I was skeptical, and against digital cameras initially. The first ones were pretty crappy. How nice it is to have a high quality, tiny, light-weight digital camera in my front pocket at all times. I take alot of pictures. This series feature the sun in a variety of settings, but not necessarily setting. This first one is from a photo I took in Pittsburgh around x-mas time. Nikki and I were staying with my kid in her old-timey brownstone apartment. Nikki was working as an extra in Kevin Smith's up and coming movie. It had been sunny, but a cold front was moving in, a mist of ice formed in the upper atmosphere. I looked out the window and saw the sight I painted. It wasn't the sun in plain view but a muted glow behind that spooky tree. I used the telephoto lens to bring me closer to the upper branches.
