Artist Melody Sealman and a group of cohorts arranged thousands of plaster frogs on the 16th Street Mall this morning. The majority of the effort was spent on an arrangement outside the bus station at 16th and Market. The effort was mirrored in other cities as well. Sealman and her crew worked 8 months to [...]

I headed out to the Colorado Sport International Airshow today and had a pretty good time until my foot started bothering me. I think these shoes are toast ’cause I don’t have foot problems. I left early, before the 2nd air demonstration with the jets. Boo. Its probably for the best. The light wasn’t favorable [...]

Found this lil’ guy making his way across the sidewalk this morning while walking the dogs. So, naturally, I interrupted his walk to talk a few pics… he was rather confused about suddenly being in the air and moving around. Didn’t make him any less active, though. Lil’ bugger was hard to shoot ’cause he [...]

I would like it better if there was more of those great clouds in the negative space towards the lower left, but all in all its still fun.

The wife went off to run and naturally, I went off with my camera After all, why would I run? I wasn’t being chased.

I’ve been putting off doing something like this for a while now, but I finally broke down and signed up for a Zenfolio account so I can try and sell some of my photography. I figure its gotta be worth something to someone, right? So, photos.top-frog.com is the site and possibly, at this time, one [...]

Spent a nice day with the folks down at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs. The zoo is great. Damn nice for podunk little city like that The giraffe exhibit is certainly something to go for. They don’t like being touched but its damn cool to get that close to them. I’m a little [...]

I love heading out to the track and taking oodles and oodles of mediocre pictures of cars running around the track, but this weekend I found more to enjoy surrounding the race that actually in the races itself. The above photo was by far my favorite. I noticed the rider doing a few tricks on [...]

Sometimes I forget just how close to home I can stay and still have a good time with the camera. Just played around with the pups this afternoon after a bit of frustration at work (nothing serious, but self induced which made it that much worse) and managed to turn out one or two keepers [...]

Encountered a bee hive while out on our walk with the dogs earlier today and decided to go back for a good look with a camera. I’m glad that I did. Everybody was well behaved. I tried not to move quickly and I’d get landed on once in a while but all in all they [...]

When you hear a camera going while on a plane its a geek like me that can’t resist pressing his or her camera against the window and grabbing a few of the world going by. Sorry if I woke you. (not really!)

These are the signs of spring that I like to see… not the snowy ones. Unfortunately its bokeh like this that illustrates how badly my sensor needs cleaning…

From a trip to my parents’ house today. Colors have been boosted slightly, but weren’t faked. Those are from various colorful items in the background.

I noticed these some time ago but just haven’t gotten around to taking some time to admire them. Today turned out well with a slightly overcast background to give me a nice thick sky and a warm setting sun to light the shoes. Unfortunately, and I say that damn word too much in relation to [...]

A high key look at a jewelry box that belonged my grandmother. The only adjustments made were to sharpness, contrast and a slight straighten and crop. Other than that its pretty much straight out of the camera. There’s one little hair that I’d like to take out but I’m still learning the ropes on the [...]

My uncle pointed out a hummingbird nest out front today and in typical obsessive fashion I just had to get a decent shot of the little gal. Little being the operative word here. I don’t think she was more than 6″ in length. Shooting through the window produced less than desirable results so I headed [...]

And its downright cold. If you need to out side in Denver today take a Taun Taun to crawl inside of. You’re gonna need it!

I’ve been having fun just playing around with a single flash. This one is on the right track, but I blacked out the front a bit too much. I think with a little more fill up front this idea could be a winner. This is a Blue Snowball microphone, in case you’re interested. The wife [...]

And sticking to everything. Also from today, an icicle from the tree and snow covered leaves.

I was hoping that some people would check out my pics of the 2009 Denver Zombie Crawl, but didn’t expect this. Yeah, for some on Flickr this is just another day, but for me this is huge! Thanks to all who have viewed, commented and favorited my images.
