From the yearly archives: 2009
Photos of Dohee Lee, dancer Sherwood Chen, Tatsu Aoki on shamisen, bass and taiko, and Francis Wong on sax from a live shoot at Noh Space. The images were used for promotional material for a set of performances at Yerba Buena Center.
Black and white and color still life macro images of flower petals and a maple leaf.
Some color and black and white still life photos of a small plant stalk.
Photos from a concert in April 2009 featuring Quetzal, a latin rock band out of East LA.
Black and white photos from a hidden beach along Highway 1, CA. Ultra wideangle shots taken with the 14-24mm 2.8. Dreamy selective focus shots taken with the 135mm f/2.
Photos of the Hipline Studio belly dance production performed at La Pe?a in Berkeley. For these shots I often used a slow shutter speed to blur the movement.
Photos from a table tennis demonstration held in Pleasanton in association with the Tri-Valley Table Tennis Club. Rising star Ariel Hsing was featured.
There’s something about flamenco that really connects with me. Maybe it’s the rhythms or the dancing or the sheer passion and intensity. Whatever it is, I always feel moved after a performance, and this night was no exception. Here are some photos of Antonio Rey, Mara Rey and Pedro el Granaino from Spain.
A photo shoot shot indoors using lighting that would resemble natural light. This shot was later composited with a different background.
Sometimes I come across things that I just want to share with everybody. If you have not seen this short yet, you must watch it. Yes it is 16+ minutes long, and that is a long time to devote to anything found on a blog post, but I have to tell you that it was the best 16+ minutes of my day today.
