Dr. Sanford Severin Portrait

A Portrait of my friend and client Dr. Sanford Severin and founder of the East Bay Eye Center in San Ramon. I met Dr. Sandy due to an eye issue I was having. It was a serious thing and at one point my vision in my right eye was at risk. To make a long story short, everything turned out fine for me and the good doctor and I have been friends ever since. I've worked on his book preparing a digital copy to put on his website which I built and you can find at trienergetics.net to review. Look back later, we are preparing some videos to go on Dr. Severin's blog as well.

This portrait was shot in his office with my old Canon D40 with one light. Used Lightroom for the basics and OnOne software for touch-ups and effects.

Top of the Mark

Image
A San Francisco cable car climbs California street to the top of Nob Hill by the Mark Hopkins hotel on the left. I liked the sunlight coming in from the top right corner and used that to focus the attention on the cable car by blowing that out some and adding a bit of glow. I used On1 Software Filters for this one. I also like how it's sharp at the cable car and then fades toward the upper corner. I also added a vignette called the Big Softy to darken the bottom edges. You can see this shot on my Flickr page at:  https://www.flickr.com/photos/97777205@N03/19951019005/ Skip Kuebel, Photographer skiptown@comcast.net

A day on The Rock

Image
I've lived near San Francisco most of my life and had never taken the Red & White cruise to Alcatraz, although I had always wanted too, but it never worked out. Alcatraz started out as a Civil War era fort, then military prison and finally a Federal Penitentiary, for the worst of the worst, including Al Capone, the Birdman of Alcatraz, Machine Gun Kelly and more. When I was around 9 years old 3 convicts had escaped the island while we were visiting the city and were never heard from again. Most thought they were drowned and carried out to sea due to the cold water, powerful currents and rip tides that the bay flushes out to sea daily. But... they are not 100% sure they didn't make it. The man-hunt had always captured my imagination, so I throughly enjoyed my day on The Rock! :D I used NIK filters and OnOne software plus Lightroom on these.

Container Ship vs. Alcatraz

Container Ship vs. Alcatraz , a photo by skip.kuebel on Flickr. Like King Kong vs Godzilla, this giant container ship passes just in front of Alcatraz island in the San Francisco Bay. The ship is almost the same size as the old prison island. I shot this near the St. Francis Yacht Club in San Francisco. Skip Kuebel, Photographer skiptown@comcast.net
