Very nice. You're correct, your pictures do look good. Where were these taken?

bengraves · 02-23-2007

All of these were taken in or arond Annapolis, Md where I was stationed for the Navy. I've recently left there, getting married, and late April we are moving to Japan for my continued journey in the Navy. I'm sure I'll have a ton more photos to share once I get over there!

Those photos are fantastic!

And congrats on the wedding!

It's hard to believe you only started taking photos last April, those look really great! Finding shots like this seems like 1 in a million to me! Great stuff Ben - hope to see some more real soon!

Hey all, first off I'd like to say hello as this is my first post, and secondly I love photography.

bengraves · 02-24-2007

Thanks for the encouragment, I really appreciate the feedback! haha I didn't have much else to do after the workday on my small navy base so photography was a large part of my free time for quite a few months! (now my fiancee is, but she likes photography to so it works out well!) I hope to post more on here later!

Ah, the noble mantis.

Great photos, by the way.

Just wondering: how did you manage to get the one of the seagulls together? Was it pure luck that you caught them or did you wait around for a long time?

Well I work down at a pier with a lot of (navy) boats, and one of the guys is always feeding them. So it wasn't to hard to get a group of them...just threw some bread and hoped for the best.
