More Wonderhussy
Thursday, August 13th, 2020
Some more photos of Wonderhussy out in the red rock desert near Las Vegas. One reason I’m showing the photo above, besides really liking it, is that it’s a great demonstration of the tonal range possible with the sensor in my Panasonic GX8 cameras. I like to shoot in overcast conditions, but that wasn’t going […]
Panasonic GX8
Thursday, October 6th, 2016
I have a new camera. A Panasonic GX8. I’d had my eye on this camera for a while, but hadn’t made up my mind. Then there was a sale going on that was just too good to pass up. I got it from Adorama with a “free” 12-60mm lens that seems just perfect and a […]
A Softer Liv
Friday, January 29th, 2016
On that last shoot with the amazingly wonderful Liv Sage I pulled out my old single-element soft focus lens and played around with it for a while. It makes nice soft photos in a way that really can’t be duplicated in software. Of course, DxO had no idea what to do with these files, so I […]
Liv and a New Workflow
Monday, January 25th, 2016
I recently did a new shoot with the lovely and wonderful Liv Sage. Since I’ve been experimenting with alternatives to Adobe Photoshop for my editing, I decided to use different software for processing this new shoot. The starting point for my new workflow is DxO Optics Pro. It does the file conversion from the original […]
DxO Works
Saturday, January 16th, 2016
For my photographer friends: I’m beginning to establish a workflow with DxO Optics Pro. It seems to be working pretty well. I just needed to make a print of the photo in the last post here that was selected for the upcoming show at LightBox Photographic Gallery. I had already processed the photo in Photoshop. […]
More Liv in the New Year
Friday, January 1st, 2016
To get the new year off to a great start here are some new photos of Liv Sage from a shoot late last year. For the photo folk seeing this, these are my second attempt to edit files using DxO Optics Pro. I bought it on sale a couple days ago to see if it […]
Kat in Little Wild Horse Canyon
Monday, December 12th, 2011
“Our job is to record, each in his own way, this world of light and shadow and time that will never come again exactly as it is today.” – Edward Abbey Here’s Kat being beautiful in a couple narrow twisty bits of Little Wild Horse Canyon. These were shot with my 8mm fisheye lens. In […]
Brooke in Little Wild Horse Canyon
Saturday, December 10th, 2011
“The artist’s job? To be a miracle worker: make the blind see, the dull feel, the dead to live.” –Edward Abbey Here are a couple photos of Brooke down in Little Wild Horse Canyon. This canyon is fairly shallow and open, compared to some others, and we were there at mid-day, so we had a […]
Little Wild Horse Canyon
Wednesday, December 7th, 2011
“All we have, it seems to me, is the beauty of art and nature and life, and the love which that beauty inspires.” –Edward Abbey After our pause at the twin trees we headed on down into Little Wild Horse Canyon. This was my first time in this canyon, so I wasn’t […]
Moving On
Monday, December 5th, 2011
Getting back to the account of our trip out west…After spending some time at Goblin Valley, we moved on to Little Wild Horse Canyon, a nearby slot canyon. We had planned to dedicate a day to each of these locations, but thanks to the deer in Nebraska we were reduced to just one day for […]
