Experimenting with Triptychs

I love the tree triptychs produced by environmental photographer James Balog: Changing Forests: http://www.jamesbalog.com/portfolios/changing-forests/
He is probably best known for his 2007--present work documenting the disappearance of the ice fields. His other environmental work is just as captivating.
Here are my photographs of 2 trees done as triptychs, with the maple tree duplicated to produce a black & white version of the same photograph.

An extra triptych-this one of a clivia montage:

Portrait assignment

I usually don't do portrait work and was not looking  forward to this assignment.  However, since I was selective about who and where I photographed, it ended up being a fun project.  I also learned a lot, and got to play with a new lens.
