Orchids
Windowsill Orchid
I have a pretty extensive houseplant collection. It makes the house feel very alive to me. After summering outside, I bring them back into the house when frost look imminent. The cooler temperatures many times trigger a bloom spike on my orchids. Here is one called Zygopetalum maculatum. It has a wonderful scent, reminiscent of hyacinths. I bought this at Trader Joe's a few years ago! For these photographs, this was the set up:
Nikon D800E camera; Zeiss Makro-Planar 100 mm macro lens; 8 images (8 sec exposure, f/11, existing light, white paper backdrop) stacked in Helicon Focus software.

Here are a couple new examples of images I made using focus stacking to increase depth of field. Numerous images, each focused in a slightly different plane, are integrated in Helicon Focus software.
Waterlilies in my garden
My Garden
My garden is an ever changing source of natural wonder. My latest fancy is water gardening. I have been waiting with anticipation for my tropical water lily (Nymphaea 'William McLane' ) to bloom. After traveling for nearly a month, it is good to be home, tending the garden.

Today! Cuba Photographs: Reception at SOMI March 15th 4-8 PM
My reception is today at SOMI Fine Art in Flemington, NJ.
Havana: Rhythms of Life in Cuba features portraits of people I met during my 2012 trip to Cuba. The viewer is meant to see commonalities that we all share as humans. In addition, the strength of the human spirit is something my subjects exhibit. I hope you can see the show March 1-31st and come to the reception on March 15th 4-8 PM at SOMI. It is free to the public and there will be refreshments. I would love to discuss my experiences on the trip with you!
SOMI Fine Art is located at 50 Mine Street, in the Stangl Factory Building in the heart of historic Flemington, NJ. (908)237-1700
