There is just so much dust everywhere. Actually I'm amazed even more at cameras because so many times I feel like the surface is spotless but then in the photo it shows all the tiny particles I can't even see with naked eyes.

Great news about your work, Joe. Hope it starts paying for itself soon!

Editing out dust on pure white or pure black surfaces, like plexi, is very easy. Also, on pure white, when the image starts to get really out of focus, the dust kind of disappears into the bokeh.

Wood grain, which is inconsistent and unique, is what is the most difficult and takes the longest.

Yeah, I can feel your pain in this. I have quite a few dark wood surfaces.

On this first day of snow in New York I'd like to share this landscape from trip to Colorado in 2006. I always felt there is something masculine in this view. In this sense it is quite complementary to the "feminine" landscape from the Great Sand Dunes national park which I don't think I shared yet.

I never thought about landscapes that way, it's an interesting point of view.

Here's an image I shot for my book to be used as a spread. I shot it as one image, although I guess I could have shot the bottle and glass separately and then layered them together, but ...

One thing I was not expecting were the out-of-focus sparkles on the martini glass. I hit the glass with a high powered snooted strobe, and there must have been imperfections in the glass that caught the light differently.

I think it adds a nice touch.

I used the Rodenstock 90mm HR-W (one generation prior to the current version, HR-SW) on an Arca RM3Di. No, to almost, no cropping in all of them. Also, since I am looking down, I have the back shifted up 20mm, to partially correct the perspective, and the lens tilted back 5 degrees to get the glass/bottle completely in focus.
