Billy Newman | Dave Chapelle in Portland summer 2009

all of these people showed up at pioneer square after midnight on the rumor that Dave Chapelle would be performing some impromptu stand up at 1:00am Dave Chappelle was there. He showed up but the crowds were to large for him to perform to. Couldn’t hear a thing.

Billy Newman | The Oregon Coast

I have been working with Lightroom for iPad over the past few days. Here is an image from the Oregon Coast. I like the adjustments I have been able to add to my photos, but the app still leaves a bit to be desired.

Billy Newman | The Crow

Pulled up this photo from early 2010. The crow was perched on the tree branch outside of my window. I waited with my telephoto lens sticking out of my bedroom window until it made a move. At the time it was a photo exercise in capturing the decisive moment – now, seeing it years later, it seems more moody.

Billy Newman | The October Color

The October color of central Utah I passed this photo by, never really paid much attention to it in my Lightroom library. That is where so many of my photos seem to end up… and for what?   This project , or the reason that I am posting so many of my photos to my blog and social media is because I want my photos to get off my hard drives and out somewhere.

Billy Newman | Arches National Park

Arches is such a strange and interesting place.  The landscape is so desolate and sureal. Once pristine, now crowded with lines of visitors crawling across the fins of sandstone like ants trafficking a nest.
