Holy cow. I am back!

A lot of life got in the way, but it was/is ALL good stuff. Kids>all. I fixed the gallery again and will be uploading some new galleries as many of the epic places we have been are now srubbed off of the earth. D

To the moon. Im getting back into it boys and girls.

Of course I need to fix the gallery yet again, but here is a photo from a recent cold night. Lets go!

Spent some time in the air and posting again.

Dust, locked up.

The places in hiding can offer such beauty. Sadly most are ruined by scrappers and vandals. Glad on this trip I got to see one of them get arrested with my own eyes.

Stunning..

Merry Christmas Utica

While I have been busy with another business, I still have been shooting and missing posting here.

Once these holidays are over, I will have plenty of time to spend in my office showing you what I have been up to.

... for now, I leave you this Christmas Eve with a shot from tonight and one from a shoot with Santa.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a Good Night,
D

Spent some time with S Dot and DJ 360. Had a blast of a shoot.
