Build a Bridge and Get Over It.
I was out with my friend John yesterday, we had decided to get outside and explore just a little. We had decided to hit Purdon and do a little photography, and drone flying. While we were out there, we were marveling over the the ingenuity of humans, and the lengths they would go to for…

Cemented in History
Imagine if you will, a world where a cement plant goes out of business and after all is said and done, after the world has moved on, the only thing left behind is… cement? I would say that the product of a company would typically be the first asset to be liquidated, but then again…

The Historic ‘D’ Ranch
Happy Moday everyone! Although it’s Monday and the beginning of the work week again, I am fresh off a weekend adventure and feeling good. I spent the day yesterday traveling about the Point Reyes National Seashore, which, if you’re unfamiliar with, is a great way to spend a sunday. There is so much to see…

Does a Bear Sh*t in the Woods?
Recently I had the opportunity to find out. But let’s back up a second. I wasn’t out there looking for the answer to an age old question. I was out there to snag a good photo of the eagle. It had been frequenting the South Yuba, just upriver from the covered bridge at Bridgeport. This…

Another case of right place wrong lens.
I set out on a wildflower adventure, as shown in my previous post about the Buttermilk Bend trail. So naturally, I grab the 70-180 macro lens, ditching the 150-600 beast in the truck. Who wants to hike with that monster, and anyways… wildflowers, remember? I get up the trial a ways, too far to turn…

Over, Around, & Through
This past weekend, we did some weekend warrior shit. Breaking away from our cushy 9-5 weekday routine, we drove down to the Stinson Beach area to hike a trail that claims 6.5 miles, but somehow always ends up closer to 7.5 or 8. Last time, I was unaware. My wife said 6.5 and I believed…

Thoughts on Drone Photography.
I had a friend ask me recently if I thought photographers got mad about drone photography. Do they look at it as cheating? I know there’s definely a stigma regaring cell phones, and I get that. But I think drones are different. Not just because I use one, but because they are used in a…

Getting to know your community
Maybe you’re new to the area. Or you’ve been here a while and are still having trouble making a connection. Or you’re just passing through but have a deep interest in this quaint community you’ve stumbled upon. Some communities are tight lipped, hesitant to open up to strangers, or even people who have been around…

Horsing Around…
I take my photography seriously. But does that mean that every single thing I do in this profession needs to be serious? Neigh. It does not. So I bought this ridiculous horse mask a while back. Why you might ask? I don’t have a clue. It was an impulse buy. But once it showed up,…
