Our Kind of Town

Posted by AdminJPN on January 21, 2022

As native Washingtonians we are blessed with beautiful architecture and historical places both in the City and in the surrounding towns and countryside. Famous places like the historic City of Winchester, Fredericksburg, Old Town Alexandria and Williamsburg in Virginia to the beautiful Annapolis and Eastern Shore of Maryland. As lovers of historic architecture, the Pedestrian Mall in Old Town Winchester with its quaint streets make a perfect choice for property and business alike. Old towns have wonderful buildings with high ceilings, great light and perfect locations for photographers. This image is one of our favorite streets for studios and storefronts and if an established photography studio was not already there, we might just have to move in a beautiful building across the street. As they say, great minds (and photogs) think alike!

An Infrared Winter’s Tale

Posted by AdminJPN on January 15, 2019

YESTERDAY the fields were only grey with scattered snow,
And now the longest grass-leaves hardly emerge;
Yet her deep footsteps mark the snow, and go
On towards the pines at the hills’ white verge.

I cannot see her, since the mist’s white scarf
Obscures the dark wood and the dull orange sky;
But she’s waiting, I know, impatient and cold, half
Sobs struggling into her frosty sigh.

Why does she come so promptly, when she must know
That she’s only the nearer to the inevitable farewell;
The hill is steep, on the snow my steps are slow—

Why does she come, when she knows what I have to tell?

Melting Blues of Amelia Island

Posted by AdminJPN on September 1, 2018

Melting blues and greens of ocean sunrise at Amelia Island. These truly beautiful colors creating a mood of serenity and promise of warmth and a day of sunshine for frolicking on the beach and enjoying the ocean. Capturing the amazing colors of the sunrise, in all of its hues, is a favorite for this photographer. Photographing sunrise in HDR/DRI bracketed allows for an abundance of color and light capture which is the best for sunrise-sunset. Capture the hues, capture the light! This is another image in our “Waterscapes Art on Canvas” from the “Ocean Phototour.” @jacyjoypals for @HDRCHIC
