Rav

Shot this at the Renaissance Faire at the Castle of Muskogee. This was my second year to go to the festival, and this guy is one of my favorite characters. I caught this one as he turned his head toward me. The next one I shot, he noticed the camera and really started posing.

Bumble Bee

This was the hardest shot I have ever taken. It took about fifteen minutes to get this one shot. Everytime I would get focused in, the bee would fly off and I would have to start again. It was also taken at Honor Heights Park in Muskogee. This was also the first print I made in the darkroom.
This one was taken with a Canon EOS 35mm Camera.  

Colors That Don't Run

This is another shot from my portfolio. The flag had a very strong backlight with the afternoon sun, which washed out the background and gave the flag a brighter tint. This was taken outside the administration building of Northeastern State University.
This one was taken with a Canon EOS 35mm Camera. 

B&W Tulips

I shot this shot with my sister-in-law's film camera. I had to shoot black&white 35mm for my class and then make my own prints...This shot from Honor Heights is one that I used in my portfolio.
