An un-wintry photo

With snow forecast here in the next couple of days, thoughts turn to summer. This photo was taken last summer at Key Largo in the Florida keys. This photo portrays exactly what it was like to be there. A snapshot of a perfect moment.

Remains of the Day


This photo is my one photographic claim to fame, published in Digital Photographer (December, 2006 issue). Their website describes how to submit photographs to the magazine and the types of photos they are looking for. You would be doing it for the novelty of having your photo published, as they don't offer cash or prizes for readers photo. Just think, you can leave the magazine subtly open at the page on the coffee table, for friends to discover (not that I would ever dream of doing such a thing).

The above photo is my first and only try at the technique. A lightbox is simple to make (15 minutes) and made from a cardboard box and a few sheets of paper. If it turns out not to be outdoor photgraphy weather this weekend, why not try building one and experimenting.
