This week I decided to do a quick self portrait.
This time I had two challenges. First was getting my eyes into sharper focus, as the camera kept finding my goatee and knuckles first. Second I tweaked the aperture to properly blur the background, as well as positioned myself to block out the bulk of the [...]

Photo Friday: 35
Photo Friday: Bitty Ball
This week’s Photo Friday is a bit lazy. My son’s park district basketball team had a game tonight, and we had a few other things going on so I figured this would be easier than getting creative.
I’ve never been a big basketball fan, but it’s fun watching the little guys run around and do their [...]
Photo Friday Saturday: Victory
This week’s Photo Friday pic comes from the Throwdown IV MMA event in East Peoria Saturday night. We were treated to almost 30 great fights, and my friends and I had a great time.
This is the third Throwdown event I’ve attended at the East Peoria Event Center, and the event gets a little better every [...]
Photo Friday: Game Night!
I took this picture on Friday, but I was out running around all weekend and haven’t had a chance to upload them until now. This time I used our family game night to grab the picture.
I really liked the setup for this one, but I wish I had the focus on her face instead of [...]
Photo Friday: Candlelight

Photo Friday: Airtime
I’m posting a day late, but this pic was actually taken last night at the Academy of Okinawan Karate’s graduation.
Judo is something I hope to work on myself, soon. There is just enough Judo in the Shuri-ryu curriculum to give karateka a taste, but the AOK offers a dedicated Judo class as well. Once I [...]
Photo Friday: Worn
Yeah, I’m leaving in five hours to pick up Cullen Bunn and head to VisionCon, but I still took a some time to bust out this week’s Photo Friday.
Photo Friday: Cravings
I may have to get up in four and a half hours to head out to the airport, but I’ve decided I’m not going to let Photo Friday get derailed on its second week. I can always sleep on the plane, right? Sure, I snore, but the engines will be louder.
For this Photo Friday I [...]
Photo Friday: Snow
Last year, the goal was to do more with photography.
Oops.
So this year I figure I best start strong. Rather than messing with a focused theme like 52 Weeks or joining another group, I dreamed up Photo Friday. Every Friday, I’ll post a picture or two of whatever strikes me at the time. To get rolling, [...]
