thanks. the dof on the 50r is pretty shallow, so i focus stack a lot with the camera. i like that it makes me slow down and think about what i'm doing.

i spent the last few weeks traveling around the western us. i wanted to make my first stop on the east coast in new york, but the governor is a pin head and won't let most of the country visit without quarantining for 14 days. unless you're invited to attend the vma awards, are a member of a...

watch the light. you can have the best clouds ever, but if the light is hitting them at the wrong angle you'll end up with flat, lifeless crap. these two shots were taken a day apart (similar skies and conditions on both days) within a few miles of each other. in the first the sun is nearly...

this is something i really struggle with because we have a ton of undergrowth in our woods on the east coast. but i found a small aspen grove out west and grabbed a few different compositions. i was looking for patterns that led the viewer from the trees in front to the back of the woods...

autumn colors of a grove of aspens in the american west. fuji 50r & 32-64mm

fuji 50r & 100-200mm lens

Never knew they were up there. That's about 5 hours from where I live.

i use my business name for a watermark rather than my real name. i work in dispatch, i'm a little paranoid about my personal info on the internet. my coworkers at my dispatch job know the name and logo of my photography business. one of them told me one day that they'd seen one of my photos...

nice, where did you go? looks similar to what I've been shooting in wyoming.

photoshop's smart fill could possibly be used to remove a watermark. otherwise some time, patience and skill with the clone stamp. have you considered putting a more obscure watermark on your images? people could still remove it if they see it, but if they don't you'll have proof that they...

some horses in grand teton national park in wyoming, usa. taken as the sun was setting behind the mountains. a7r4 & 200-600mm @ 600mm.

fuji 32-64mm. the 100-200mm is my second most used landscape lens with the 23mm prime coming in as a very useful last.

i once made an action that used percentages to drop a watermark in place. this way the bottom right corner of the watermark was always dropped 10% in from the bottom right corner no matter what size the image was. it's been awhile but i believe i had to se the rulers to % rather than pixels to...

two grizzlies and a week old elk carcass in yellowstone national park this afternoon. not the best photos ever, but these are the first grizzlies i've seen in the park. the one on top of the elk is 881, the one in the river is 791. sony a7r4 and 200-600mm

they have these in the crowded us national parks too. except they show someone squatting on top of the toilet with a big red X over it. i'll grab a shot this week when i see one.
