In August of 2015, I shared here that it was time to sell my Olympus E-M1. I owned that camera for almost 2 years after really loving the M43 format on my Olympus PEN E-PL2. It was a great format because the camera was so small, light and unassuming. You could walk around with a …

Photography: Five Days in The Bay Area and San Francisco
I can’t visit San Francisco without talking about it here. The thing is, there’s not a lot to say on this blog that I want to waste your time on. San Francisco will always feel like home and despite everything you’ve heard lately about the city, it’s still a wonderful place. The Bay Area in …
Photography: 2001 to 2020
My iPhoto Library starts in 2001 and it contains every photo I’ve ever taken. You can see that exhibited in this one image showing camera models in my iPhoto Library…well it’s called Photos for Mac but old habits die hard: I acquired the 5D Mark 3 in 2015 and relaxed it with the Mark IV …
Photography: A nearly complete rig without the skills to match
In my December 24th blog post about my acquisition of the 5D Mark IV, I wrote: I still want to eventually purchase that (70-200) lens and maybe that’ll finally happen this year. The other lens I want is to sell my ‘kit lens’ 24-105 f/4 and purchase the 24-70 f/2.8. It’s built better and has …

Photography: The Canon 5D Mark IV
This year, I had only $2,000 to spend on a way to upgrade my camera setup and prior to mid-December I was dead set on FINALLY purchasing a Canon 70-200mm lens. I was even going to stoop to F/4 territory if I had to. I wanted a lens that superseded the ‘zoom with your feet’ …
Travel / Photography: Five Days in Netherlands & Belgium
It’ a trip and itinerary I’ve executed at least 20 times since I joined this company 9 years ago. Every time, the places stay the same but the photos are different. There’s some value in sharing them here. Enjoy.
Photography: Porter, 2 years old
It was nearly 0 degrees outside but Porter turned 2 so we went to the dog park and threw the ball around. Technically, he’s Heather’s dog and we’re not sure what breed he is but he’s very well trained, exceptionally so without being a show dog. He’s a very good weight for his age and …
Travel: Christmas in Florida in Photos
There’s so much to write lately but my carpal tunnel these days is keeping me from writing much after a long day of writing for a living. I’ll have to let photos tell you about my trip: Got home and used Christmas money from family to purchase a snow-blower!
