I love to get away from the Vegas lights whenever I can and go on Photo Safari. This week I finally made it up to Delamar Nevada. Delamar is an Ghost Town about 3 hours north of Las Vegas and has been on my list of places to visit for years.

So last night a few friends and I decided to go downtown and have some black and white fun. Not really looking to shoot anything, just to hang out, talk photography and maybe snap some frames in B&W. Most of us brought one of our Digital’s and a Film camera. Below is some of the snapshots from my G12 Point and Shoot Digital.

It’s been so busy lately it’s hard to get caught up on some of my personal shots I have taken like the few snapshots I took in Florida and these from the Oregon trip. However… I did manage to edit a few for those of you that have been asking to see them.
Below is Crater Lake Oregon, taken last week. There is still about 12 feet of snow on the ground there now so access was limited to just the south rim.
The above shot is a 20 frame panorama, 10 shots across and 2 shots tall, merged in Photoshop to make one huge image. Final output size is about 8 feet wide at 300 dpi for those pixel peeping nerds out there. 
There is nothing quite like hanging out of the window at 60 mph taking pictures…
And of course I was not dressed for hanging out in the snow, island shirt and flip flops…
and a few others that I like…

One of the great things about booking jobs in other states is while there, I get to spend a little time exploring the local area with my camera and catch things that we do not normally see in Las Vegas, like this shot of a typical Florida west coast sunset. (Taken at Sand Key)

There is a side benefit to traveling around the county photographing graduations and other events, one of those benefits is the drive to some of the out of the way places I tend to shoot at. Here are a few from the trip from Albuquerque to Roswell to Santa Fe then Back to Albuquerque. Enjoy…

Stay tuned, this weekend I’m off again, to the Tampa area this time for a week shooting more graduations and a wedding. I’m sure that I’ll return with a few more snaps for the blog.
Well, it’s finely up. Madame Tussaud’s wanted a large back-lit print for one of the walls they were redoing inside the wax museum. They asked for something “Vegas” Here is what I came up with for them.
Here is a shot of it installed on location inside Madame Tussaud’s on the strip. They are still have to adjust the brightness of the lights behind it and they are also adding more figures and other props for customers to pose with when they visit the museum so expect to see more when you go there.
