ISO 100 | 200mm | f11 | 1/160 sec The sights, sounds, and smells of the west coast are a stark contrast to the eastern side of Washington state.  I can’t recall the last time I was over on this side of the state during the winter season, but I can tell you that it […]

ISO 200 | 110mm | f 8.0 | 1.3 sec Kind of ran out of time this week.  I didn’t get a very good opportunity to capture an inspiring shot.  I wanted to capture the essence of the cold in contrast with the warmth of being indoors.  I was running around in the snow tonight […]

ISO 400 | 40mm | f 11 | 1/125 sec Almost got mugged this last week.  I was out taking photos downtown and turned down an alley to try and get some grunge/texture shots.  I was minding my own business when all of a sudden from behind a dumpster jumped a man dressed in a […]

ISO 400 | 50mm | f 4.0 | 1/15 sec I’m just having too much fun with these “mini” shots.  I’m not sure now if this is a black-and-white project or a miniature-self-portrait project. Anyways, had this fun idea of skating on top of my 70-200mm f2.8 (a bad idea when looking at it from […]

ISO 200 | 50mm | f 8.0 | 1/15 sec This last week I went on a search for new inspiration.  A long and toilsome journey it was, across broad valleys and over insurmountable hills.  I fought my way through dark woods and dense underbrush, crossing rivers and scaling precipices.  Braving the elements and ignoring […]

ISO 200 | 125mm | f 4.0 | 1/160 sec Often in the search for new ideas one comes up dry.  Whether it be a lack of inspiration, a shortage of good subject-matter, or just a restriction in funds, all artists struggle with producing new, awe-inspiring material.  If only the lightbulb would come on sooner […]

ISO 50 | 50mm | f 4.0 | 1/200 sec Couldn’t resist posting one more from the series of images I took for my last Black and White project…

ISO 100 | 50mm | f 4.0 | 1/200 sec Halfway done with my 52 week B&W project, and still going strong! I’ve felt a little overwhelmed this week, lots to be done and not enough time to do everything.  One of the big concerns for me this week has been in the area of […]

ISO 400 | 200mm | f 2.8 | 1/500 sec This post breaks out of the established norm for me, but in an attempt to bring a little levity to this project, I couldn’t resist.  I was surprised when I walked out the door this morning to find this little guy perched high up in […]

ISO 400 | 200mm | f 2.8 | 1/80 sec Stopped on my way home from Oregon to snap some pics of this tree farm I had seen on my way down.  I figured that it would behoove me to take a little time to capture this amazing sight (after all, it’s not everyday that […]
