    August 7, 2022 – Welcome To Las Vegas Again.

    One simple strategy that has helped me when shooting landscape, city or street photography is revisiting a location often. This seems obvious but I think it’s easy to dismiss a place that seems familiar and that you have a lot of shots of already. This area around the Welcome To Las Vegas sign is a…

    August 5, 2022 – Neon Signs And Gatekeepers

    Hey! It’s Friday morning where I live. So good morning and happy Friday. I posted these pics on Twitter following that trend where people post the camera then the photos. I normally post B&Ws so it’s fun to share some color work. I don’t have a ton to say today because I have a lot…

    August 4, 2022 – Beneath The Clouds

    I’m sure you’ve heard me mention this before but we don’t get many cloudy days in the Las Vegas area. Most of my photos have a clear blue sky as the backdrop. During this time of year, monsoon season, we will get some fantastic clouds. We get clouds during this time that other states see…

    August 2, 2022 – Why Even Instagram?

    I realize I’m older than the most of the active users on Instagram and TikTok. My opinions on the state of social media and its effects on photography have zero impact and maybe minimal value but the changing social media landscape is fascinating to watch. Instagram is doing it’s best to become TikTok and TikTok…

  • August 1, 2022 – Hello, August.

    August 1, 2022 – Hello, August.

    Hello August, Where has the time gone? As I get older I’ll never come to terms with how much faster the years seem to fly by. I’m looking foward to the high temps to calm down when it’s more conducive to go out and shoot more regularly. I’ll post some updates about gear soon but…

    July 29, 2022 – Stormy Weather

    I don’t have have much to say on this blog entry but I’m trying to challenge myself to take a photo that is at least someone what interesting each day. This one is looking out one of my front windows at the storm clouds that just rolled in. I was born in the midwest but…

  • Love Of Small Prints

    Love Of Small Prints

    Right now in my photography journey I am still so in love with black and white photography and making black and white prints. I stopped shooting film and sold my darkroom equipment last year. For many reasons I decided it was better for me to go all in with an all digital workflow. Creating prints…

    July 25, 2022 – Blog Redesign

    Although I have blogged more often the past few days, I haven’t done it daily. I could do it daily, or at least try it daily but I don’t always have something interesting to say. For now it will be often but not daily, or at least I won’t set out to do it daily.…

    JULY 22, 2022 – My Yearly Creative Patterns

    Photography has always been in my life but the role it has played in my creative life has changed over the years. At certain times when I was younger it was a major creative focus, then music took over, or filmmaking, or writing, or “insert other creative endeavors here”. About 10 years ago, when I…

    July 21, 2022

    I’ve had this blog for 4 years now. I’ve been really active with it sometimes and other times I go months without any new posts, like now. I always tell myself I should be more active but with Instagram moving away further and further away from the still image I’m even more motivated now to…
