It’s that time of the year again! Fall and Winter are my favorite times of the year to do photography and during the holiday season I like to share my photos with people. One of the best ways to do that is by using my photos on the cover of my holiday cards. O.k., some […]

I thought I would end this day with a picture I took on Saturday evening. I was in Ventura Harbor and saw this sunset. It made me realize how lucky I am that I live near the ocean and have the opportunity to take photos of such a beautiful place. There was a couple along […]

This weekend I took my first shot at creating a time-lapse video. For those of you who don’t know what that is, it’s when you take multiple images (usually at a specific time frame, like every 4 seconds) and combine them to create a short video. Usually you need extra equipment attached to the DSLR […]

If you live in or can get to the Los Angeles area in the next six months, there is one photography exhibit you should not miss; it’s called The Power of Photography: National Geographic 125 Years. The exhibit is currently open at the Annenberg Space for Photography and will close on April 27, 2014. Today […]

I got back from Yosemite on Saturday night. The trip was AMAZING! I had the opportunity to do a lot of photography and so far am happy with the results. I’ll be posting the photos to my website in the next week. I took over 2000 images, so it’s going to take a while to […]

I like watching online camera reviews and one I recently saw was a You Tube video from Digitalrev.com. While watching the video, I noticed that the guy was wearing a t-shirt with a funny word printed across it. I’d never heard of the word before and I guess maybe I missed the boat on this […]

I’m about to make another trip to Yosemite in the next couple of weeks. It was hard to tell if I was going to have to cancel my trip since the government shutdown was still looming until Wednesday last week. I would’ve been able to get into the park because I was going to stay […]

A couple of years ago I was processing some photos and noticed something really strange. A few different images all had the same kind of mark on them in exactly the same spot. I immediately thought that the problem was the lens (I used the same lens for all three photos), but there were no […]

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past week, you will know that the United States Government has shut down for the last week and it looks like it will remain that way for a while. I’m not going to point a finger and blame any specific political party, but I will say […]

Ansel Adams is one of the most admired and respected photographers of all time. His technique with film in the field and in the darkroom helped advance photography in many ways. However, Mr. Adams never had the chance to explore the digital age since he died back in 1984. I frequently wonder how he would […]
