I've moved....

After several years of using Blogspot for my blog I've moved over to a new name and domain at Kate Hailey, so look for the continuing saga of my photographic journey here!

Thank you for reading!! :)

greenlake park, seattle.

I ventured to Greenlake park this evening to check out the Illuminata event, a celebration of the Autumn Equinox and I captured a few images before the sun set. It's actually been sometime since I've been to Greenlake, I really rather like it. There's a nice trail for walking, and views of the lakes. People can rent kayaks and rowers practice here. A nice little getaway in the midst of a busy city.

It really is nice to take a break, a stroll, and enjoy the surroundings!

These first two images were taken with my D90 and a 50mm lens, cropped with some minor tweaks in Lightroom 3.

This images is an iPhone photo, 8 images stitched together via the Autostitch app, then a quick run through BleachBypass for some colour tweaks and border.

portraits in Georgetown

Wednesday night I met up with some photographer friends, with a personal goal in mind to create a few portraits. Utilizing a simple, one light setup comprised of a Nikon SB-800 speedlight and an Apollo 28" softbox, we explored the Georgetown Trailer park for some interesting scenery to shoot in.
