Nothing like a carnival
It’s one of those de rigueur photographer things. Why? Well, it’s, as the saying goes, ducks on a pond-fish in a barrel-the proverbial piece of cake. The people, the lights, the motion, it’s one of those perfect events.
And for me, as someone who has always been obsessed with illustrating motion in still images, this kind of twilight event is a dream come true.
So yeah, I had a great time shooting at the LCHS carnival this evening. I’m really happy with a lot of the shots.
Speaking technically, almost all of this stuff (except for the fireworks shots) were hand-held. The magic of the D300 sensor is something to behold.
Enjoy a taste of the midway…

I’ve been so busy working
I haven’t spent any time here talking about it.
So, starting from right after the Sertoma BBQ, here is quick wrap up of the last two weeks.
If you click on the link in the intro to each image, you can view the entire gallery from which that image came.
One shot from the 27th Annual Fiesta (a fantastic party by the way).
Ricky Calderon, owner of Club Rumbha was kind enough to invites me in to shoot some images for a project for the City. Club Rumbha is a great little club and if you want to do some Salsa, it’s the place. From what I understand, Ricky even offers to teach beginners some steps.
I just started a new project for JSID focused on one Northeastern Lancaster neighborhood. There’ll be a lot more in this set soon.
Velaska Jewelry is a new client and I’m working on a bunch of different things for owner, Kathryn Pearce. These are just some initial tests. We’re working on defining a style and then I’ll be shooting a good representation of her many designs.
I managed to wake up early enough to catch some shots at this year’s Red Rose Run.
Last Saturday’s 300 North Queen Street Block Party was fun. Here’s one of my favorite shots.
One of my favorite things about Lancaster is the Lancaster Police Mounted Patrol. I’ve been lucky to befriend two of the officers and they’re always good for a great shot when they are out on duty. I stopped by the paddock a few days ago to see what’s new and check on one of the horses, Zeke (below) who has literally come back from death’s door and is now back on duty with Officer Wayne McVey. We’re all really glad Zeke and Officer McVey are back to work.
Most recently, as part of that new JSID project I mentioned above I got to shoot inside Grace Lutheran Church. It’s a beautiful church. Here are just a few of the great images I managed grab in a mere half hour inside.
A week in the life
Here’s what I’ve been doing for the last week.
First Friday, a shot from Gallery 141…
The second wedding I’ve shot in two decades (I don’t shoot weddings, this was an exception for a very good friend)…
Team WeeBee racing at Lanco…
Equal rights rally…
Kids visiting the Lancaster Museum of Art’s Maurice Sendak exhibit…
A shot from a lunch promoting the Convention Center where a video that I made from my images of Lancaster was shown…
Artistry In Motion vintage car show…
YWCA’s Race Against Racism…
McCaskey High School Senior art show at Building Character (which, by the way, was a wonderful show)…
Vintage Datsun 1600 being worked on at WeeBee Audio/Video…
Shooting a TV commercial at WeeBee Audio/Video (Watch Blue Ridge cable, channel 11, Sunday’s at 3:00 p.m. to see the commercial)…
That’s a busy week.
Two things stand out here.
One, I love my work. Look at what I get to do.
Second, Lancaster is an amazing place. The variety of things to do in any given week is simply astounding. The beautiful surroundings, the friendly people. I love my city.
Today I’m working on a jewelry catalog and web site, a catalog for a racing products manufacturer and work for the rest of the my regular clients.
And, as Linda Ellerbee used to say, so it goes…
Dinner and a show
I attended the Sertoma BBQ Kick Off Dinner. It was a great, extremely fun show. Not unusual in that I’ve yet to meet a Sertoman who didn’t know how to have fun. They’re a wonderful group.
I can’t wait until the BBQ next month. By the way, I am setting up something special for the BBQ. It’s basically about 36 hours long from start to finish and I’ll be there shooting it from start to finish and, and here’s the fun part, I’m working on a way to post hourly updates to the site. So you’ll be able to see the entire event almost live.
The Sertoma BBQ is unique in so many ways but it’s also one of the most visually interesting event in Lancaster.
You can look at the images from last year’s BBQ here.
The complete gallery from the Dinner is here and below, a few shots from their after-dinner production, “Chickens of the Caribbean”.
CHL April
A shot from April meeting of the Creative House of Lancaster at Annie Bailey’s.
Just because it’s pretty
Sometimes (well, most of the time) that’s excuse enough to take the picture.
The Conestoga River.
