Shades of Night: Colonial Williamsburg

"I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day."
- Vincent Van Gogh -


Welcome to the official sneak peak for Shades of Night: Colonial Williamsburg, my latest book project which is currently in production. All the images in the book were captured in mid-November of 2021while on a short getaway with my sweet Sally after most of the Covid-19 restrictions had been lifted.

The theme of the book, and the images within, showcase Colonial Williamsburg at night, empty of people. The images are dark and foreboding with the only light coming from the carriage lights and candles of the homes and shops and the vintage street lights. Chilly and silent, I felt I had stepped back in time. It was walkabout like no other I have experienced.

Enjoy!!

Food Coloring

As much as I love black-and-white images, I’m always torn between black-and-white and color when it comes to food photography. As an example, this post contains two food images captured at Ocean City, Maryland in the fall of 2021. Each image has a black-and-white treatment and a color treatment. If I had to give the treatments a one word description, one would be Artful. The other would be… Yummy! Any guess as to which is which? :) lol

Enjoy!!
