There is so much to be thankful for. We were blessed with a beautiful Thanksgiving day. A great way to start the day was a crisp morning hike and the scenery did not disappoint.
My friend and fellow photographer, Dave Rehrig obtained an image, while visiting Penn State which, we believe, was taken by Walker Evans. The scene was taken in South Bethlehem, PA. However, it wasn’t signed or noted anywhere. We both went online and couldn’t verify the photographer. In any event, we attempted to duplicate the scene and the first of the following images is my attempt at a modern day view of this place. While we were snooping around, I found a few other perspectives I enjoyed.
I try to make a point to get out and shoot this once a year event. It is one of the country’s largest Antique & Classic car shows located in Macungie, PA. Each year I attend I find new and different ways to shoot the event. I don’t profess to know a lot about the cars but I do enjoy trying to come up with new compositions.
Last month I photographed in the iconic Grand Central Terminal (aka Grand Central Station) in New York. I spent about 5 hours here and could have easialy spent another 5+ hours. Β This location screams for a fisheye lens. And as you can see, most of my images where produced with one.
A special thank you to Denise Ippolito who made all the arrangements for the day. Including a special tripod permit. A must for long exposures and any HDR work.
