During our trip to Chernobyl, we got a chance to visit this children’s summer camp outside of Pripyat in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. Like everything in the Zone, mother nature is taking over. There is something beautiful about this scene, in a sad way.

When I pulled this photo up tonight before posting it, MJ said…”you don’t have colorful Easter eggs for them, but you have colorful chairs in that photo”. So I’m going with it!!
I took this photo on the east side of Bonaire at a Kite Surfing spot. The colors and textures caught my eye as we explored the area. Just looking at this photo, makes we want to go back. What an amazing country!! Everything about it is just beautiful.

This summer camp outside of Chernobyl had dozens of these little cabins with fun little murals painted on their sides. We spent a little time walking around exploring what must have been a great time back when it was operational. The camp sits on a hill overlooking the Pripyat River. This was probably a very happy place prior to the nuclear disaster.

I need to get out and take some more Pittsburgh photos soon. Believe or not, I’m running out of photos to process and post from my great city. I took this photo last fall on a photo walk with Brad and Dave. I didn’t get a ton of wonderful photos that night, but I had a good time. This one was taken just past sunset.

Sunset in Pittsburgh
I had a great experience today. I was given the opportunity to photograph the Pittsburgh Steelers and Detroit Lions joint practice at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe Pennsylvania. I’ll also be shooting their preseason game on Friday night, but capturing images of the practice was cool. It’s a different environment from the games and it was great getting to experience it.
As most people know, I’m a Lions fan. Unfortunately, watching the teams practice against each other today, showed me how much better the Steelers are compared to the Lions. I’d like to say it was the other way around, but…. That’s just not the case. The Steelers looked better in just about every drill. I’ll just have to hope this practice wasn’t an accurate reflection of how the Lions season will play out.
About this photo: As you can guess, it is the great Antonio Brown from today’s practice. It looks like a studio photo with the clean, clear background. But that’s just how it came out with a cloudless sky today. It’s not the typical sports photo, which is why I like it. What do you think? Do you like or dislike it?

I captured this scene on the beach in downtown Philipsburg, St. Maarten. What a great little city. I want to live in a city where one block from the main street you have a world class beach, sun, and amazing year round weather.
