Cathedral of St. Matthew in 360 Degrees…Left, Right, and Up and Down

When I photographed the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle in Washington, DC last weekend, I also shot a sequence of 59 images (360 degrees around me plus up and down, making a 3D, 360-degree sphere), as I wanted to try a 360 degree panorama, as well as a stereographic (spherical) panorama.  Check’em out [...]

Cathedral of St. Matthew, Washington, DC

Idrissa and I spent two hours this weekend at the Cathedral of St. Matthew in Washington, DC. I love photographing ecclesiastical architecture, and there are a few locations in the city that I would love to shoot a wedding in: the Washington National Cathedral, the Franciscan Monastery, the Cathedral of St. Matthew, and the [...]

New Orleans: Garden District

I came home from New Orleans in August with an idea.  A stolen idea.  From the Ritz-Carlton Hotel.  The Ritz-Carlton Hotel in New Orleans has the most awsomest bed I have ever ever slept on.  It was so soft.  So fluffy.  So comfortable.  One evening, I lifted up the bed sheets to peek at [...]

Framing...unframing...framing...unframing...

So, I’m getting ready for my next exhibit, which I’m calling “Wanderlust.”  I have 20 pieces in the show; this time I’ve decided to exhibit a mix of my Alternative Reality, Architecture+Design, and Africa Dreamed/Spirit of Humanity collections.  You’d never guess how long it can sometimes take to get a single image ready for [...]
