I was shooting long exposure skyline / pier shots, the couple were sat on that bench when I arrived. Some 30+mins later they were still there - looking out across the lake and totally absorbed by one another's conversation.

If only stories could fuel the world.

I recently took part in a world wide photo walk organised by renowed Adobe Photoshop & Lightroom specialsit Scott Kelby, well actually he hosts the event globally but the walk itself was organised by Coree Coppinger, so many thanks to her for all her efforts!

The date set for the walk co-incided with Brady Street Days, a day long festival held annually on Milwaukee's Brady Street. It's a great event with tons of interesting happenings like WWE style wrestling, BMX stunt bikes and camel rides as well live music great food and plenty of refreshments! - what a great place to do some street photography!

Here's a few of the images from the day....






Even the pets are cool on brady street ..



but for some the excitment was just too much!




Look out below!



After all that excitement it was time to cool down and have an nice chilled refreshment..


this is when the party really got going with music and dancing into the wee small hours.


...on the CoPA Gallery Night Members Exhibit

Supporting the 22-year-old Milwaukee tradition of Gallery Night and Day CoPA is hosting it's members exhibit at the P.H. Dye House in the Historic Third Ward.

With more than 200 images from over 80 artists, it's an amazing collection of photographic art and is sure to hold interest for both the experienced art connoisseur and beginning admirer.

The three images I'm showing explore the polarities of form and space, featuring an unseen juxtaposition of light, as each element was shot during the day (with the exception of the moon in the loch composite).


The show is open again on 23rd & 24th of April - so come along it would be great to see you!

I really like the saying "live for the day" inspiring you take hold of opportunities, explore all the things that you can and beat the sunset. However, I also like that there is a promise in tomorrow.
