Sometimes a cup of tea in the perfect cup is all it takes to make the morning great... #canon5dmarkiv #tea

A fun thing to do these days is to recreate photographs years later. I wonder if I could get these two to do a redo of this... Ryan & Tyler.. #TBT. 1994

Ya, go ahead, comment on my sneaks. Ryan and I. Pretty certain this was taken along the Mystic river in Medford in 1993. . #TBT

Came across a number of older photo’s that I had scanned years ago. I wonder if I ever shared this shot with Steve & Linda. I sure hope so. If i had to guess, this was taken in the min-90’s ... #TBT Just figured out based on another shot, this was taken in 1994..

Victor is taking a serious interest in photography. I think he has a future. #canon5dmarkii #cooperhawk #canon50mm #canon50mm14

Photography has been something I have enjoyed for about 30 years. I remember my first camera, a Chinon 35mm film. That camera took fantastic pictures. It literally was the camera that launched what has become at time, an obsession. These days, I truly flirt with my camera’s. Based on how life is at the moment, I will pick one up, or not. The last two weeks i have made it a goal to take one every where I go. Here was a shot of the table located directly behind me at #coopershalk , though the reflection of window to my side.. They had no idea. Love these type of sneak shots. #canon5dmarkii #reflection

Tonight we had dinner at what has become one of our “traditions” when going out with out with Andrzej , Victor , Edyta & Szymon. It’s probably the only time we sit and talk. We have a rule, no phones out. This seems to be an impossible feat for one of them. Seems there is always mysteriously a reason to take it out to check on “this or that”. Despite that, the evening was enjoyable. Szymon is holding a wine glass here. No, he did not drink, it was a prop. Hopefully by the time he is legal, he will appreciate the time we worked hard to spend time together... #cooperhawk #celebration #canon5dmarkii

When I was a young boy and into my teens, there was a bond between all our friends that ran very deep. We would all look forward to getting together after a meeting or the “District Convention”, spending time at the Pewter Pot or if we were going to splurge, the Kowloon. As time has passed in this world, some are in our memories, never to be forgotten because they had a major impact on our lives and even brought forth life. It has been 3 years since a childhood friend and the mother of two of the most special people in my life has died. She is certainly in the hearts and minds of hundreds of people this time of year. More importantly, she in in the remembrance of the one who will make all things right again...

9/11/2005 : Because it’s always a good thing to be able to look back and have a laugh.. even at your own expense. Seem like Ryan did..Tyler? Well, he just nearly cried. I wonder what ever came of this fine piece of clothing. #boston. @love_being_mrsbrown @jamiebrown1026

Some kids are just naturally happy. Never looking for more than they should have and appreciate all that is given. This both comes with material things and with privilege and responsibility. Victor is just that type of kid. #naperville #napervillerwalk #canon5dmarkiv .

Was not planning to take pictures tonight, but I will be coming back to later this week. All the lights make for a challenge and a great backdrop. #naperville #napervilleriverwalk #canon5dmarkiv

I know it’s not even officially started, but can winter just pass us by so I can take this back out? I couple more days like today and I just might anyway! #968

This spot is probably one of the most popular spots to photography from in Naperville.... #napervilleriverwalk #naperville #portrait

It amazes me just how many places there are in such a small downtown (naperville) to use for backdrops. Here @edyta_brown begins to gain her color back after feeling a bit sick..

I have to say, she is a real trooper... Despite feeling under the weather, she still can put on a great smile and strike a pose. (With a bit of coaching from me :) )... #streetphotography

I think this couple was surprised that after taking a picture of the entire family, i suggested they step out and get one of just them two....

While taking a shot of @edyta_brown on the Riverwalk Bridge, a family asked if i could use her camera to take a picture of there family. After doing that, I asked if they minded if I took one with mine. This is one of the ones I delivered to them... I think I feel better about it they even do... #streetphotography

Meet Suri & Sara.. Two very nice folks we met today in Naperville... #streetphotography

Ventured out today and landed in downtown Naperville. It was amazing weather for mid-December and there were people all along the Riverwalk. We met this mom & daughter taking pictures. Suri (mom) was assisting her daughter (Sarah) with a photography project for school. Maybe it was due to taking my Dslr with me for the walk, they stopped me and asked a question... After helping out a bit, I asked if she minded being my day’s picture... Here it is. Of course I have a lot more of @edyta_brown .. coming up next.. #streetphotography

The last couple of weeks I have been invited to be included in “girls night out”. Now this is much more fun any “guys night out”.

Been working with Lightroom Mobile lately and really loving the fact I can work on pictures while @edyta_brown shops... this shot was taken way back in April . Really due for another karaoke party 🎤.
