On Sunday, December 15th, Mohonasen took to the court at Hudson Valley Community Center for an exciting game against Ballston Spa. It was a hard-fought match, brimming with energy and determination from both teams. I brought my camera along to capture the action, and I’m thrilled with how some of the images turned out. They showcase the team’s hard work and the intensity of the game perfectly. Although the final score was 44-40 in favor of Ballston Spa, Morgan and […]
Last November, in addition to meeting some pretty awesome people, I had the chance to capture clever cosplayers at Saratoga’s Comic Con. I wasn’t able to snap as many photos as I usually do, but I’m pretty pleased with the shots I did get. I asked a couple of Deadpools to pose and they didn’t even hesitate to break out the hand hearts. This guy’s Redhood Cosplay was on point. The best I saw. I accidentally walked straight into this […]
A highlight of my 2024 was the chance to visit the Concord North Bridge in Boston. Not only is it a site with historical significance as the location of one of the first battles of the American Revolution and a powerful reminder of the past, but it also holds deeply personal, nerdy significance. Any devoted Fallout 4 fan knows this unassuming bridge inspired the design of the Sanctuary Hills bridge in the game—one of the most iconic and nostalgic locations […]
I spent a few hours experimenting with Image to View A.I. Renders and I came out with a handful of decent starter videos. Hopefully more to come. Each render was made with the KlingAI tool, with the standard setting, generating a 6 second video. Image To Video Renders Grandparents Acting Up I figure a good place to start would be with my grandparents. This image was uploaded with the prompt: “Couple leans into each other and hugs.“ Continuing with the […]
Walt Disney World has always been a place of wonder and change, constantly evolving to offer new experiences. While I understand the need to keep the Parks fresh and exciting, I can’t help but feel a pang of sadness at the closure of Muppet Vision 3D. For me, it wasn’t just an attraction; it was a nostalgic anchor. As a kid, I wasn’t one for the more intense rides. The towering coasters felt a little too overwhelming. Instead, I gravitated […]
Last Friday, November 15th, my lady and I spent the evening exploring downtown Schenectady for their Art event. The city held festive charm, the streets lit by recently placed Christmas lights that perfectly complemented the creativity on display. From galleries showcasing local talent to vibrant murals tucked away on quiet streets, the event was a celebration of art and coffee. I brought my camera along to capture some of the magic, and these photos are a glimpse into what we […]
Disappointment My visit to Buttermilk Falls and Yatesville Creek was a bit disappointing—the falls were almost completely dry. I’ll need to come back in the spring, possibly just after the snowmelt, and hope for better luck. A Colored Rock While walking along the creek bed, I came across a painted rock. I’m always intrigued by the things people leave behind, wondering whether they were placed intentionally or forgotten by accident. Videos
A collection of photos I captured from the intricate model train display at The Altamont Fair
Here are a few photos from Fandom Fest August 2024. Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Without a doubt, these two were my favorite pair during the cosplay contest. Not only did this couple nail the look of Burt and Mary from the Disney film Mary Poppins, but they also sang a duet of “Jolly Holiday” that was spot on. The Rest The rest of the cosplay contest featured some impressive entries, showcasing the passion and effort of the participants. Most contestants were dressed as […]
First things first: Count Orlok’s Nightmare Gallery might not appeal to everyone, but for horror cinema enthusiasts, it’s a must-see. While it isn’t the largest attraction around, it’s evident that the collection is crafted with a deep passion and respect for the horror genre. While photography inside the gallery is prohibited, which was a bit disappointing, it’s entirely understandable given the nature of the business the count is trying to run. My lady and I paid $15 each for entry, […]
