The Old Plymouth

I made this image at a Saint Patrick’s Day parade yesterday. I wasn’t in a creative mood yesterday, either at the parade or later when I went for a walk around Camp Edie in Sayville. It didn’t help that it was overcast and cold, a good day to walk in a parade. I just couldn’t’ t get the creative juices flowing.

The Harbor Seal

My family and I made breakfast for the homeless through our church yesterday morning. We’ve been doing this for a few years. We get up at 4:45, and make pancakes or eggs for 30 or so homeless folks that are picked up and housed overnight in local churches. We are part of a group that volunteers for a nondenominational organization called Maureen’s Haven. . Maureen’s Haven, rotates among a few churches here on the eastern end of Long Island, and runs over the winter months when the elements are most severe. It’s an eye opening experience and I’m glad the boys come and help. We always get to work with some nice folks.
This time we meet a new couple that just joined Christ Our Saviour Lutheran Church. Colleen is a bike rider who rides with our pastor. We’ve heard stories about her and bike riding for quite some time from Pastor. So it was nice to put a face to the name. Her husband, Phil told us about a seal release that was going to take place at noon. Even though I needed to go to a meeting, I was able to meet my wife and sons at the release point and watch as the second Harbor Seal get released into the wild.
This little guy did not want to swim away. He kept rolling around in the surf back towards the crowd on the beach. Being so late I couldn’t really get to close. There were little children in front of me and they kept walking in front of my camera. This is one of the only images I’m happy with.

Those Damn Geese

I’ve been walking past these decoys for weeks. They belong to my nephew, my son Evan and I walk past them on they way to the school bus stop every morning. Back during the heavy snow I walked over with my camera, but I visualized it differently that what was actually there. Yesterday the light seemed right so I made an image or two.
This is the better of the two.
Geese are a problem for some people here on Long Island. Their natural predators have declined helping their population to grow. Geese overwhelm many of the park grasslands and waterways. Their waist product pollutes many small bodies of water and makes sitting on the rolling parks lawns impossible without getting filthy.
One of the municipalities I do work for has hired dogs to annoy the geese, causing them to move on to other spots. My nephew hunts geese in season for those that find the meat a delicacy. It’s too bad the two couldn’t work together.

Rusty old wheelbarrow

I missed a post or two, I’m not crazy about anything I have and I haven’t been able to get out and look around. This morning I changed this image from color to grayscale, and thought it was worthy to post.
It comes from the radar site that I visited last Sunday afternoon. I was first drawn to the rusty color, a repeating theme in my photography, and the round wheel. It lacked something even after I processed it as an HDR image.
I’m happier with it now.

Old Umbrella

Today’s photo was made on Sunday, March 8th at the radar site. The colorful old umbrella caught my eye along the roadside. I thought it might look good as a HDR photograph. I found the folds and shadows along with the yellow and gray materials an interesting study in line and color.

Nothing to say

I’ve been saving this image for when, like the sign, I have nothing to say.
This was made on February 23 on one of my walks. I posted it as a color image and gray scale because I couldn't make up my mind. I like the colors reflecting in the worn sign.

Just Under The Radar

I made today’s image up in Calverton. I’ve driven past this place hundreds of times and even seen it in another photographer’s images. I’ve always wondered what it was. Open fields and no trespassing signs surround it. As usual my curiosity got the best of me and today I went to take a closer look.
It’s a radar devise for the FAA. It looks so threatening.
Back in high school I made a photo essay on things that scare children. Most of the items I photographed were tall and ominous. Back then we always used black and white film, so I converted this image to grayscale.
Had I known about this place back then, it would have been included in that essay.
But it’s just a radar devise to guide commuter air traffic.

Empty risers

I made this image last night while waiting to make the photo I was there to make. I’m a sucker for a silhouette.

TGIF

Thank God It’s Friday doesn’t have the same meaning to a working photographer. I have an assignment this morning and another at 7:30 tonight and tomorrow night. I’m not complaining, it’s how the bills get paid. The weekend nights I have off are far and few between. So I’ll just look at the colorful cocktails. Bottoms-up, this round's on me!

