Shooting a concert? What?

So, the wife and I are hitting a concert this weekend. We’re looking forward to it for many reasons. The one that is causing me to blog about it is that I’ll be shooting it. Duh!
Thinking about it, I’ve never really tried to photograph a concert. Harsh lighting. Long distances. Moving targets. What’s a photog [...]

Photo flashback #1

Only recently have I began to become proud of my post-processing skills. So, I took that challenge, and below is what I came up with. Check out Phill’s original post, and you can [...]

Attention Photographers!

Last year, I almost had the chance to attend a sweet Photo Symposium, in Moab, Utah. I swore then that I’d try hard to attend this year. Well, I can’t get the days off work. However, I didn’t want to pass up on a great location like that. Now, of course there are great locations [...]
