I’m finding that I actually have more time to post when I’m on the road these days. Now that I’m back from Kentucky, I’m divided between work, painting the new house and office, packing, and preparing the old house for sale. It will all be worth it in the end, though. I look forward to […]

Kentucky elk herd
09Aug08Homage
25Apr08Watched “The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford” last night and was awestruck by some of the film’s imagery. It’s not at all what you would consider a typical western and it’s not something to watch if you’re interested in historical accuracy (Alberta, Canada, and the Canadian Rockies serve as the backdrop […]

02Apr08Adobe Labs has posted a beta version of Lightroom 2.0 for download. Some good resources are available on NAPP’s Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2.0 Learning Center.
More related links are available on John Nack’s blog. One that I find particularly interesting as a travel photographer is this link to Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Adventure 2008, Destination: Tasmania. “A […]

Peyto Lake Panorama
05Mar08I returned from Canada late Saturday night and jumped right back into work on Sunday. Today I finally had enough of a breather to start the post-processing from this trip. The shot above is a pano created with the Photo Merge command in Photoshop from eight separate shots I took at Peyto Lake. I shot […]
Nikkor 24mm tilt-shift lens
29Jan08Nikon has announced new products including a D60 DSLR as a follow-up to the popular D40X. Interesting to a smaller segment of the population is the addition of a 24mm Perspective Control lens. Canon has had one of these for some time while Nikon only offered an 85mm PC lens.
Perspective control, or tilt-shift, lenses have […]
Coastline
18Jan08Today I’m posting a photo that’s been a favorite of mine for quite a while. For me, “favorite” shots are not the shots that I think are my “best” but sometimes they are just photos that put me back in a place I love. This is one of those. I took it a few years […]