Sign of the Times

Sign of the Times

A handful of brightly colored, crushed lottery tickets on the wet parking lot pavement caught my eye yesterday. Colorful dreams purchased with hard-earned money turned into litter. I didn’t win, it’s someone else’s problem now. Almost everything about the lottery is an illusion, except the trash.
A week or two ago while waiting to pay for my morning coffee, the young lady ahead of me was buying lottery tickets. She was picking and choosing which games to play, “I’ll take two $500 A Week for Life games and one Loose Change, give me a Lucky Cash X10, two Cashtastic’s, four Monopoly’s, three In the Money’s, no, make that two In the Money’s and two Set for Life games.”
My coffee was getting cold while I waited to pay. I watched in complete awe at how she rattled off the names of the games, so swift so confident. It was like a mother at the deli counter ordering the week’s supply of cold cuts for her family. “ Nick, she asked, are there any new games I don’t know about? “Did I for get the Triple Diamonds, let me get two Triple Diamonds also Nick.”
She paid and turned towards the door saying,” see you tomorrow Nick.” “Yes, and good luck” was his reply. He turned to me and scanned my 16 ounces of morning starter fluid, “ is that all Steve," he asked? I handed him two bucks, and asked if he would toss the empty cup for me.

All in a Day's Work

Traveling to work yesterday morning was not fun. I passed three spin outs and had to take an alternate route because of an auto crash. I gave myself twenty-five minutes extra and was still ten minutes late.
I covered the Suffolk County Legislature’s general meeting; they passed a band on food containers used for toddlers up to three years of age that contain BPA.
Today’s picture post is an image looking over the shoulder of the bills sponsor, Legislator Steve Stern.
This image is not usual for me, most of the photos I make are from the other side of the horseshoe. I liked the layout of the mess in front of him and the big folder marked BPA.

Snow, Snow, Snow

Well the weatherman was right we got snow, lots of snow. With the whipping winds, we had snowdrifts twenty inches high and none at all on our deck or patio. With the help of my wife and the boys we got the driveway so it is passable. The snow blower they gave me for Christmas 07 came in handy in getting the volume down to a manageable height. But it’s still backbreaking work to do a 250-foot driveway.
We dressed Isabel in her sweatshirt and coat and she had a blast in the snow…for a little while anyway. She looked cold so I put her back in the house. She cried and cried and cried as we shoveled snow. She always wants to be wherever we are.
When we finished and were getting ready to come in for lunch, Isabel had to come out, this time without getting dressed.

The March Lion

March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb. I woke to snow this morning and the weatherman is calling for eight to fourteen inches before noon tomorrow. Big lion. Other than church, I did not venture out today. It looks very pretty, I just didn’t want to brave the cold or pick up my camera today. I did get some stuff done around the house, so I wasn’t too lazy.

African American History

I worked an African American History event today for the Town of Babylon. It was an excellent event. The keynote speaker, Reverend Dr. Reginal Tuggle did a great job in delivering his message. It’s speeches like his that make me glad I do events like this.

My image post comes from this event. It’s an image of the traditional African colors one of the members of the Praise Ensemble had on. I liked the contrast between the black suit, tie and hankie.

Manorvillle Park

Pretty uneventful day. Did get some great news in the mail, Norwich University is offering Adam a nice sum of money for collage. What a blessing! He applied to twelve collages and six have accepted him. Two have offered small scholarships, but Norwich is almost offering to cut his tuition in half. Wow.
Today’s picture is from Wednesday’s walk in Manorville Park. This is a new place for me. It looks like a new park with trails set-up for horseback riding. I didn’t find it too interesting, maybe because I have had a lot on my mind.

Peggy

A friend of mine, Peggy Kraus, writes about healthy eating and exercise for examiner.com. I have Type 2 diabetes and she has turned me on to a fantastic book, The China Study, by T. Colin Campbell, PhD. While I have found it difficult to do everything he suggests, I have cut down my consumption of animal protein and have noticed a drop in my blood sugar levels by about 20%. This is a link to her very cool site. (I linked the page with my photo being the very modest person I am.)
http://www.examiner.com/x-672-Disease-Prevention-Examiner~y2009m2d20-Vegan-living-and-diligent-exercise-well-worth-the-effort
Today’s picture post of the tulips was made on Wednesday. These are the same flowers I posted on February 14.

