Quick post today as time is short. In portraits you generally want to avoid dappled light on your subjects. However I thought it added a little bit of punch to this building in downtown Phoenix.
Until next time…

It’s your birthday, so what do you do? Go out for a nice dinner? Cake and ice cream? Shopping? Nah. I do what any AZ photog would do…run to the desert and start shooting pictures. I arrived at Lost Dutchman Park just slightly before sunset. I was meeting a fellow photog, Chikku for the evening’s…
I recently had the honor of 2nd shooting the Children’s Action Alliance (CAA) with Holly Baumann Ambuehl . The CAA is a very noble organization dedicated to serving the youth of Arizona. Find out more about them at http://www.azchildren.org. The event was held at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Phoenix. I got there early to…
One of the biggest benefits of belonging to a photography group is you always learn something new. This past SmugMug meeting was no different. Ken Robert (co-organizer of the Meetup) lead the the mini-workshop on using multiple flashes for lighting a model. Ken started the session explaining that just because its pitch dark doesn’t mean…
Typically the weather in AZ has two descriptions, hot or nice. And by hot I mean 115 in August. And by nice I mean 75 on December 18th. Occasionally we have rain but it never lasts more than a day. So you can imagine the surprise and delight when we had fog! Real genuine hard…

I’m assuming this is the building across from the Chase building?
I love the quality and detail that you got out of the brick.
The dapples work just fine here. Nice work!

I like the play of light and shadow here. I also like how you can see reflections of the world on the windows.
The shadows do add a neat element to the shot 🙂
The dappled effect of the shadows really makes this shot! A great capture.
Nice shot man. I like how you used the different style brickwork on the right to make pseudo boarder.
I think the dapples really add to an otherwise unassuming building. Well done.
The shadows playing across the face of the building really give the shot some interesting character.
Great use of shadows and light
This is a really cool find Chris, awesome
Very interesting. The entire wall looks like puzzle to me!
Great details!
Hi would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using? I’m going to start my own blog soon but I’m having a hard time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely
unique. P.S Sorry for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
I use WordPress (the .org) and have been extremely happy with it.
