The stained glass in the Chapel are gorgeous. In the large windows, top register depicts the Old Testament and then the bottom shows their fulfillment in the New Testament. The details are from smaller, eye-level windows. I will try and provide some additional commentary or identification at a later date. […]

King’s College Chapel – Stained Glass

A relatively sunny December afternoon and few visitors made for a bright and open chapel. You may use these images freely, but must attribute: ©Christian MM Brady, http://photoblog/targuman.org

King’s College Chapel – Cambridge

The neighborhood I live in has a small pond, off the historic Town Branch Creek, which runs behind my house. It is a typical suburban track-home neighborhood, with houses barely 8 feet apart, but we are right on the edge nature and it has always surprised me how much flora […]

Water Fowl (and a Blue Jay)

This week began our “self-isolation” in Lexington, Kentucky. More or less. The University is closing up, restaurants and bars have shut down, but we can still get take-out, gas, and go to the grocery stores. Spring is also coming in with force and it is beautiful. The birds are raucous […]

Cardinals in the Morning

I was invited to throw out the first pitch at the UK v. Vanderbilt game. The latter is ranked #2 and it was a tough loss for the Wildcats. (My pitch was on target, but short.) I had my camera with the 200-500 lens, but not much opportunity to use […]

Kentucky Baseball

I was on Tybee Island, GA this past weekend and captured a few sunrise photos. I did not have a tripod so this was all handheld, but the results are not bad.

I do not get the change to go to many concerts, but Lexington offers a lot of opportunities in small venues. In this case, the musicians are people I have followed since the mid-80s so it was a great pleasure to hear them and be able to shoot the concert. […]

The Choir featuring Michael Roe: The Time Has Come Tour

Attending the annual Fall Meet at Keeneland in Lexington KY. It is part of the Breeder’s Cup and a very fun day. I was unable to bring in a monopod and the Nikon AF-S FX Nikkor 200-500 is just a wee bit heavy when using by hand. Nikon D810.

When in Rome…we visited perhaps the most interesting monument to me, a scholar of ancient Judaism. The Arch of Titus was built in 82 CE by Domitian after the death of his older brother, Titus. It commemorates Titus’ victories, particularly the siege and conquest of Jerusalem in 70 CE, depicted […]

Arch of Titus

Florence, “Firenze” in Italian (I only point that out because I had no idea), is a beautiful, busy, and crowded city. Taking good pictures of the buildings would require a tilt-shift lens, but I was fascinated by the people taking selfies. I am not going to criticize them, I don’t […]

Florence – Taking pictures of people taking pictures.

This gentleman sits in his little shop writing and illuminating texts. Many of which are in Hebrew, from the Bible and other texts. (I saw one quote from Pirkei Avot.) This day, he was working on a text and image for a Bar Mitzvah. The artist’s name is Even Caredio […]

Calligrapher – Siena, Italy

Near my house there is a overflow pond full of reeds. A few weeks ago hundreds of small birds were there (starlings, I suspect). I did not get out in time to try and photograph them, as they wheeled in the sky then settled in the reeds to chitter and […]
