New Photoset: Winter Classic 2009

Weather conditions for some hockey history today here in Chicago couldn't have been more perfect. And as a bonus, the slightly overcast afternoon in the Windy City offered some fairly nice lighting conditions for shooting a very memorable outdoor hockey game.


While I witnessed history from the comfort of my living room, and in 42" flat screen and full HD glory, my brother and his buddy were at the game with about 40,000 others. He was kind enough to bring along my Canon SD890 for the afternoon and took some really great shots that I wanted to share. Even though the main focus of this site is aimed at showcasing my work as a photographer, I felt the quality of these photos was a strong testament to how versatile the Canon SD890 really is...

Flickr Idea: Making an Online Photo Calendar

I said it before, I love being a photographer and a web developer. Here's another reason why.

Making an Online Photo Calendar

About This Site

photonelly was created by myself, Kris Nelson, to collate and feature much of my photography work as a hobbyist over the past few years.

Some of my work is already featured in a few of the different websites I have put together, yet other photo sessions don't fit exactly into one of those sites. I also have photos on sites like Flickr and SmugMug that will also be showcased here.

Photography has only become a bigger hobby of mine in just the past few years. But in that short period of time, I have taken so many different pictures of so many different places, it is going to be the goal of this site to share as many of those experiences and as much of the stories and details behind these photos as possible.
