It is exactly what it is called. A bird sitting on a root. Aperture: ƒ/5.6 Camera: Canon EOS 7D Focal length: 85mm ISO: 200 Shutter speed: 1/125s
I managed to take this shot of the moon rising over a very low-lying island while on a cruise ship in the Caribbean. No clouds, no waves, no sounds other than the wind. It was eerily quite and peaceful. Aperture: ƒ/5.6 Camera: Canon EOS 7D Focal length: 14mm ISO: 800 Shutter speed: 1/50s
Sunset in Venice, Italy. Aperture: ƒ/9 Camera: Canon EOS 7D Focal length: 70mm ISO: 400 Shutter speed: 1/1250s
Taken way back in 2006 during a cruise in the Caribbean. It was early enough in the morning that I had the entire ship almost to myself. Aperture: ƒ/11 Camera: Canon EOS 20D Focal length: 10mm ISO: 100 Shutter speed: 1/125s
This was taken many years ago during a trip to Paris. I’ve always loved this shot, it just says “Paris” to me, almost as much as a photo of the Eiffel Tower does. Aperture: ƒ/5.6 Camera: Canon EOS 20D Focal length: 35mm ISO: 200 Shutter speed: 5s
This is an old pier on Maui that just begged me to take its photo. Aperture: ƒ/11 Camera: Canon EOS 7D Focal length: 40mm ISO: 100 Shutter speed: 1/160s
On September 11, 2001, four commercial passenger planes were used as missiles to kill nearly 3,000 people. I took this particular photo in 2006 at the five year anniversary of one of the most horrific tragedies in American history, and my life. As a lifelong New Yorker, with a family history here going back more than five…
This is a natural, heart-shaped cutout in the lava rocks near Nakalele Blowhole in Maui, Hawaii. Aperture: ƒ/8 Camera: Canon EOS 7D Focal length: 85mm ISO: 100 Shutter speed: 1/40s
Back in 2011, my wife and I went to Venice on vacation. While I certainly enjoyed the architecture of this slowly drowning city, after four days I was very much ready to leave. Venice may be beautiful, but the sweltering heat and humidity of Venice in August was enough to cause me to loathe leaving…
This is from a family cruise in 2012. The lovely little girl is my oldest daughter. She was so excited to be on her first cruise and spent about half an hour just standing there watching New York go by as we headed down the Hudson River. Aperture: ƒ/5.6 Camera: Canon EOS 7D Focal length:…
Also taken a few months before Hurricane Sandy hit New Jersey in 2012. This was my first attempt at capturing light trails and my two assistants had a blast swinging their sparklers around on the dock. Aperture: ƒ/11 Camera: Canon EOS 7D Focal length: 30mm ISO: 200 Shutter speed: 10s
Taken on the Jersey shore in 2012, before Hurricane Sandy. Everything you see was completely destroyed by Sandy, including the dock I was standing on to take this photo. They should be mostly rebuilt by now, and one day I’ll visit my friends out there again and take another picture of the “new” homes and…
