Grockles! (Santorini Portfolio Now Online)
Well, I’ve finally finished processing my shots from last year’s trip to Santorini. As expected, lots of blue church domes and sunsets over the caldera, but a few more unusual images as well. The sunset light there really is quite Continue reading

Sorry there was no photoblog post last week, but I was busy processing my shots from the wedding of my good friend, Dave. Here’s a third (and, I promise, final) “Caldera Sunset” shot from my Santorini trip. This one works, Continue reading
