    This was a 2024 graduation shoot for a student who was accepted into CBU. I had this shot in mind for quite some time - wanting to shoot a duo tone photo, chanelling retro StarTrek/William Shatner vibes. This student/model was perfect. Although it does not reflect a graduation photo, I used both the blue and gold of CBU to bring meaning into this portrait.

    Thank you for considering my photo for Photo of the Week! I have a number of bottle brush trees in my back yard, and birds love the blossoms when they bloom in the Spring. I usually see numerous hummingbirds and sparrows, but I saw this gorgeous bird one afternoon resting in the branches. I was able to get a couple of shots off before it flew away.

    This blossom was on a small Magnolia tree sheltered from the wind and weather on Bald Head Island. When I spied this blossom the sun light was beginning to illuminate the petals. Time time spent waiting for the pictorial moment gave me time to more deeply appreciate the beauty of this transient blossom. Taken with a Nikon D850, tripod, 70-200 in close distance. Single image-no stacking.
