Still alive...

A recent project in Colorado has made the postings for this blog a bit thin. I'm now back in the Northwest, and more (semi) regular postings should resume soon... Please bear with me as I get back up to speed.

Also, a special thanks goes out to the folks who bought me a beer or coffee these past few weeks. The coffee was hot, and the beer was very, very tasty. Again, thank you so much.

Always keep a camera handy...

I've always been a firm believer in keeping a camera (with charged batteries and an empty flash card) nearby and handy, just in case an interesting photo opportunity should come up during regular daily life activities. Honestly, it drives my friends and family absolutely crazy when they see me run off to my truck to pull out the trusty ol' Nikon, because they just know that an impromptu photo session is about to begin.

Below is a very impromptu image, taken while the Christmas ornaments were coming down.



Teenage girls are so dang' goofy...

Shot with my older Nikon D200. Lit from just above frame with a small Chimera softbox. A Vivitar 285 (at 1/16th power) was inside the softbox.
