My apologies in advance to those of you who are not on a broadband connection.  Then again, what am I saying?  Hurry up and upgrade you cheap hippies.  Unless your out in the middle of nowwhere, in which case, there’s nothing you can do about your crappy connection.

Wow!!! So much to show, so much to blog about, and so many pictures to show off.   I guess I’ll just go in chronological order.  First up, the trip to Denver.

We didn’t do much this time when we went up there.  It was mainly just chillin and hanging out, so there really aren’t any shots of mountains, lakes, and sweet looking rock formations this time around.  I’ll have to correct that the next time I head to Colorado, considering that it’s such a beautiful state.

This is my brother Harry, who probably thinks that I ignore him half the time haha.

And his lovely wife Jan.  Sorry I didn’t get more pictures of you Jan, but I know you hate me aiming that camera in your general direction all of the time.

My wonderful and absolutely adorable Niece

And last, but not least, my kick ass sister! Ricky couldn’t make it out with us this time, but hopefully, he’ll be around on the next trip.

And a few sights around their home

And some pictures and candids from the Art festival in Denver

And this young lady at the art festival was just TOO phoine.   I’m an extremely shy guy, but even I couldn’t resist aiming the camera in this beauty’s direction.

And to cap it off, some chilling in the spa

Okay, so that’s it for the Denver shots at the moment.  Harry, Pam, and Jan, if you want full size photos for your own printing, just hit me up.

And of course, I have to show off some of my recent macro shots

Oh, yea, and just took some pictures off the cat yesterday evening while testing out some new lighting schemes.  Which btw, I have some really sweet ideas for a few body landscape shots for those who are interested.  Just hit me up.   Anyways, here’s some recent shots of my baby girl.

And while out and about today, I picked up some Black velvet.  Had to test it out on some glass.  Which btw, is a real pain in the neck to shoot in a way that you can bring out detail.  There will definitely be some more experimenting with them.  But these were the glasses that my brother and his wife got for me.  I thought these things were absolutely stunning!

And last but not least, while I was in the studio, and had the lights set up, I decided to do some shots with the macro lens under studio lighting conditions.   Talk about a world of difference!  Wow!

Aight, I’m off to bed.  Next blog entry will be more of the latest happenings in life outside of photography.  Hopefully, I can get that out over the weekend.  And boy do I have a lot to say!
