San Diego Skyline

Thursday, March 28th, 2013

I ventured over to Coronado Island the other night while here in San Diego for my family’s Spring Break. I didn’t know where to shoot from, but in my scouting I came across this neat little park that seemed to be in line with the path of the moon’s rise and the skyline. (Click to [...]

I Learned a New and Improved HDR Processing Technique

Saturday, February 9th, 2013

I stumbled across a new technique recently for processing my high dynamic range (HDR) photographs. This new technique is very well detailed in Kah Wai Lin, in a tutorial he wrote for HDROne (site/magazine). And even though it’s more of a processing over processing of HDR images and the RAW HDR file itself, it’s leading [...]

More From Monument Valley Last Year

Thursday, January 31st, 2013

I was looking back over my photo library tonight and came across some unfinished imagery from a trip to Arizona’s Monument Valley last February with Steve Parker. All three images are 3-shot HDR images processed through either Photomatix Pro or HDR Efex Pro and/or Silver Efex Pro 2. And all three are from a guided [...]

Cabin on the Hill

Saturday, October 27th, 2012

Going back through my images I dug up this image from my 2006 Fall Colors trip (with Steve Parker) down into the San Juan Mountains of Colorado. This image happens to have been taken between Silverton and Ouray, I believe. What reminded me about this image was, I was perusing Google+ today and saw someone [...]

Waxing Moon Setting over First Flatiron

Saturday, October 20th, 2012

I was up in Boulder checking out the fall colors along Mapleton Avenue and finding the gardners had just mowed there really drove me away. So I headed up to Chautauqua Park to see if I could catch the setting waxing crescent moon setting over the flatirons before heading to my monthly Colorado Nature Camera [...]

Rock Star

Monday, August 20th, 2012

This past weekend, we went to a family picnic for my kids’ new school year held at Sunflower Farms near Longmont. While chasing the kids around the different attractions there, I stumbled upon this little guy on stage! Anyone know what type of chicken this is? Please leave me a comment below.

Grand Lake

Tuesday, July 31st, 2012

Here’s a different view of downtown Grand Lake, from our recent family trip to the area. Downtown Grand Lake is old and rustic, with wooden boardwalks, store fronts and planter boxes. Most of the downtown area is original buildings: jail, opera house, saloons, general grocers, etc. with a taste of modern thrown in. Nighttime comes [...]

Meet Malena

Sunday, July 1st, 2012

Our friends, Megan and Eric, recently gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. Only problem for me as a photographer, they lived on the East Coast! So it wasn’t until last weekend that we could meet the new addition, and little Malena is already 3 months old now. What a cutie! Here’s one image from [...]
