We’re already well into January of 2010. Can you believe it?
A good deal has been happening with the gallery, a few photo shoots, and other random news. So, let’s get to the latest updates.
The print room expansion at the gallery is complete. Amazingly enough, we didn’t loose as much hanging space as we thought [...]
The last foray into Coyote Buttes still hasn’t been closed out here. Sorry about that, so many distractions lately. Today we’re going to follow up on some interesting events that occurred on my last visits.
Changing colors, changing scenes
One of the most interesting phenomena I’ve observed in 4 trips to the Vermillion Cliffs National Monument has [...]
When I first moved to Arizona I read the brochures. You know, the cool ones with the 1950’s logos telling you how great it is here. “Wish you were here…..” , “Having a great time…….”, “Come to sunny warm Arizona……” Yup, I bought it all hook line and sinker.
In the end I landed in Prescott, [...]
Back from the UT / AZ border once again. And the last time for this year I think.
Months ago I decided to get a few more permits for Coyote Buttes South. After the initial visit I had realized that more time was needed to cover the area. Paw Hole and Cottonwood deserve more time. Trying [...]
The temperatures are cooling off all over the place. In some parts of the country snow has already shown up. Winter is just about here.
For smart photographers everywhere, shooting in warmer places sounds like the perfect plan. Florida, Texas, New Mexico, and even Arizona. Phoenix is still warmer, so is Tucson. How about Organ Pipe [...]
Photographing Arizona Podcast Episode 15: Poverty Flat to White Pocket Arizona: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (263)Recently I took a second trip into White Pocket. Just an overnight trip, but it offered more time to really get to see the area. The first trip in was way too rushed. This time around we really got to take our time.
My old friend from college years, Tom, was in the area as he’s [...]
The short answer…..not so much really.
Several weeks ago something very strange happened after my first venture into Coyote Buttes. The ABS system started randomly going off. Seriously, as random as you could imagine.
Driving south on Route 89 I got to the traffic circle near the Watson Lake park. As I applied the brakes the ABS [...]
Ah, the lessons learned on this recent trip to White Pocket. In my exhausted state on Sunday I wrote out an awfully long list of stuff, and I’m willing to bet some readers thought I’d let the list pass into memory. Yeah, right. There were some interesting lessons learned on this trip, so let’s get [...]
A little over a week ago a phone call came in. Contract in California. Weekends free, what to do, what to do.
It was my friend of nearly 20 years, Tom. Months ago the wireless carrier downsizing pinched his job, and finding work with a sea of engineers, property managers, etc, all hunting too isn’t the [...]
I didn’t spend too much time sorting photos yesterday. And I spent no real time editing anything. As you can see in the prior post though, some of the scenes were just amazing and I don’t think a lot of heavy handed work will be necessary.
One photo did get an initial pass in HDR. I [...]
