Frozen in a Flap

A hummingbird is shown flying in for its next meal. The fast shutter speed was a key component in snapping this beauty in nature.

The Slow Approach

The hay awaits the baler to snatch it up. The focus is drawn to the hay that is down on the ground to show the art of baling hay from the point of view of the hay itself.

Engagement

An engaged couple is shown by the ring on her hand as they pose for a picture. The lighting from the front helps to show their faces clearly so the viewer can see how happy they both are.

Vintage Cruise

An old truck is taken out for a spin. The truck is seen driving into frame (the whole truck is not in frame) to show that this truck is very much alive. The cruises of old continue.

Granny's Garden

A sign that reads "Granny's Garden" in focus amongst her plants. The sign in focus highlights her grandchildren as her "garden" amongst the plants that she maintains which become blurred in the foreground.

Red Light, Green Light

A green and red light during the Christmas season. The f-stop helped blur the background behind the green light to draw focus on the green light without eliminating the red light entirely.

Midwest Sunset

A Midwestern sunset with silhouetted trees to show the beauty of nature even in the winter. The silhouetted trees from the backlight help to show off the sunset by introducing a darker color to the bright colors of sunset.

Calf Kick

A calf is frozen in the midst of a kick. A fast shutter speed helped to contribute to this image. The framing draws all of the attention to the leg that is off the ground. Sometimes even calves want some personal space.
