Scott's Shots

  • Lens Lens

    I frequently am involved with the video of our church services and other events related to the church.  During the summer, we were asked to help out shooting stills and video of a baptism in the James River. One of our video cameras was on a tripod and I shot this [...]

  • Float

    I love randomness in some photos. This is obviously a decoration but the blues and the yellows struck me a bit. It was hanging on a tree near a home on the James River in Suffolk, Virginia. [...]

  • Elizabeth River Suffolk

    I love the James River. This is of a dock in Suffolk Virginia near Respass Beach Road. The day was really hot and hazy and I’m surprised ANY blue showed up in the sky at all. But wonderfully, as soon as you stood near the river in the shade of [...]

  • Georgia Barn

    This is an old barn located outside Hiawassee Georgia near Lake Chatuge. I have a “thing” for old barns. First, if you like that kind of stuff, you can often get the wood, aged, dried and sun baked for pennies. Sometimes, the owners will pay you to cart it off if [...]

  • Lizzy at sunset

    There is a little inlet off the Elizabeth River in Portsmouth. Its on Caroline Avenue just a block east of County Street. There used to be a small grocery here called Brown’s. Long gone now. It made for a pretty sunset shot, even if a little “cool” on the exposure. 36.8343 [...]

    Yeah I know. It’s my favorite marina again. This one was shot early in the morning. You can see the orange glow of the new day’s sun shining on some of the boats. And the water is smooth as glass. [...]

  • Gray, rainy yucky day…

    Well, this photo has no artistic value to me whatsoever. It’s a color photo but you have to look real hard to see any color at all. Shot from Portsmouth looking across my favorite marina toward Norfolk’s Waterside Market Place. [...]

    This is the entrance to the Court House Galleries in Old Town Portsmouth. I find this shot very ironic, you can clearly see a sign that says entrance, but the gate is shutting everyone out. [...]

    Taken in Old Town Portsmouth An interesting view of some fence leaning against a wall.  At first glance a dirty rusty fence isn’t very attractive, but if you take the time to really look it can become an interesting piece of art. [...]

    This shot was taken in December of 2007 in Hughson, California. My mother in law lives in the middle of a walnut orchard. All the leaves were off the tree (again) and it was just cloudy enough to be spooky. [...]

  • Eerie Sky

    I was out on my deck about 20 minutes ago and looked over the roof of my house and saw this. The tree, still without leaves and the orange of the setting sun reflecting off the eastern sky with the moon peeking through. Just looked kinda freakish. If a little blurry, [...]

  • Witch Ball - Rather Abstract

    My wife was given a “witch ball” for Christmas by our neighbors. It’s a large glass orb about 6 inches in diameter, with many different colors of stained glass. Wikipedia defines it as: A witch ball is a hollow sphere of plain or stained glass hung in cottage windows in 18th [...]

  • Across the Nansemond River

    This photograph is also from Sleepy Hole Park in Suffolk Virginia. From a very eroded bank I shot through the trees to an old farm house and silo. I believe this structure is actually on the Sleepy Hole Golf Course but I’m not 100% sure. [...]

    I am itching to shoot pictures. New camera and Spring isn’t quite here yet. Grrrrrrrr!!! I made a quick dash out to Sleepy Hole Park in Suffolk about noon today. Quick little 15 minute drive. As I was walking along a trail, I saw this very dead tree against the sun. It [...]

    A very good friend of mine asked me to come to her wedding and shoot some photographs. Before I continue, I DON’T DO WEDDINGS!!! But she asked and I told her I would as long as she promised not to hate me no matter how horrible they came out. She promised. [...]

  • Driftwood

    Located in the same location as the previous photo, Tidewater Community College in Portsmouth, this is a shot of some wood that was submerged in the Elizabeth River near some pilings. The pilings appear to extend all the way across the river to the city of Newport News. As an additional note, [...]

    This is a rusty pier piling located at the Tidewater Community College campus in Portsmouth Virginia. Made of steel or iron and sunk into the bank of the Elizabeth River, the wave and tidal action caused it to rust in layers. Definitely not much color in this photograph. [...]

  • NOT a sign of Spring

    At the same time I shot the buds on the Pear tree, I noticed these Azaleas covered with ice. Melting snow was dripping on them from the roof. And at 25F degrees outside it didn’t take long in the shade for them to get coated. [...]

  • Waterside Sunrise

    This photograph was taken in mid-March looking east from Portsmouth to Norfolk. The blues and oranges you see here are pretty close to what I saw with my eyes that morning. No filters or retouching have been done to this photograph. The one aggravating part about it is the tree branches in [...]

    This beautiful little girl is another exception to the “people” rule. My wife actually took this photograph and I honestly had not looked at it before. At least not closely. The original photograph had a lot of background distractions but with a little Photoshop cropping and re-touching I was able [...]
