    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

    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…

    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 22, 2022 – My Yearly Creative Patterns

    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…

    Dehancer Film Emulation Review + 2 Free Presets (Plus 10% OFF Dehancer Discount Code: CBPHOTO22 )

    Last week I uploaded a new YouTube video reviewing and showing the Dehancer plug-in. (I have discount code for Dehancer at the bottom of this blog) I get review offers from some small companies often but I don’t want to accept just any partnership. Any sponsorship or review I do has to make sense with…

  • REUNITED WITH THE FUJIFILM X-T2

    REUNITED WITH THE FUJIFILM X-T2

    Well…I have 3 cameras again. I’m hopeless, seriously. I need help. G.A.S. is real and I have no cure, lol, but allow me to attempt to justify my purchase of the Fujifilm X-T2 to the gods of photography gear. First off, I’ve always wanted to own an X-T2 again since the day I let my…

  • “STREET SAGE” – FUJIFILM FILM SIMULATION RECIPE

    “STREET SAGE” – FUJIFILM FILM SIMULATION RECIPE

    As with many of my recipes, Street Sage is a result of experimenting. I wanted to see what would happen if you took the rich Velvia and reduced color, contrast and gave it a slight green tint. I like these experiments. I think you can get some interesting results depending on what you’re shooting with…

  • MY FUJIFILM X-H1 (Update: I’m Keeping It)

    MY FUJIFILM X-H1 (Update: I’m Keeping It)

    Last week I posted a video that was just a long rambling video of thoughts about my Fujifilm X-T4. This week I decided to make a similar video about my X-H1. Last month I had posted that I was thinking of selling my X-H1 and getting a different “second” Fujifilm camera. Last year I owned…
