Left Eye Images

I’m L.E. Baskow. Freelance photojournalist and staff photographer based in the US on the east coast…always looking for the next road to travel. This site is a gateway to my photo galleries, projects and blog. Looking for a particular type of image? Start with a search in the Entire Collection. Otherwise, simply browse the Portfolio Highlights. Images can be purchased for digital use or print. Need a seasoned photographer with a flair for telling a story? I’m available for shoots too. Whether your focus is news, sports, portraiture, wedding, or travel, I truly connect with people while putting them at ease in front of the camera. Also check out Current Projects. Learn more about my passion combining cycling and photography that started with my 2011 cross-country trip and photo venture called "Pedaling on the Road of Life." The world looks a little different from behind the lens on a bicycle seat. I hope you’ll agree! Thanks for looking, L.E.

From a seat among the crowd to the seat of a bicycle, I've been honored to be part of amazing news events, festivals, concerts, and tours. With these images I hope to make you wish you'd been there too. Come along for the ride!

Many years as a photojournalist have sharpened my spidy senses and taught me how to be ready when the action happens. These shots give you a freeze frame of that captured split second.

Now and again I bring out my artistic, funky and slightly twisted side. Different from my other shots, these images are more conceptual, unusual, or just plain weird. Call 'em what you like, but do enjoy a peek into my mind's eye.

Too many places…too little time. But I'm trying real hard to capture as many as possible. These are highlights of the ordinary and not-so-ordinary locations, landscapes and cityscapes that I've seen so far. You might just see a special shot that instantly takes you there.
