one in a crowd

That face. That face (and the man attached to it) was all I saw in a huge crowd of people heading toward the Cathedral. His life’s story is right there for everyone to see.

game/face

Because I am still encumbered by that delightful orthopedic boot, I am looking for ways I can still make photos without a lot of walking around. Also, it’s freaking hot and who needs to be walking around in that??

Turns out that a minor league baseball game holds a pretty good set of subjects, including this player getting ready for his turn at bat. I’ve never quite seen this much concentration on one face.

fire/light

I don’t know even one thing about the technical part of lighting for portraits.

But what I do know is that the flames from a nearby campfire provide a nice warm light for this cowboy’s face.

This is Chad. He’s a big deal in the local arts scene. And here he is at First Friday the other night, working on a new metal sculpture.

When he’s not busy making stuff, he’s also the Executive Director at Charles Adams Studio Project (CASP), which is a key part of the support that local artists and arts lovers enjoy.