Tuesday, Feb.24, 2008

I painted the bathroom walls today. I wonder what’s more difficult sometimes, making a living or keeping the property in good repair. Did I forget to mention the dog, cat, wife and three sons?
Today’s picture post is a double, Isabel is a retired greyhound, she’s eight years old and this is her second favorite thing to do, lie in the sun. Eating is first by far. Sasha is a rescue from the local shelter. Both animals slept the day away while I painted. So much for mans best friend.

Iced Puddles

Before work today, I went exploring and found some ice patterns that I found interesting. I wish I owned a macro lens. Anyway, it was a productive walk and I got a couple of keepers, which is better than some assignments.
The weather turned cold again and there’s been snow mentioned in the forecast. The past two nights have been very windy. Our house, sits higher than our neighbors and we don’t have any large trees. The wind comes right off Cold Spring Pond and it sounds like it’s ripping the siding right off the house. Sometimes it’s so bad that I check the sides of the house in the morning.
.

West First Street

There’s a big contrast between this ornate street sign and the shape of Oswego’s west side. I was shocked by the amount of bars and abandoned buildings. The nicest store in the village is a bookstore and it says something about this being a college town. It depresses me to see a place with a colorful history just get wasted away.

The Icy Edge.

After a long and sometimes tense drive we made it home safely. Potsdam is about eight hours from Southampton, but the snow in the Catskill region added another hour and some stress.
I came across this photograph yesterday in Potsdam where Maple Avenue crosses the Raquette River. The web footprints of a goose as it finds some unfrozen river to swim in. It just looked funny to me. It reminded me of suicide, the last steps of someone before they went over the icy edge. I know, it’s a dark thought, but still intriguing.

Potsdam, NY

We got to Potsdam late yesterday afternoon. It’s so much nicer than Oswego. Oswego State is a big school, but the town is run-down, mostly bars, tattoo and body art places amongst empty stores and buildings. I use to think Potsdam was fairly depressed for a college town. There are two colleges in this small town and the economy is obviously supported by this single industry.
Stephanie, the owner of the hotel where we usually stay, said that because of the building of a new Lowe’s Home Improvement store they’ve been very busy. This is the off-season and they would have two or three units booked during this time of year. With the out-or-town help, they’re booking seven or eight units.
Anyway, today’s picture is from Clarkson University in Potsdam. While we were waiting for Adam to find out if he could sit in on a class or two, I went snooping around. There was this old phonograph and I loved the way the two windows lit it.

Traveling

We drove up to Syracuse New York, North Syracuse actually. We were unsure of the hotels in the Oswego area, our destination, so we stayed in North Syracuse for the night and left early for Adam’s appointment at Oswego State.
Today’s picture post was made at a KFC fast food restaurant last light. I liked the way the red seats looked and the neon sign and the fact that we were alone for a long time. When I got the image into photoshop the first thing I did was to flip it, so it would read correctly. But I decided to leave it the way it was made.

Rusty chain, Uniondale, NY

Yesterday were the Suffolk County Wrestling finals, Adam finished fourth in his weight class for his school’s division. I am very proud of him.
We spent the whole day at Hofstra University watching the two Suffolk County divisions compete. It’s fairly exciting.
Today we leave on a road trip to various colleges for Adam. I’m not sure if I’ll have internet, but I will have my camera.

Happy Valentine's Day

I made this still on Thursday. It’s not roses but they are red. Enjoy.

Sag Harbor, NY

I had an assignment on Shelter Island today, which brought back a lot of memories for me. It was one on my favorite places to explore. It’s built-up now, but being winter there was hardly anyone around. I’m sure the summers are not the same as they were thirty years ago.
Today’s post is from Sag Harbor, on my way home from Shelter Island. I just found it odd to have the coin operated ride with the James Dean and Marilyn Monroe posters right behind them.

Painting the trim.

I just took a brake from painting the trim in the house. It’s a big job and I have the time before an assignment this evening. This picture is another view from the highway overpass processed HDR. Time for lunch now and then it’s back to painting. Anyone want to grab a brush?

No Hands

My post yesterday was so long I forgot to write about the image. I went to this highway overpass and recorded some images for HDR processing when I came across this graffiti, “Look Ma, no hands.” I thought it worked for a self-portrait; after all I made the image with no hands.
Today’s picture was made on Newtown Lane in East Hampton. I was out there on assignment and just had to stop in the village. It’s not often I’m out there.
I was intrigued with the white on white and how the undersides of the steps were in the warm sunlight and the top part had the cool shadow. Yesterday was my day for white. I also made an image of an empty store space with three white walls and floor.
Big difference.

