The significance of this picture? Other than being of the hotel from “Pretty Woman”, it will most likely be the last image that I took with my trusty Sigma 14mm. In this post I will discuss a little about the lens, why I will no longer be using it and show some of my favorite images taken with it.

Sigma 14mm F2.8…Farewell
January 8, 2013San Francisco – 2010
October 31, 2010
Back in July, the wife and I took a short trip up to San Francisco. We were there for about two days and the weather was overcasted (just how I like it). Lenses used were 35mm f2, 85mm f1.8 and a 14mm F2.8. These are a few of the images taken on that trip.
Level 4 – Adventurer

Another shot from my trip to Linda Vista Hospital a couple months back. This was an “on the spot” idea and the whole setup probably took about 5-10 minutes. Kelly from work was kind enough to step in as the “Adventurer”. I really enjoy doing the themed shots like this and I really need to make it a point to try them more often.
From Darkness to the Light

This shot was taken a while back when I went out to the Linda Vista Hospital Shoot that Brooke Shaden arranged. The shot was actually the only planned shot I had in mind when I went there that day. I saw this morgue in pictures and I came up with this idea. I wanted to do it so it looked more surreal than creepy (although it might still be creepy to some).
