Final week photography course selection
Hi everyone. I havent posted here in a long time, I'd been struggling with my photography and my editing process and wasnt taking a lot of photos. Now however I'm trying to do what I can to move from hobbyist to paid photographer. I've had my D90 for 3-4 years now (just purchased a new Nikon 70-200 f2.8), I've taken photos… -
Wild West Tour 2019, Part 1
Ok folks, here it goes... Two weeks ago today we got back from our month-long trip to the American Southwest (plus California). I'm a native Californian and although I haven't lived there since 1977 I've visited many times and have family and friends scattered all over. My partner is German and had never visited the west… -
from Midcoast to Acadia, a mid-October wander
I try to get to Acadia National Park twice a year, once in May, and once in October. This year's May trip was early in the month; the park was pretty empty. My October trip had somewhat odd timing in that it coincided with Columbus Day. I try to avoid holidays on my visits to a favorite national park since I prefer quiet… -

Journals of a wedding photography adventure
Every morning this week my alarm woke me 6:30, and I opened my eyes hoping the weather would cooperate and it was the day. Finally on Thursday, it did and it was. I got out of bed loaded up my gear and dropped my kids at the sitters. I arrived at the hotel to find typical wedding morning happenings... the bride is running… -
Stat Reporting
Good evening, I'm a bit confused on the "Stats" that are reported on SmugMug. A couple months ago I remember reading a blog post about how everyone was excited that Stats were getting upgraded and were gunna be a lot more useful. Tonight I decided to try to see whether or not posting my photos to a couple of websites… -
Re: Lens preference for Disney World? Help!
I love me some f/2.8 or f/1.4 for low-light situations. If you ask me, that's when Disneyland comes alive! But over the years, (passholder) ...I've ventured around D-land with all manner of cameras and lenses, my favorite being my Nikon FM2 and a 24mm and 50mm prime. Manual exposure / focus, but gorgeous colors on some of… -

Re: Bare bones equipment for weddings/portraits, the role of "second shooter"
Getting started with my great new equipment So I've bought the canon 17-55, 580 exII, and fong cloud and attached them to my Rebel-- now I have to learn to use everything! I also know that I need to know a lot more about manual settings as prior to this point I've used auto, which is clearly not going to work well with my… -
Re: How about some college football pics!
Russ, I think you've got some nice shots here. But there's opportunity to do even better: shot 1: soft - not sure if it's missed focus or motion blur. Also a lot of dead space - especially on the left. I think tighter framing/crop would work better shot 2: good atmosphere shot. Great as is. Shot 3: again - a lot of…
