Some shots I took in November, with Elena in Stratford, Connecticut. You can see the silos from the Metro-North New Haven Line.

    First of all, with an eye like yours, you need an SLR. When is this happening? Second of all, where are pictures of Elena? If I had a stunning wife like her I’d register omgelena.com and post a new pic every day. Just sayin’.

    Thank you and thank you! Agreed on the camera and the wife. Need permission on both.

    They are lovely. The light on the second is fantastic. Light is a hard thing to capture, I think, perhaps more so than a strong composition.

    Thanks Kris, it is hard to get right. Here, the sun was pretty low in the sky when I started.
