All Gave Some, Some Gave All

Posted by Imagery Photography on

I realize that wars are necessary sometimes. However it now seems that we are engaged in forever wars and the military industrial complex prefers to have conditions of permanent warfare, something I do not support. However the people that do battle for our country deserve nothing less that our full support and respect.

Memorial Day is a day when we pay tribute to all that went to battle on our behalf. Thanks for your service and to the families that have lost loved ones, thanks for your sacrifice.

West Point

Reading is Fundamental

Posted by Imagery Photography on


I took this picture a number of years ago before the explosion of smartphones. Recently I revisited the image and created this selective color version. It was taken at the Sorbonne in Paris.

It made me think if today would this young lady would be reading a hardcover book or would she have her head in her phone like most other people.

Best of The Week Photos

Posted by Imagery Photography on

These are this week’s award winners. Horse Looking at Me from Vienna Austria. Pond Reflections from Lettuce Lake in Tampa Florida. The color image is The Platzjabbeck from Cologne Germany. It is a puppet that appears at the top of Town Hall every hour and sticks it’s tongue out at the town below.

Photographer of The Year 2024

Posted by Imagery Photography on

I have always considered myself to be a better monochrome photographer than a color photographer. Most of that is just experience. When I started serious photography in 1973 I couldn’t really afford color film. That makes this award even more special.

in 2022 and 2023 I won Photographer Of The Year for street photography and architectural photography with Noir Magazine . This year I won Photographer of The Year for Color Photography with Universe of Color Magazine for my picture of the oculus in The Pantheon in Rome. These awards are chosen from hundreds of thousands on entries submitted during the year. See the full yearbook here.

Return To Nova Scotia Part One—Peggy’s Cove

Posted by Imagery Photography on

In 1982 my wife and I visited Nova Scotia. Mostly we camped except for three nights in an inexpensive motel outside Halifax Nova Scotia. Through the yers we have traveled extensively only occasionally returning to previous locations. However, we vowed one day to return to Nova Scotia and this year we did just that. The population of Nova Scotia was just 971,395 in 2019 not much of an increase in 40 years since in 1982 it was 859,038. One of the reasons we were eager to return was the population density and friendliness of the people. In that regard it remains unchanged. 

On our previous trip we stopped in the small fishing village of Peggy’s Cove on our way from Lunenburg to Halifax. We were the only people there when we stopped. Peggy’s Cove is still beautiful but now crowded with a tourist center, restaurants and shops. Unfortunately in 2005 Swissair Flight 111 crashed 8 km (5 mi) off the coast of Peggy’s Cove. This tragedy cause a curiosity boom and a lot of tourists. 

It is still a beautiful spot and worth the trip and the area outside the tourist center is still quite rustic and undeveloped.

A Visit To The National Aviary

Posted by Imagery Photography on

One of the first things we did as we emerged from the pandemic was to renew our membership to The National Aviary. We are blessed in Pittsburgh to be the home of the only independent indoor nonprofit aviary in the United States. It is also the country’s largest aviary. Eventually some images will be uploaded to my commercial gallery

My Top Ten Images of 2023

Posted by Imagery Photography on

2023 was a special year for us. Early in the year we traveled to Australia and New Zealand for the first time and experienced Summer in January! I took almost 1000 images and sure many were bracket exposures and multiple angles but it is still difficult to pick the ten best images. So I may revise this topic but here are my current selections for my best ten images for 2023.

The National Aviary

Posted by Imagery Photography on

Last week we returned to the National Aviary for the first time since the COVID Epidemic. We happily renewed our membership and were a little giddy to be back with our avian friends. We were wondering if some of the flamingos were the baby chicks we saw years ago. here are a few images from our recent visit.