Young Poets stale newsprint.

I did a job yesterday photographing young poets that were part of a mentoring program. Many of them were published in a small press book. Some even had books of their own. It was an excellent event; there was some fabulous poetry.
It made me think about the blog on note for February 6th, newspaperproject.org and the publishing industry as a whole. How blogs have given writers, photographers and artists a place to publish their work for others to see. In the past, this has not been an easy hurdle to overcome.
Now artist don’t have to grovel with anyone, the web accepts anyone no matter you’re your level of expertise.
For better or worse, the Internet has become the new place for the talented and not so talented, no editors and little in the way of critics; you can delete any comment you don’t like and you have instant worldwide distribution. I’ve spent my life selling photographs to the print world. I’ve put up with my share of rejection letters as well as published pieces.
Now the print world is gasping for ways to tap the revenue stream of the web because print now has real competition. They haven’t looked at changing themselves to a broader appeal; they look to adapting what they do to a completely different medium.
Yes, I am a victim and you can hear it in this post. A project of mine has been turned down because it’s too regional. The same publisher now is trimming staff due to the economic downturn and declining coffee table book sales. Am I crazy to think that a picture book that has local interest can make money on a local level?
Newspapers tout they double check facts. The New York Times and Judith Miller come to mind, an experienced writer and one of the cornerstones of newsprint. Not fact but published unchecked fact. More reliable that the web, that’s what they want you to believe. I’ve been told the truth comes in many shades and colors.
The world is changing and they’ll have to change with it. I surf through blogs and find a whole host of interesting information, photographs and art. There’s many blogs that mention God and talk about faith. I come across every hobby imaginable, and quite a few blogs about family or starting a family. Some are written by the very young and some are grandparents and great-grandparents. There’s a lot of freedom on the web. Maybe the print world should do some surfing on their own.

Prosser Pines after the snow.

Not too much happening today. Thankfully, the weather was much warmer than yesterday’s hi teens and low twenties. But the sun is not out and if it were a bit colder I’d take a guess at more snow. But the weatherman says that we’re in for a mild weekend in the mid to high forties. Nice.
Today’s post is from Wednesday. This is Prosser Pines in all its glory. At the last minute I decided to change it into black and white and tone it. It gives me a feeling of nostalgia.

Keep Out

Earlier today I went looking for something I need for an up-coming photo. I didn’t find what I was looking for, but I did find today’s picture. I was in Patchogue, NY now famous for the murder of an Ecuadorian immigrant, Marcelo Lucero. Seven teens have been charged with the murder and with other hate crimes. So why did I think it was strange to find a quarter acre corner lot with a hand-painted KEEP OUT sign?
It’s fairly obvious that people and animals cut through the lot to save time or steps. It looks like a short cut to the water to me. Maybe there’s some drinking goes on, there’s a bottle in the lower left of the photo. There might be more hidden under the fresh layer of snow, I don’t know. The bottle could have been discarded from a passing auto. It just seems silly to post KEEP OUT.
I grew up in the woods. I can’t believe you can tell a boy to KEEP OUT of the woods. Maybe no littering, or no hunting, but woods are there to be explored and every young boy knows that. It’s like having a blog with a posting that says NO VISITORS.
The hate crimes murder and the KEEP OUT sign don’t have anything to do with each other except that they both happened in Patchogue. They both just aren't right, that’s all.
Sorry I’m just ranting.

White Fingers

Another day, another dollar, so the saying goes. I spent the whole day yesterday on one job and a good portion of the day driving home in the snow. It was a slow drive. Today I was able to get over to Prosser Pines and make a few images before work. I don’t know what was worse: walking through the deep snow or the seventeen degrees weather. As least there was no wind. But I did get cold quickly.
I made a few images today that I liked; this was the first. The branches looked like fingers to me. It was beautiful at Prosser Pines and I was not the first one there. It’s comforting to know others take the time to enjoy nature, and a nice brisk walk in the woods.

There's no place like home.

