Vincent Laforet

  One of the instuctors from school showed me his work and I feel in love with it.  I came accross his website again today and I am still amazed. (http://laforetvisuals.com)  3 images come to my mind that are fantaic.

• A Top of the Empire State Building.  (Not for anyone with a fear of heights.)
•  New York City Blackout  Taken during a black out in 2003
• Brooklyn cab-  A picture of flatbush just after a snow storm.

All of these are arial images.  When I hit the big time I plan on purchasing the Empire State Building image for the wall of my loft and/or studio.

Here is a great example where light really makes the photograph. Is gives my image shadows and creates dimension.

Can a candid shop being any more awesome? There is no way this would have looked the same if I staged this.

    

  

  

Transfer almost done

  My transfer to the new web server is almost done!  My email is back! I have to wait a little longer for everything to be “officially” done.

This is someone who I went to school with. 

It is too late now!

   I took the first step in moving my domain.  In about 5 days everything should be moved and I can state using my new web-page.  Please be patient while the move takes place.  You can click on the www.john-roy.com on the right of the screen.  I wish it was instant but it is not.

This was a very lucky “accident” I was zooming in while I was taking a series of pictures. When I saw the image on the dislplay afterwards, I almost deleted it, (I am glad I waited until i got home)

I entered another competition at camera club and won another ribbon. This image got second place. Not bad for a hail mary shot. I was sent out on Moody Street and was told to shoot circles and/or round “things” and this is what I can back with. I did “tweak” it a little in Photoshop but I kept the original theme of the image.

New blog address!

  I am in the middle of moving my web-page to a new domain and I had to redo my blog.  Thank God I was able to import my old blog here.  I will let everyone know when the official unveiling of www.john-roy.com is available.  In the mean time, click here to see my temporary site while everything is moved.
