I posted one picture a couple months ago from Glass Beach in Fort Bragg, CA. It’s one of the coolest places I’ve been to, and if you haven’t been there, you should definitely check it out sometime. Just don’t be one of those people pointlessly filling up a plastic bag with the prettiest of the … Continue reading
I finally made it to Iceland earlier this year. My friend and I decided to make the trip with very little planning – all we knew at first was that we wanted to see as much of the country as possible and document our travels through pictures and film. We had a full week to … Continue reading
This is just a quick followup to my last post. As promised, I also wanted to share some photos taken overseas in the last few years. Most of these were captured with a Fuji X-T1 or X-Pro2, but I used an Olympus TG-4 for two and Canon 5D Mark III for another. Enjoy! That’s it … Continue reading
The last few years have been exceptionally busy. There’s never a dull moment at work, and I’ve been trying to get away as much as possible when I have some time off. But I have been stingy and I haven’t been sharing much. With the exception of friends and family who received one of my … Continue reading
Yesterday I spent my first 4th of July in Miami, so naturally I had to go to the beach to check out the fireworks. I could have gone somewhere for a more sweeping view of the various displays up and down the coasts of South Florida, but instead I opted to get a few blocks away from the main … Continue reading
A while back I posted pictures from my first trip to Libya. It was just under two years ago, and at the time the country was preparing for its first free elections in over 40 years. Unfortunately, many of the problems plaguing the country back then are still prevalent today. In fact, many of them … Continue reading
As I was wrapping up my recent trip to Jamaica (pictures soon), I told my friends that I was actually looking forward to going home. Never before have I been in the Caribbean and actually wanted to go home… but then again, this was my first (personal) trip to the region, since I moved to … Continue reading
It’s been a while since I posted any pictures taken with my Canon 5D Mark III. Indeed, it’s been a while since I’ve used it at all. That’s not good (although it does say a lot about how much I like my Fuji kit). I moved to Florida in July, but so far I only … Continue reading
I finally decided to buy my first macro lens about six months ago. I chose the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM, a lens I’m growing increasingly fond of after each use. It’s also a lens with a rather steep learning curve, at least for me. Perhaps that’s only true because I had zero macro experience before buying this piece … Continue reading
I had a pleasant surprise when I was online last night. I discovered that one of my photos was ‘recently’ featured by the Smithsonian Magazine, winning a “Photo of the Day” recognition back in October. Granted, it’s a small victory, but one that put a big belated smile on my face! For me, this is without precedent. … Continue reading
The other day I went out with my 5D to shoot some flowers. I was on the hunt for bees… but I had no luck with that. I did walk away with some keepers though, two of which form the foundation of this post. I really love my macro lens and I’ll be writing a long overdue … Continue reading
