New possibilities...

I've been testing some new camera equipment, and it's amazing how digital imaging technology keeps moving forward.  I would have never attempted trying a shot like this unless I planned on doing some HDR conversion at home on the computer.

The camera can handle all of that with a single click and a brief wait for it to process.  It call also do in camera pano stitching, 3D, HD Video, and much more.

This post isn't about the specific camera I'm testing (for right now), but more about the possibilities opened up in shooting.... more time in the field... less time behind the computer.

Exciting.

Say cheese

My iPhone is getting me to explore new possibilities, and probably impacting photography as much as the DSLR did...

Smile for the camera!

Technology is changing how we view the world, and the world itself.... some for the better, some not.

We've now got tools that are always with us... we can tell stories only limited by our imaginations.

Economic Outlook

you lift me up
then drop me again
you fill me
I runneth over again
lifetimes have seconds
to be reborn and then die
you're a turn of succession
before winters cry
so stirring
it's autumn again...

...things aren't looking good

Merged and wet

Who says you can't take photos on a rainy day...  You might have to get a little creative, but there's no reason to put your camera away.

Look out the window of a coffee shop of people walking down the street with their umbrellas, or find a relatively dry spot to set up your camera and shoot reflections from passing cars on wet streets at dusk.

Next time it rains, look around....  the possibilities are boundless.

Anyone who thinks the economy has recovered isn't paying attention.

We've been sold vapor and lies....  empty words, the rhetoric of failure.

we, so tired close our eyes
and cast our nets out
for some dreams
