You have to love fall light.
Doors
October 5, 2008 | Filed Under Landscapes | Leave a Comment

The doors of O’Shaughnessy Hall catch some nice light on fall mornings. In this case I chose to put more emphasis on the doors by using one of our new lenses - a Canon 45mm tilt shift lens. Tilt shift lenses allow you to shift the plane of focus left or right, up or down. So instead of the plane of focus running parallel with the camera’s sensor or film, it actually runs at an angle. This produces the “slice of focus” effect you see here.
If you’re really interested, you can find out more about tilt-shift photography here.
Arctic Explorer

Most of the folks who read this blog are from Minnesota which means that most of you already know this is arctic explorer Will Steger. I photographed Will for the latest issue of St. Thomas Magazine. We went with a different photo for the cover, but I’m still fond of this one, largely because of what you can’t see.

Not too much to say about this one. Sometimes it’s best just to shut up and push the damn button.
