Sandy Hook Butterfly 2

previous / next

This is the second of the two butterfly shots from Sandy Hook that I took when I was there a few weeks ago on a rather dreary afternoon. The day started pretty nice and ended very overcast.

This one was shot later in the day along a shady wooded path under fairly heavy overcast skies. Unlike the previous one which was shot in the open under clearer skies and brighter, earlier light.

News:

This photo of the Bucknell Football field is a 2 page feature photo in the Fall 2008 issue of Bucknell Magazine.

This photo of the Bucknell Quad is a 2 page feature photo in the Summer 2008 issue of Bucknell Magazine.

As of July 2008 I have decided to post the same photos on "Parallel Universe" as I do here. It has become too complicated to maintain two different photoblogs on a regular basis. Feel free to visit "Parallel Universe" and look through the portfolio/archives since there are quite a few photos there that were never posted here. I will continue to post on both since each one gets different viewers. I have also changed the title of Parallel Universe to Capture This Photography 2.

Check out my other Photoblog portfolio/archives:

Really nice - and great DOF! Just goes to show that even when the clouds are out there is no reason not to be out and about with your camera.

I love the rich orange and lavendar with yellow accents. Beautiful composition. this would make such a lovely notecard.
