ARCH STREET PHILADELPHIA
LAST NIGHT
This shot was of course not taken “Last Night” as the title would suggest. In fact, it was taken in the summer of 2019, on my cell phone and edited with an app on my phone called Snapseed.
It’s funny how you can forget about photographs not long after you take them, even if they are pretty good. Because I didn’t shoot this image with a fancy camera and import it into my Lightroom catalog for proper editing and backup, I completely forgot about it.

Wildwood is usually a pretty busy place in the summer. But in the off-season, it’s quite with little going on. The traffic lights all flash yellow and most of the stores are still closed for the winter. There were only a few places open on the boardwalk and most of the people on the beach were only there to walk their dogs.

One of my favorite times to be in the woods is after a storm. The dampness and the fog create a surreal atmosphere that surrounds you in a way that is both familiar and peaceful, yet somehow unsettling.

Selling Prints on Fine Art America
Over the years, I’ve belonged to many different websites related to photography. Most of the websites were portfolio based sites designed to showcase your work. Sites like Photoblink, 500px, Flickr, Tumblr, etc. You get the idea. During this time I’ve also had my own portfolio website (no not this one) ……this one: dgoakill.com It is a Zenfolio site I created back in 2008. I still have it and it’s undergone many transitions over the years, mainly because it’s so cheap compared to a lot of the other options on the internet. One of the big advantages of the site is that it has print on demand options and a very good payment system. Visually, that’s another story for another post.
