Experimenting with Steel Wool Photography
Oh, the fun of playing with fire… Headed out to the country with a friend this past weekend to experiment with lighting steel wool on fire and seeing what kind of imagery we might obtain. I must say, we weren’t disappointed. A couple rounds of perfecting the packing of the steel wool in the whisk…

West 7th St. Bridge, Fort Worth TX
Met friends for another bridge outing, this time in Fort Worth, the West 7th Street Bridge. I’m happy with these pictures but didn’t quite get the trailing lights I was hoping for.

Photo Day: Downtown Grapevine
Spent a half-day tromping around Downtown Grapevine for some picturesque fun with friends… I was shooting with a Nikon D3200, mostly an 18-55 lens. My favorite from this trip is probably “Elvis has NOT left the building” reflection photo. A 30-second video collage on speed can be found below and the full Photo Album on…
