Laura Captain
Biography
I'm a photographer and candle maker in sunny south Florida, USA and I'm very excited to see what I can do with ClickASnap. Will be posting more photos soon, so much to do & so little time. :)
PHOTOGRAPHY:
As a photographer I prefer to make the most of my camera and of the moment at hand when taking a photo. I take the time to really look at my subject and find the best feature or unique quality that will capture its essence. Also, you know when you are looking around and you see something and you just stop and think, there's something here, there's a photo here! I love those moments. Uniqueness, colorful photos and striking black & whites catch my eye.
TECH STUFF:
I like Nikon and Olympus digital cameras, that's all I have used for the last several years and I prefer to shoot raw files or even high quality jpgs. I do minimal editing to my photos, I go with my gut.
Feel free to Like, Share, Comment and of course Purchase.

Irene Carson3 days agoI have never heard of Dry Fog, and search renders results that are too scientific for me. Pretty picture, though, with the fog separating the layers, and just a touch of pink. -
Joe Lightheart2 days agoThank you, Irene. You never heard of a dry fog before, because I made it up! I've not had much experience with fog except a couple of times that left everything coated in moisture. At this location there was quite a bit of fog and no moisture. I was expecting to have to wipe my lens, but never had to-thus the "dry fog" :) -
Irene Carson2 days agoThank you, Joe. Dry fog does exist, it is quite scientific, though. I grew up in N E Switzerland and we lived in what we charmingly called a "fog hole", i.e. if we were lucky, our father would drive us to the next town on a Sunday, which was at a higher elevation, and there was sunshine. Since living in Australia, fog has also become more of an interesting phenomenon, enough to get me out in below-comfort zone temperatures to take photos, well, at least when we lived right next to a pond.
