Photographer Highlite~ Neil Gale

Neil started shooting pictures at 11 years old and won an Honorable Mention in the 1971 Buckingham Fountain Art Fair competition in Chicago (400+ photography participants), using a 1949 model Eastman-Kodak Brownie Hawkeye box camera. Since he was bit by the camera bug, Neil has won International Photography Awards and had numerous photographs published. There is a special thrill to view your photograph on TV. Neil's had many photos used by major and cable networks including CNN; NBC and CBS Networks.

After the bride and groom went fishing, they walked back into their reception. I was trying to do a few techniques and had to bail and get this shot as they were walking up. Its nice intentions and sometimes those moments that are not intended that make the best photo!

Look for a group in facebook for David Becksteads Flair for Flare! If the sun is fighting you,, FIGHT BACK!

You may get an awesome result!

Send me your photos at laymanphotography@windstream.net

Have a great Monday!

Photo of The Day-Friday

This is more street photography. New Orleans 2010
Walking to get shots of the steam boat,, I ran into a street performer who decided to sing to my husband because I kept the camera to my face.
Instead of being in a Georgia State of Mind, he used Alabama..after asking us where we were from..

Good Memory- I said I can get your name and put you on my website.. he said, No but wanted us to by a CD.

This shot was after the "NO"!

Photo of The Day- Thursday-Street Photography

Hello,
Hope everyone is doing well. Today's photo is a street car in New Orleans.

Camera on neck, riding the riverside street car in New Orleans, waiting for my stop at Cafe Du Monde.. I stood up when we stopped for Jackson's Square and took this shot. I love how relaxing this shot makes me feel. It wasnt crowded. We had a nice cool breeze and it was great to get off our feet!

Hello John,
Welcome and thank you for following my blog. I am always looking for friends to participate in my Photo of The Day portion of my blog.

I ask for a small bio, telling us about your passion for photography. Since I use my blog as a teaching tool.. I would like if you could give the settings of the camera and perhaps a story behind the photo.
