Troutt Eclipse
Thursday, August 1st, 2024
When I was shooting with the amazing Melissa Troutt I noticed that a lunar eclipse was going to be happening. In the days of film with Tri-X, perhaps processed in Acufine which gave a pretend ISO of around 1600, the idea of shooting a lunar eclipse with a model in the foreground was just impossible. […]
More Than A Test
Sunday, November 5th, 2023
When I bought my new Nikon Z7ii and finally got the Nikkor 24-120 lens to go with it, I set up a shoot with a new (to me) model to test them out together. Rayn Ravyn is a beautiful lady and a great subject for this test. I’ve added these black and white conversions to […]
More Carrie at School
Sunday, October 15th, 2023
Here’s another set of photos of the lovely and talented Carrie Turner at an old schoolhouse. The old classroom offered a nice background with a lot of options to use the light in different ways. And working with a beautiful model obviously didn’t hurt. For these photos I used a trusty old Nikkor lens that […]
Back to School with Carrie
Tuesday, October 10th, 2023
For a time beautiful, talented model Carrie Turner had studio space in an old school building. We did a couple shoots there. These photos are from the first time we worked together there. I was working with my new Nikon Z7ii camera. I didn’t yet have a z-mount lens to use with it, so I […]
This is More Than a Test
Tuesday, October 3rd, 2023
When I got my new Nikon Z7ii the camera body arrived before the lens I had ordered for it. But I did get an adapter so I could use my old F-mount lenses with the new camera, so, of course, I had to do some testing. I got together with wonderful model and muse, Eden, […]
Nikon Z vs Micro 4/3
Tuesday, August 8th, 2023
Taking a break for today from nudes in nature. About a year and a half ago I bought a Nikon Z7II. I was still very happy with my pair of Panasonic GX8s, but I wanted the higher resolution for a documentary project I was starting. So I shelled out way too much money for the […]
Sunday is Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day
Friday, April 28th, 2023
I’m getting ready to do my annual pinhole photo for Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day this Sunday, April 30. I do this every year, so I thought I’d post a few of my past pinhole photos. The one above was picked off the pinhole day website by the Washington Post to publish with their story about […]
More Wildflowers
Tuesday, July 12th, 2022
Just sharing a few more snaps of the wildflowers I’ve got growing on a section of our property. Trying to cut down on mowing and encourage wildlife. Judging by the way a lot of the long grass is tamped down, I think the local deer population has decided they like this area. If you take […]
Dogwood
Friday, June 10th, 2022
More flowers. The late-blooming Dogwood in front of our house is in full bloom now. So, I couldn’t resist pointing the new Nikon Z7II at it for a few snaps.
Wildflowers
Sunday, June 5th, 2022
I’ve stopped mowing a part of our too-large lawn and planted trees and wildflowers. This is the first year that the wildflowers are showing up. So I took the new Nikon Z7II out and did a few flower photos. I’t’s been said that there is no reason for anyone to ever take another photo of […]