Well, it’s good to be home. It’s always nice to visit with my parents, brothers and sister, but as Dorothy said in the Wizard of Oz, “There’s no place like home.” I’m not a big fan of Florida’s weather. I like the four seasons. I think I’d like a shorter winter, but I still like winter. For many years the winters here on Long Island have been mild. This is the first winter that has been bitter cold and snowy. Maybe in a few years, when father time plays his dirty trick of age, I might feel different.
We moved my parents from a gated community for seniors in Ocala to a regular new community in Lakeland. They are closer to my sister Luanne and her husband Bill, both in the medical field. It will be good for my parents, they are getting on in age and my father’s health is in poor shape. It was very difficult for me to watch him not do things he use to do, even simple things.
I hardly get together with my family. We all have such different, busy lives and I live so far from the rest of them.
Today’s picture post is my first double photo post, which posted backwards from how I uploaded them Sooo…the second is a silhouette of me at the airport Thursday morning and the first is a shot of the morning sky out of the Jetblue window coming home Sunday. I did photoshop the window scratches out of the image, but the color is true. The curvature of the window added a soft focus effect.

Along came the rain.

I’m taking a brake from packing to post my last picture till Sunday or Monday. On the way to the bus stop with Evan I caught this oak leaf riding on the snow. It looked so isolated sitting on top of the three fresh inches of snow. When I stooped down to photograph it, I noticed parts of the leaf caught by the snow. It would be only a matter of time before it was all covered…
…As it turns out, today’s snow turned to rain. Lots of rain. There’s not much, if any, snow on the ground. The weatherman is calling for it to be very cold overnight and the ride to work should be slow. Figures I have to drive to the airport tomorrow.

Tuesday, January 27, 2009

Thursday I’m leaving for Florida to help my parents move from a condo to a house. I really don’t like flying but it the quickest way to get there and back. I plan to travel light. I will bring one camera body and a lens. I haven’t made up my mind between the Canon 5d with the 24-105 or the 20d and the 17-40. The 20d has the build in flash that has come in handy in the past. Decisions, decisions.
I had a friend get his camera stolen from him at an airport, just one more thing to complicate the decision.
Today’s picture post is from Monday the 19th. I changed it to grayscale and pumped up the contrast. My black and white images never look as good on the blog as they do on my computer. I have to work on that.
So I may not post till I return on Sunday, the first of February, but at least I’ll have something different.

Calverton Barn View II

This is another view of the Calverton Barn that I photographed a week ago today. I did spend some time today looking for interesting things to make images of, but I wasn’t successful. This also is an HDR post processed image. I was happier with this one because I was able to save the sky.

Can't find my Muse

Well it’s been almost a week and I really haven’t shot anything new. This image will be a week old on Monday. And, I’m not crazy about it at all. Tomorrow I don’t have much to do, so maybe I’ll be able to spend a little time and get something new to post.

Calverton Barn

I woke up feeling really good today, and so far it’s been good. I processed another image from Monday using someone else’s Mac so I could see how it looked as an HDR image. I’m happy. This is a barn in Calverton not to far from the Magic Farm. Most of the buildings on the Magic Farm property have been torn down. I’m glad I found my way to trespass back in November to make the photos I did.
Progress. Making way for new homes or condo’s or an industrial park, anything but a farm. There’s not much money in farming small farms here on Long Island. Property and school taxes are so high farmers barely brake even. Many smaller farms are sold as land for development.
Recently, local government started purchasing the development rights to some of the larger farms. This way the farm can stay a working farm and the farmer get some money for keeping it open space.

Computers are a headache.

Today’s photo was made on Monday. I am happy to say that it is an HDR image. Post-processing took place on someone else’s machine. I probably lack enough RAM to process HDR images. We just can’t figure out the problem. I was able to merge images into HDR files, not anymore, now they just don’t open. Computers are a headache.

Back on the Beat

Between the fridge cold spell we had and my lack of creativity I didn’t make any personal photos for a few days.
On Monday, Martin Luther King Day, I had an awards breakfast to cover. The drive there was very difficult. Sunday night was had a light snow on top of a heavier snow on Saturday. Monday the early morning light was beautiful. There was no wind so the branches looked beautiful with a light cover of snow. All I could do was hope that it stayed that way till I was finished at the breakfast.
I was lucky and was able to make some images with HDR post-processing in mind. All did not go well with post-production last night and I could not get any of the images to open as HDR images. I’ll have to figure out what went wrong.
So I decided to post a photo of the musicians from the Martin Luther King awards breakfast. I was impressed with the percussionist and chose to make a few available light images of him. The lighting was low and the exposure was 1/13sec.@ f.4 at an iso of 800. I wanted to get the blur of his hands. I wish his face were clearer. Oh well.

