WATER BEADS

Shot with 200 mm lens from
10 feet away.

HAPPY GO LUCKY

Shot with wide angle lens from across
the street. Frame showed a whole line
of schoolkids.  Fine-grained film on a
sunny day allowed me to crop this
tiny portion

SCHOLAR DOG

DANCING MAILBOXES

FIRST PRIZE WINNER
Popular Photography monthly contest
December 1995

Saw it, framed it, and grabbed it.  Two
hours later the post office removed the mailboxes.

HARVARD SQUARE, BOSTON

Street shot.  In addition to mass and line,
part of composition is the dynamic of mental
interaction.  The implied sight lines of the two women
observing the hugging couple form compositional
lines that hold the picture together.

GRINNING GIRL

A small amount of flash pops her
out from the background.  This
technique works especially well on
an overcast day.
