I love the color the sky gets shortly after sunset, especially contrasted with the warm glow of tungsten lights. It is an amazing time to take pictures of cities and architecture.

Fine Art Photo at Dusk
Thursday, June 2nd, 2011Fine Art Photo: Hailstorm
Wednesday, May 11th, 2011We had a pretty awesome storm come through last night that dropped hail bigger than golfballs. My fine art photo of the week is of the approaching thunderhead that dropped hailed on us—just look at the vertical thrust of it!

Happy 4th of July!
Sunday, July 4th, 2010This photo was taken on a recent engagement session with Cody and Mike. We had a lot of fun in Minneapolis playing with some old cameras and sparklers. You can see more of the photos from their session by watching the video below.
God’s Easter Egg
Friday, April 2nd, 2010What a spectacular sunset tonight!
So many times it reminded me of the coloring on a marbled Easter egg, which is fitting since it is Good Friday. But this was far more complex as the clouds and sunlight were constantly changing—everywhere I pointed my lens was another stunning image. Maybe I will create a montage of the images I took for Easter. But for now, enjoy this abstracted closeup.
Surprise Sunshine

Fine Art Photo of the Week VIII
Friday, June 5th, 2009There is not much that beats a leisurely ambulation around a lake on a beautiful day, except when you can take that walk with the love of your life. That was the scene that sets up this picture. Although I thought it was pretty in color, I loved the play of light/dark and foresaw it in monotone—it reminds me of artwork by Piet Mondrian. My wife Lisa wrote about this same night on her blog at www.lisavalley.com (if you click the link you will also see the image in color).
