Just for fun.


Saturday I drove across the river to take some pictures. These are the kind of shots that I really enjoy taking. Feedback would be great.


This old warehouse really caught my eye. It looked sad and lonely. Forgotten even though it's surrounded by busy streets, row homes and one of my favorite antique shops. I thought the way the building was deteriorating, or being pulled apart was interesting. There's no roof on most of it. And since there are no sides , the floors and the boards that make up the remaining piece of the roof are exposed.
I know this is what most people would call an eye-sore. But I guess part of the reason why I love buildings like this is because they have history. Someone probably laid those boards and nailed them into place by hand. People worked on these floors...okay now I'm rambling. But anyway, that's the feeling behind them. The goal is to make you feel something.

My babies


How do you like the drool string dangling from dude's mouth? I left it in because I thought it was a great character trait. The boy is constantly drooling.


H.B. she is my dolly. At this age they're really easy to photograph because they are so natural. The don't automatically pose when they see the camera.


On the other hand, when Ri sees the camera pointed at her she must pose. So it takes some coaxing to get her to just act natural. But she is a beauty. If I say so myself.