Amityvillle Villlage

I found today’s image in the Village of Amityville, yes the home of the Amityville Horror. I think we drove past the actual house when I was 17 or 18 years old. I don’t think I could find it today without asking. I was there on a job to make a photograph for a web page banner.
This window belongs to the Amityville General Store, which is housed in a fairly old building. I included the window frame because the paint is peeling and it looked as old as some of the décor inside.

Red For Everyone

Today’s photo is the product of a long week and another busy day. Things are getting back to normal.
Making a photo every day for the blog is a great exercise for me. It forces me to look at different things and not just make photographs because it’s my living. It brings me back to when I first fell in love with photography.
I made this image on the way home yesterday. I loved the way the red light looked against the blue sky, so I pulled into a parking lot and made a couple of images. It just reminds me everyone needs to stop.

Saturday 1.10.09

It’s been a killer week. I’m sitting up in bed with a heat pack on my neck trying to catch up on visiting the blogs I frequent and getting a new posting for my own. I haven’t made any personal pictures for a while. I did have a chance on Thursday to take a walk thought the village of Babylon. I had my camera, but nothing caught my eye.
I was hired to make campaign photos for a special election and a village election, both started this week. I can’t remember the last time I worked six days in a row in a January. I’m not complaining, just counting my blessings and using heat on my sore neck.
Today’s way-over-due post is from January 3rd’s walk on the beach. I liked the figure eight s he snow fences made.
It’s snowing tonight so maybe I’ll be motivated to make something personal tomorrow.

All Worn out.

Two days in a row, back to back work. This doesn’t happen often, it doesn’t given me much time to myself. It’s almost six and I have about 45 minutes before my next gig, I’ll use this time to put together my next post. This is one of the wonderful benefits to a laptop. On occasion I’ve completed jobs in the car, even burnt the CD.
I’ve been thinking lately about how secure I am at what I do. Most of my work comes from one of two places. I’m having a “putting all my eggs in one basket” anxiety. I know it’s all driven by the state of the economy, but it still works me up. In a way, it good to worry a little, it keeps you on you toes.
Today’s picture is a self-portrait from the old Oldsmobile images I made on Sunday. I was fooling around with it and made it black & white. There’s a digital advantage, black & white and color both on the safe frame.

Sunny Sunday

Today is the last day before we’re back to some sort of routine. The workweek starts off very busy for me, unusual for January. The rest of the month looks light.
I want to build an entertainment cabinet. Every winter, during the slow season, I try to harness my creative energy and do something different. I started a mechanical drawing yesterday, but I think I need to change it.
It looks beautiful today, crisp blue shy and plenty of sunshine. Maybe I can get down to the ocean again for my walk.
Today’s image is a request from fellow blogger Lidiji for one of the Oldsmobile images. You should check out her black and white imagery @ silaartphoto.blogspot.com. Very talented.
I made this image from a low angle to eliminate the busy background and emphasize the long lines of the hood. I also liked the headlight, which I dodged a bit to make lighter.

Jan 3 2009

Took a walk along the ocean beach this morning and was greeted by a friendly chocolate lab. His owner was not as friendly. Isn’t that always the way. So be it. I wasn’t looking for conversation. I came across a lot of interesting subject matter. But mostly made photographs of the sown fence shadows and patterns. It was a very good walk
When I got home there was a 1930 something Oldsmobile parked around the corner. So I make some photos there. All in all it was a good day.

Fixed the sink..maybe.

For the longest time, our kitchen sink has leaked. It’s been an off and on problem. One that I’ve tackled a couple of times myself, and even called in a self proclaimed professional to tackle it. Maybe this time my repair will stick.
It was just way too cold and windy to venture out doors. Today’s post is from Tuesday, December 30th. I spent a few hours at the Vanderbilt Museum making some photos pro-bono. I found the dyed concrete work very intriguing.
