Foggy Sunrise



 

Hello Everyone,

This morning I spent sunrise with a great group of friends at Marsh Creek. When we arrived we had some nice patchy fog in the valley and as the sun rose above the trees it burned off quickly.

Memorial Day Tribute



 

Happy Memorial Day Weekend,

I made this image back in 2005 and still today it has the same somber feeling it did back then! The Veterans had just finished putting all of the crosses and flags up outside of a VFW in northeast Philadelphia.

Ed

Holtwood Falls


Hello Everyone,

Sorry for the lack of presence lately. As much as I miss interacting with everyone, it's kind of nice being busy and actually making some money with my photography (always a good thing). I wanted to share this image of the Holtwood Falls that my friend Nick and I seem to visit more than most people. This is the first image I've captured without the log that I had grown accustom to that ran along the falls.

Best of Light,

Ed

Working the Scene



 

Hello Everyone,

Sunday morning I had an opportunity to shoot with friend and fellow photographer Nick Dibernardo. We visited one of our old haunts over along the Susquehanna River which always provides a pleasing arrangement. Here I wanted to capture Nick hard at work putting the final touches on his composition. Looking at this image doesn't do justice to the steepness of the bank he's standing on. One misplaced step and down the bank he would slide about 25 feet to the bottom.

My Sanctuary



 

Hello Everyone,

This is my area that gives me solace and allows me to re-charge my spirit. It's the garden in the backyard and I actually spend a great deal of time there. My son and I dug the pond and laid the liner, and then Kelly arranged the stones and planted the flowers and ferns. It's a nice little sanctuary. I made this image on a soft overcast day and added the Glamour Glow filter that comes with Nik's Color Effects Pro.
