New flash based site

My new flash based site has been live for a few weeks now.
It features four portfolio sections: corporate, industrial, architecture, and "for kicks".
All the images can be viewed at full screen ( up to a 30" monitor ) if you like.
What I like best is that I can make any changes to the site myself, without a web master.
This means new images more often .... so I need to get out and shoot !
Summer can be slow, so my Kicks section may see more action for awhile ....

San Antonio Riverwalk

Last week I was on an Annual Report assignment in San Antonio.

I had a couple of hours before the first shot was scheduled.

I spent the morning photographing some of the Riverwalk area. It was a glorious spring morning and I was happy I had flown in the night before, giving me this opportunity.

Shops and cafe's dot the riverside, with arched foot bridges every few hundred feet.

So, here are a few images of my morning there.

Frigid photo shoot !

I just did a shoot for an aviation fuel company at our airport. With wind chill somewhere around zero degrees.

My gloves were off a large part of the time in order to adjust the camera properly.

The client wanted to show the re-fueling operation as well as a pilot with crew around a jet.

Here are a couple of their favorites. The sky had to be faked as we had heavy overcast sky.

Duke Energy shoot

I recently completed a two day shoot for Duke Energy at their new Envision Center facility. 

Essentially, it's a warehouse that has been converted into a "small town" to showcase new technology for energy delivery.

Printing press shoot

Yesterday I completed a shoot for German printing press manufacturer ConPrinta.

This unit measures 100 ft. in length and is used to print packaging for products made by HP among others. I used two monolights in addition to the available light.

Photo of the day (evening)

The subject of this shoot was actually the building behind the bus. 

Laser makes for cool shoot

My latest assignment was shooting a metal cutting laser.

Mazak, the company who builds the machines needed some images of the laser in action.

I needed to use my Nikon's full 5 frames per second burst in order to capture the right moment.
