Winter time Portraits????????????

Every year after the holidays for the last ohhhhh.... 30 years or so, it seems that people really do not want to have their portrait taken. That's understandable, it's cold out there, most of the time, well depends on who you talk to. 

Now that I do everything on location and anywhere in the world ( I can dream, can't I ? ) it is even tougher to get people to photograph. So what do I do?  Well........ after working many hours a day, almost everyday for the last 3-4 months of the year, I do nothing. Or I should say I slow down compared to the past 3-4 months and get ready for the spring time because its busier than the holidays. If I just had the winter lighting and the spring, summer and fall backgrounds I would never have the time to do nothing. Because you know the saying " Idle hands make for Idle minds" or something like that. That sounds right to me. I guess I ought to Google that saying. Naw...............I,m to busy doing nothing. Well sort of.

Little League Baseball World Series

I have been watching the Little League Baseball World Series here the past few weeks and it has brought back many great memories when I played as a kid. I was a tall kid at that age (10-14) for my age and did quite well playing baseball. But then it all caught up with me and for the next 4-5 years I could barley put one foot in front of the other with running into something. Oh well I am glad I grew out of that and came out unharmed.

I played for Westbury Little League and back in 1965 I think, they went to the World Series and won it all. I missed that by one year and my Father was suppose to be the manager of that team but it did not work out for him either.

But its great watching these kids play now of days it seems that they know so much more about the game. I have enjoyed watching them.

GO PEARLAND!!!!!!!

Photography Tip

When photographing people some of the best images come when you are very close to your subject.

Close up photography is a great way to get some really great expressions of people. If you will stay close and zoom in a bit the results should be great. Remember in even lighting you will get get great detail in the face and eyes. So stay close and enjoy the beautiful images you will get.

U S Open

Tiger gave it a great try. Next year he will get them.
