These photos are from all over, ranging from my uncles house on Long Island, Albany and the greater Capital Region, the Buffalo area, and Lansing, Michigan. Looking into the future, I want to concentrate on getting more shots from day to day life, explicit purpose photography is great, but I want to get more practice with off the cuff and candid photos which I guess I can make a New Years resolution.

This picture was taken late in the summer on a wonderful day that I spent driving through the Adirondacks looking for foliage, unfortunately it was a bit early for dramatic colors. On my way home I swung by an old spot from my childhood where I would go with my Dad. They recently built a new park at the falls and this picture was taken while I was exploring.

This past Thanksgiving was spent as my Uncle's house in the Hamptons. It was a wonderful couple of days enjoying the lovely fall weather, an uncharateristically quiet town, and great family!

The Capital Plaza is always a very cool scene for photos, it houses a lot of state employees as well as the state mueseum and the Egg theatre. The egg was listed on the 50 Strange Buildings of the World list done by the blog Village of Joy(Check out the list @ http://villageofjoy.com/50-strange-buildings-of-the-world/).

This picture was kind of the stimulus for this whole blog, I was in a new area and decided to go out and get the lay of the land. While out the sunset and scenery was perfect for a photo session and as they say, the rest is history.

This past May my good friend got married, it was a wonderful wedding and everyone had a blast. This photo was taken while waiting for the bride and groom to exit the church. Thanks are owed to my friend Nick for posing in this picture.

Part of the reason I became interested in photography was due to my love of cars and wanting to capture that love. So now when I am home and bored I go shine up the car and find some cool spots to take photos. Growing up in an area with a lot of histroy and cool backdrops helps to make up for the shortcomings of my rather mundane form of transportation, and its presence in the foreground.

This picture is just plain cool, I really like how the shadow turned out and the way the web is lit.

This shot was taken after a big snow strom in Buffalo last winter. It was a late storm with warmer temperatures which left the snow very heavy and clingy. It made everything look very cool, including this pavillion.

I think this shot is a great representation of winter that everbody can relate to. Those especially frosty mornings make you glad to be warm and cozy inside.

This picture was taken while my family and I were driving back home from my Uncle's house during Thanksgiving break. We decided to leave in the afternoon to avoid New York City traffic. There was a great sunset that evening and I was able to capture it from the passenger seat while we cruised down the highway.
There it is my top 10 for 2010, Enjoy.
