Pin-up meetup by the promenade at Riverside Park. Shoot started 45 minute before sunset. Very difficult lighting to work with because we were at the West side. But I think most of the shots came out pretty good. Thanks to the wonderful and enthusiastic group of models.
Models:
1. Mallorie
2. Dolly McDermott
3. Martina
All photographs were shot in Raw Format with my Canon 50D.
I used either a 85mm @ f/1.8 Lens, ISO100.

The first weekend of the year in which I was walking about in my t-shirt and breaking a sweat. At the high 70′s, a day that was beg to be spend outdoor. I spend my with my Digital Photography Workshop Meetup group at the Queens Botanical Garden. The theme was obviously trees flowers. However, while rest of the group was focusing on shooting petals and filaments, I was side tracked by all the little toddlers that was playing around by the green field. Kids portraits are the best because they are less conscious of the camera and the need to look good. They are cute regardless. Luckily, the parents of their kids was kind enough for me to shoot a couple of portrait for them. They were quite please with the quality of the photo. One parent actually pull out her purse to pay me. No, I didn’t take her money. All photos of children had been emailed to their parents.
I hope you enjoy these photos.
All photographs were shot in Raw Format with my Canon 50D.
I used either a 16mm – 35mm f/2.8 Lens or the 100mm f/1.8 Lens, ISO100 to 200.

The first photography outing for my Digital Photography Workshop meetup group.
While most people were at home watching the SuperBowl, I decided to organize a photo meetup to document the parade in Chinatown celebrating the Lunar New Year. It was a mad house, was one of the most difficult events I’ve covered in a long time. Given the fact that I’m much shorter than most of the people in the crowd didn’t help either. All in all, I got some 50+ presentable photographs from more than 150 original photos.
Along the way, I ran into some old friends with their families. So some of the photos are of them.
