Well, its about that time that I show you my favorite photos submitted to the monthly theme group on flickr for February. The theme last month was “shapes” and…you guys, you did amazing! This is SO HARD for me, because I really want to showcase ALL of your photos because there were so [...]
You guys are all aware that I’m attempting three photography-related projects this year. Well, less than two full months into the project, I’m already cheating on one of them (my 52 photowalks). I started to feel guilty about this for about 2 second before I fully rationalized my decisions and decided, ya know [...]
I’m about to get a bunch of my photos printed and framed from my 52 Photowalk project last year (including the one you see above), and I thought this would be a good time to discuss why I think this is such an important thing to do.
I’ve decided on three major photography projects for 2010. I think it’s important to post about what they are so that I can be held accountable.

I debated this a lot. In 2008 I did a 366 project (leap year and all), so I attempted a second [...]
Today I went on my last photowalk of 2009. Once a week, for 52 weeks in a row, I’ve left my house with my camera and taken photos. That was the only rule I gave myself for this project, too. I didn’t have to find other people to walk with (though I [...]
So. The holidays are coming up, and if your family is anything like mine, they want a list from you of things that you want.
When it comes to a photography habit, it’s really easy to think “geez, everything I want is totally out of my family’s price range.” But that’s not always the [...]

I recently posted the above photo on flickr and I was talking about it to a friend, who asked for some more details on how exactly I produced that shot.
That led me to think about my preferences for shooting flowers. Here are some of my tips:
I’ve recently gone through a bit of a rut when it comes to my photography – feeling unmotivated to take pictures, and when I do, just feeling rather “meh” about the results. And so, here’s my list of suggestions on what to do when this happens to you.
1. Look through your old photos
Chances [...]
I just got back from our vacation – we had a wonderful time. I’ve barely had time to get my photos off the camera, let alone edit them, so to the three photos you see in this entry are SOOC (Straight Out of Camera), with the exception of converting them from RAW.
On Thursday, I [...]
The very first photo I edited from a RAW file. Looking back, I’d change a lot about it now – mostly the tilted horizon. *shudder* I apologize. This is why looking back to see how much you’ve changed in a year is a good thing.
In a recent entry, Chrisitine asked about shooting in [...]
