There are 3 key variables to think about in photography. ISO which controls how sensitive you film/camera is to light. Shutter speed, which controls how long light is let into the camera.

I am not really a holiday person. I don’t like special days that make everything more crowded and more complicated than they would be on an average day. I am very bah humbug, not just for Christmas but for just about all holidays. My mindset is that I just try to celebrate life everyday. I don’t need a special holiday to make me feel more appreciative of life or all the things… Read More
We all have times when our fires burn hotter than others. Sometimes it is just the embers keeping us warm at night. Other times we are like a raging bonfire.

When photographing public parks I often get hung up with excluding anything man made from the photos. I really try to focus on the natural part of the scene. It really bothers me if I look back at a photo and realize there… Read More
Sometimes I don’t share things or do things because I don’t think they will be good enough. I think all of us can relate to a thought like that.

Or Maybe you only write short poems. For me there are certain types of photography I… Read More
Hiking. I enjoy hiking. I often seek out trails to hike and explore them with my camera. This can vary from local river trails right in town, to local nature centers, nearby state parks and trails that traverse the entire state but passes nearby where i live.
There are certain subjects that I really like to photograph. I will seek them out and try to capture a variety of images of them. This is especially true when I am pursuing photography in the area where I live. Sometimes when we travel we can get excited about photographing new things. And new things are great and should be celebrated. But don’t forget about the things you love already.
