Carl Weaver Photography

I was recently given the assignment of photographing these lollipops from the Melville Candy Company. They really are that beautiful and they taste great too. Of course, one of them arrived broken so I had to eat it to put it out of its misery. Go check out the company and see some of the great stuff they make!

Do you need your products photographed? Let me know. I’d be glad to help you out.

And finally, a single calla lily for you. And in case you were wondering, that thing in the flower that looks like a banana candy really is a banana candy. Great creative use of other candies, in my opinion!

I had a great visit to Albuquerque a couple months ago, during which I took some artistic shots in the very scenic Old Town section. I love the extremely shallow depth of field possible with this lens. Everything is clear and crisp, too, a feature well known to those who have used many Pentax lenses.

I spent this past weekend in Harper’s Ferry, WV. Usually I am not particularly interested in photographing monuments and standing in line with the other tourists to photograph what someone decided was the best view of the town. However, I almost always travel with a camera.

You never know what you might find along the trail you know not. For instance, just this morning, my wife and I wandered into Beans in the Belfry, a lovely coffee shop and restaurant in Brunswick, MD that was built in an old church. Check out some of the photos I got of the place and the old stained glass.

We got good coffee, a great meal and just a bit of church this Sunday. So maybe the church part doesn’t count. However, I find it difficult to gaze upon stained glass and not feel something. I guess the church part counts after all.

If you are out that way, be sure to stop in. It’s a great place.
