Wil , the wedding pics came out great..
I am sure the couple was pleased, I am not brave enough to shoot people because I suck at lighting! I prefer to shoot a bug or a tree.

I was out in the barn this evening and saw some really great lighting and creepy webs and such, I think I will set up a shoot in there..

thanks, dee. if they hadn't been friends of mine for years, i'd likely have said no. i feel a little more confident about weddings now...so, may look into doing some of that. not that i'm looking to make that my living, but some cash here and there is certainly nice. and, you know i love shooting people. these are just dressed up people.

how about shooting the webs with lightning popping in the background? that would be some cool stuff. please share what you get, ok?

Ok first of many, the barn is amazing and until I got in there to shoot it, I had no idea how many millions of pics I want to take in there!

as you may or may not know, we've got a bunch of wildfires going down here in tx. there was a relatively small fire a couple miles from the house, so we went looking for it. and we found it. of course, we couldn't get to a place where we could see the fire (they keep blocking the damn roads), but i did manage to get some shots of the army helicopter that was doing water drops on the fire.

you can see them here, if you care to have a look.

not sure how i missed this post, dee. sorry for coming late to the party.

it's a nice set. what lenses were you using? a couple of the shots seem a wee bit distorted (not in a bad way), and i'm curious what you shot with.

you did pretty well capturing the cobwebs...those things are hard to get good focus on. well done! one thing you might want to tuck away for future cobweb shooting is taking a spray bottle with water in it with you. since the webs are so delicate, they can be hard to see. if you mist them, they stand out more, especially if you can get a dark background with the light coming in over your shoulder to illuminate the water beads.

thanks for sharing...looking forward to seeing more of that barn. oh, and the last shot in the album (barn from a low angle) is my favorite. really like the perspective on that one and the way it accentuates the sky.
