I have to say that I am quite fortunate sometimes.
Today, as I was driving through Peartle Springs I envisioned a photo opportunity immediately. The image I saw turned out to be of a lady named Valerie. She is 82 years old and has been a fisher-woman since she was twelve. Originally from Kansas City, she [...]

Okay, so here are some more HDR images taken with the 5D. I am super excited because I feel that my growing knowledge and experience is leading to some awesome images. It doesn’t hurt to have some cool subject matter as well. This series was done for my Creative Photography class at UCM.
To really appreciate these, [...]

I took some images on Sunday that are somewhat unique but seem to contain artistic value. I hope you find pleasure in viewing them. Here is what I did.
I was in the passenger seat of a vehicle with my Canon 5D and was thinking about how I could make an overcast day exciting. I have done [...]

Using a Canon 5D and a pinhole body cap will be my newest addition to a variety of techniques I already have used with the camera. A pinhole camera body cap is exactly what it sounds like: a body cap with a tiny hole in the center. Using the cap instead of the lens will produce less than sharp [...]

Going out a second time to Knob Knoster turned out to be productive once again. I went out yesterday morning and snagged this HDR image of the sunrise. I love taking photos of the sun shining through the tree tops. Something about the emotions it can evoke always has interested me. I was going to go out [...]

This morning I traveled the short distance to Knob Knoster State Park. I was fortunate enough to have beautiful clouds and lighting. Instead of writing in past tense about my expedition this morning, I will share excerpts from my journal. I hope you like it.
“…Beautiful. I think to take a picture, even though it [...]

Finding a calm palce to stand in the water, I set my tripod and began capturing the convergence of lines and colors.
As the sun sets the colors begin to transform, blend, and create a serene scene.

A Snaphot

I consider a snapshot something that is instantaneous and candid. A simple turn of the camera, snap of the shutter, and an exposed piece of film(sensor). Producing a snaphot while bracketing on a tripod may seem like something more complex to the outsider. Even with my camera set up for methodical image capture, I captured [...]
A Good Moment

Walking back from taking the previous uploaded images, I came about this leaf. Call it a serendipitous moment. This leaf was precariously hanging by the reminents of a spider web. It was intriguing. I think to myself: its fall, this leaf just fell, prolonging its journey to the earth, and the reminents of a spider [...]
Speeding On

Life goes whizzing by,
I am afraid I can’t comply.
The road is seen,
but is it known?
I will find the end,
It is only a matter of when.
