With these shots, I try and catch events as they unfold using a wide array of settings and lighting, then learn from the results.

"Artist Exposed", I asked permission to shoot this photo. This painter was almost unaware of me, really. He was so focused on his moment he hardly acknowledged the request. I like how apparent distance and depth are, and how multi-layered this shot is.
"Dinner Lights of Aloha Mixed Plate", the fun thing about photography is that the result is much greater that the sum...The exposure, light and composition here lead to a shot that looked much cooler on film, than in real life. The warmth, movement, and un-illumniated foreground umbrella helped this shot work.
"Wine Glass - Pinot Noir", Playing with light, focal light made these great tones seep into the stem.
"Dawn Commute2-Bodega Crab Season", opening day of sport crab season 2012. Ironically, this shot is taken from the same place as "Milky Way Over Bodega" but it was dawn, not dusk and I was facing east, not west on Bodega Highway. The stream of traffic was nearly continuous which is off for this country pasture road. Later that day, i went out with Cap. Dan Kjeldson and came home with stuff pots. The photo "Cambron and the Starfish" was taken later that day as well.

"Light Saber at the Campfire" - Family camping trip on Maui's north shore. Cambron, my 6 year old son held the LED flashlight into the smoke from the campfire while my 2 year old walked in circle with her headlamp. Fire light in the back from a group of local boys partying loudly.
Family camping trip on Maui's north shore. Fun with a flashlight, the moonlight, car lights, fire light.
Family camping trip on Maui's north shore. Moonlight, my 6 year old with a red flashlight, distant campfire and a headlamped group gathering in the distance.
Family camping trip on Maui's north shore. Almost surreal, like a painting, but this time lapse shot is a photo - I swear.
