple of shots of a tower in Oakland, Pa.  This is near Heinz Chapel in Pittsburgh.  I found this building to be interesting as it seems a little out-of-place next to the modern building.  I don’t know what the building is or what it is used for, I just find it fascinating.

If you have any information about the building I would like to know a little more about it.
