This image is from a family portrait session i shot in Maryland 5 years ago before I made the switch from film to digital. We are in the process of scanning all our film archives in the studio to our workstation so we can share more of our older film work with our fans.

B. Payden Photography 365 - Day 45 - 03/27/10 Salamander


This image was recorded at Sandy Bottom Nature Park in Hampton, Va. in the spring of 2008. I was three stories up on an observation platform, overlooking a wetlands preserve, shooting Blue Herons and Great White Egrets when I spotted this Salamander on the railing. I quickly swung my 300mm lens around on the tripod and captured this image a second before the Salamander disappeared over the side of the railing.

B. Payden Photography 365 - Day 44 - 03/26/10 Battleship USS Wisconsin


This image is a waterline view of the Battleship USS Wisconsin down the port side of the ship at it's Nauticus berth. The Battleship is now a museum ship and permanently berthed at the the Nauticus Maritime Museum in Norfolk, Virginia. I particularly like this view of the USS Wisconsin due to the dramatic diffused winter lighting giving the Battleship a somber flat gray appearance.

B. Payden Photography 365 - Day 43 - 03/25/10 US Capitol Tulips


This image was recorded April of 2000 on the grounds of The US Capitol Building. DC in the spring is a particularly beautiful time in the city. I love this image of a bed of Tulips with The Capitol Dome in the background.

I recorded this image of a Tulip on the grounds of The US Capitol Building in April 2000. I love Washington DC in the springtime and as my shooting schedule allows I try to spend some time each spring in the city with my camera.
