Time is one of those things that slips by quicker and quicker with each passing year. In actuality it doesn’t, but for some reason our perception of time is diminished as we age, perhaps it’s simply the scale of relativity… I don’t know… what I do know is I took some images of a wonderful…
Capturing memories and moments in time, is a large part of what a photographer does. It’s nice to be invited to share special moments in a families life. Going forward I’ll be offering family sessions,and packages so that your family can have images and prints you will cherish over your lifetime. My friend Angie invited…
Photoshop is a tricky beast, in part one Scratch that! , I talked about using a scratch disk to help improve performance. If you did that, you’ve probably already noticed an improvement, but why not try for more. Just a bit more on scratch disks. If you run shy on space on your scratch disk try limiting…

The Canon 600EX-RT flashes have built in radio transmitters in addition to traditional optical wireless transmission. This allows two-way wireless transmission up to 30m, among up to 5 groups with a total of 15 individual Speedlites. So if you are using these Speedlites you no longer need to buy additional pocket wizards. How well does it…

In theory I can offer my opinion on which camera is best suited to underwater photography, but in reality I haven’t scuba-dived since Oakley Frogskins were in fashion (the first time around), and I never used a camera underwater.

I was asked yesterday, and I couldn’t clearly remember what the exact difference between each mode is. So I looked it up and decided to add a post this morning before I forget.
