You Are Lost

Survey

My "official photography website," Corey Templeton Photography, has been open for almost a year now. It has been a great first year and I look forward to a few more. If you have visited the site, I'd be happy to hear your feedback about how the photographs are organized and also on the pricing of the products. You are invited to complete this quick survey to offer your thoughts. Upon completion, you will receive a coupon code for 30% your next order on the site (this isn't a sales pitch, no pressure to buy anything). You can also contact me any time with suggestions or comments about how to improve the site. Thanks!

Night Bike

A bicycle and its shadow on Free Street. This was taken last night with my new lens. It's funny how 10 days ago we had no snow, then we got over a foot of snow in a day, and now there is no snow again. 

Wide Angle Congress Square

I very recently got a new lens, my first real wide-angle (a Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 if you're interested in that kind of stuff). I took it out for a spin tonight and am really impressed with it so far. I guarantee you will be seeing a lot of shots with this lens going forward. It certainly opens up a lot of new creative photo opportunities. 

Outside Looking In

Looking in to Fore Street, one of Portland's finer restaurants.

One of Many

One of the beautiful old buildings along Commercial Street in the Old Port.

Stick in the Mud

A literal stick in the mud, with the Portland skyline in the background. This "stick" is actually part of an old pier of some sort, I presume, and is about 10 feet tall.

Alternate view. 

I Spy Portland

These photos are from Thomas Knight Park in South Portland, at the foot of the Casco Bay Bridge.

Grand Trunk Office

As you can tell from the lack of snow in these photos, they were taken prior to Thursday's snow storm. I still have hundreds of photos taken over the last month that I haven't posted yet, which will be easy spot due to the missing snow. Anyhow, here are some photos of the Grand Trunk Railroad office building at the end of India Street. I posted a photo of the old signage under the fire escape here last weekend. You might be interested in this before and after post of the area from a few years ago also. The lot surrounding the building, which will be developed eventually, has been fenced in for several years now and the gate happened to be opened as I was bicycling by so I had to wander in for some shots. 

After the Snow
