  • Teaching Photography Live

    Classroom Setups Evolve to Leverage Technology My recent experience teaching digital photography at PowerPoint Live yielded a wealth of classroom experience in a new setup with which I’ve been toying. Other than practice in my office environment, it was the first opportunity I’ve had to test...

  • Use Your Image Filter to Pack Gear

    One of the greatest inventions ever is the ability to attach information to your digital pictures. Even better is to be able to sort it and use it in a meaningful fashion. I was presenting at the Crosstown Camera Club last night on how to travel as a photographer to a remote destination, particularly...

  • Eggs in a basket

    The proverb "Don't put all of your eggs in one basket" is applicable to many things as most proverbs are. If you have read my post Data Backup Goes Awry , then you will know on a recent trip to Costa Rica , I lost a basket. I broke some other stuff and lost still more but this is the story...

While the anticipation of exotic venues, stunning vistas and poignant artistic expressions is foremost in my mind, I know I will never get there without the sweat. Debbie...

  • Long Exposure Panning Tips

    Shots like this long-exposure pan are becoming popular. This picture was taken at Badlands National Park in May of 2007 during my Artist In Residence tenure. I was trying to illustrate the speed of the fastest land animal in North America,the Pronghorn. I decide to try a handheld pan of 1/2 seconds using...

  • Sodium Vapor Lights Solution?

    Saturday, I had the opportunity to shoot a boy's high school swim team under the unfortunate lighting circumstance of sodium vapor lights. If you've ever shot pictures you will know that this type of lighting produces a greenish hue and lack luster colors. It defies most efforts to adjust the...
