City Life @ night Gas Lamp




This post is for documental style of "city life" in San Diego after dark. More to come in weeks ahead, jsut a few more posted today.

The police seem apt to write tickets to the peddle cabbie's, now two nights in a row, several I have seen getting some ticket for who knows what, my opinion is there are way too many of these things on the streets, it is a plyith in the city, rude, crude, dirty, scummie, ill dressed bike cab persons, whom only want your money, asking everyone, "want a ride" is just plain ugly of such a great city of San Diego. Limit it to a few dozen out every night, not the 100's plus that are there on only one street alone, clogging traffic. My 2 cents

I took Francisco from Italy with me for a few photos, he is taking photo class in Italy, so I told him come along, his little point n shoot did a nice job of night photos, my canon5D set at 1600iso was a gem!! take a look at the latest posting for city life gallery, to see results.

Sunday is Dad's day, Natalie sent me a nice PDF card & specail suprise !! More in my next blog, on this. Great phone call from her this morning.

Photo is my first of a start of Neon, the guy in the photo is Francisco, his munchies at 1am were a slice of pizza for $3bucks.

I am off to the bike store, then the harbor area for a few photo of boats & such, look for my next posting soon

LITTLE ITALY PHOTO SHOOT


Well another day, in wonderful San Diego. Assignment for this photographer, to capture a mouth watering plate at my local Gelato bar, Pappalecco at the corner of State & Cedar, Little Italy. My favorite place for a cuppuccino in the morning, everyday, in fact.

This photo is to help my new friend Francisco aka owner, into the advertising market, as he has a wonderful menu, only it is printed on paper, you can not appreciate the food, looking at paper. Photo Dog to the rescue, a photo no tell will help with this.

My wonderful friend, glad to help him, take a look at the full photo shoot on our web site are more photos from this day, Gelato, interior photos, nite photo too, here is a sample of the presentation FOOD photo he will use to get more sales, aka money.

Open only a few weeks, go by & visit him, tell him Russell sent you.

Bon appetit



WELCOME to our STUDIO ZZZ , this is the first post starting a new business of being a professional photographer.



DOGS life seems easy to me right now, sleep all day, maybe play fetch with the master, get feed on time everyday, it is just an easy life, as a "dogs" life.



YES, We will be taking photos of "dogs" and their masters on this site, plus other types of speciality PHOTOS of my interest. We meet at the Balboa "Dog" Park, all most every Sunday morning, to take photos, AND at the dog beach in Solana Beach on low tide weekends by arrangement. This guy & gal were holding hands in "dog park" walking a black & a white dogs, great to be in love, spring is n the air!!



AERIAL PHOTOS for the Real Estate market, helping the REALTOR, sell the home, using professional equipment, WIDE angel lens, to show the home that is for sale in the best light, get the pund. Residential MLS photography for the web & print media.



We will explore the art of taking a Residential photo, to help the Realtors take better photos with a "point & shoot" and when they need a pro, they can call our Studio ZZZ for a professional photogrfapher.



Night Residential photography is a special interest, it takes time to set up the shoot, all for one special photo, that will present the home in a method, the buyers looking at the photo will pick up the phone & call the Realtor to see it.



You have a comment, like to know what or how to take a photo, drop a message here or e-mail, always glad to help.

My other interest in photography is FOOD photos for menus & advertising, this is a special art form, to create the mouth watering photos you wish to eat off the printed page, or decide to order from a menu, just from the photo.
