Slowed Flow

Today's image was taken on a rainy, overcast day during my last trip to Alberta, Canada. Overcast days are optimal for capturing the movement of the water and slowing it to a silky flow. I felt that this technique gave this photo a feeling of a bit of motion, instead of a "snapshot of time" where everything is completely frozen. Through this I hope that this allows you to be drawn into the composition more, rather than being just a viewer.

Power and Light

This image was taken in Kansas City as well, in the Power and Light District. This particular evening, the lead singer of Boston was performing at the KC Live, which is at the far right of the image. I used a long exposure with the street in the foreground to capture the streaks of the headlights of the cars passing by.
