River Town
The Elizabeth River is a busy, urban, working river. Standing at Waterside (in the background with blue roof), one can watch an array of ships, including freighters, war ships, working tugs and an occasional tall ship flying a foreign flag. Home to one of the busiest harbors on the East coast and the largest naval base in the world, Norfolk, Virginia is proud of its nautical history.
Angels in America II
Angels in America
These images were shot at Oak Grove Cemetery, Norfolk, Virginia, mid-day, the worst time of day to shoot. However, that is when I could slip away. I intend to return soon -late afternoon- to get some really great light and beautiful images.

Easter
There are many beautiful old churches, cathedrals, and temples in Norfolk. This is one of my favorites – The Basilica of the Immaculate Conception. Happy Easter.

Navy Town
These are just some random scenes from downtown. The boat was shot from across the river in Old Town Portsmouth. Sometimes, a not so perfect exposure can be rescued by employing a special filter during post-processing. In the case of the oil filter, the print can be made to look like an oil painting (sort of). It’s fun playing with these filters.
