Tik Tok….Mr.Timer is on the block

by Kinan Faham on May.28, 2010, under photography

Mr.Timer, a well behaved Basset Hound, decided to drop in for a visit to our office today. This wasn’t the first time this Hush Puppy visits us but it was probably his first posing adventure in front of a camera!

In many of the shots, you will see Mr.Timer relaxing(does it a lot), holding his hands together and slightly turning his face away from the camera as if posing with class and style(I can hear him say: “Get over with it and quickly please!”).
However, Mr. Timer has a high reach when he smells a treat.

For some reason, it looks like all Basset Hounds look bored but they are not...I think!

The Clouds Summit(s)

by Kinan Faham on May.06, 2010, under Nature, Storms, photography

Another week & another attempt at capturing the mundane & then trying to make it look more intriguing. The majority of the pictures in this album took place either as I was heading to work in the early AM or late in the day as I rushed out unleashing the shutter as fleets of clouds had their daily summit(s).

In Mist we were standing

by Kinan Faham on May.15, 2009, under Travel

Today was an interesting day in that we had fog and sun intertwined around the Connecticut river. I grabbed my camera and started shooting around “Between the Bridges” marina:

As seen from my company's stairs!

Around 1:00 PM from the stairwell to my work on the second floor, the sun was shining and the mist stuck in the air, I 95 can be seen on the left

Many people are launching their boats these days

Amtrack’s bridge raised for a vessel, in a minute the whole scene will become gray as the sun withers away!

The mist intensifies, the sun starts to fade away and gray becomes the theme of the day

Old Lyme is now barely visible with the telephoto!

While I was shooting on the other end of the marina, I heard this guy shouting: You are on the wrong side of the dock, come and watch my red tow boats!

Turns out this is TowBoatU.S. Long Island Sound

Like the red, yellow and gray colors!

A guy named Bob said I could climb up his cabin(he has a nice boat) and shoot from there, Thanks Bob!

  • The Silent Camera

    Always fascinated by the odds of the world we live in, I keep my camera at close range all the time just to capture anything my eyes see and like.

    This blog will document journeys to places unknown(to this fella at least) and show you around through his eyes.

    My long term goal is to visit all of the 392 national parks in the United States and hopefully many more interesting places.

    I hope you like how I see our world.

    Feel free to send me your shouts & murmurs either by leaving a comment or through the contact page.

    Ciao!
