July 2010 Photo of the Month
It is almost time. A time when the snow covered meadows that surround Mount Rainier National Park begin to erupt into a summer splendor of pattern and color. It was almost a year to the day that I captured this image. It is a study of pattern and texture. There is no single subject for [...]
June 2010 Photo of the Month
The spring in Washington has be really windy this year. Since this is my first year here, I am not really sure if it happens every year. It seems like every road bike ride is into the wind–both ways–for all of the miles. For this month’s photo I wanted something that would portray that wind. [...]
May 2010 Photo of the Month
Our photo this month was taken by Jay last summer while he was working on a project in Yellowstone National Park. The reason we decided to post it for the photo of the month this month is because Jay is there right now shooting more images for the project. Hopefully he will be willing to “leak” [...]
March 2010 Photo of The Month
I often look to abstract painters for inspiration in my photographic work. This idea of looking elsewhere is not new, I know many photographers that do it. It has done one major thing for me – put me always on the look out for new and interesting compositions. I don’t care what time of day [...]
February 2010 Photo of the Month
I have had a really good week. Colleague John O’Conner inspired me with a few super simple image compositions that he posted to his facebook page. I drew more inspiration from a video of urban trials rider Danny MacAskill. And, was able to witness an amazing light display at my own private beach that allowed [...]
December 2009 Photo of the Month
Last week the rain that we have been engulfed in for over six weeks just decided to up and clear one afternoon. I was so shocked that I almost didn’t grab my camera and head out. I was “too busy working on the computer”,”in a van, down by the river” and did not want to [...]
November 2009 Photo of the Month
Winter is slowly creeping upon us. I was thinking of a place. Someplace that I have only been to once. Playa del Carmen, Mexico. I am not a beach goer in any sense of the word. I would rather sit and freeze my but off in the mountains any day of the week, searching for [...]
August 2009 Photo of the Month
I have been really busy working for commercial clients, which has kept me at the computer screen for what seems like years now, even though it has only been a couple of weeks. A few days ago I got to escape to shoot the sunset about 5 miles from my house in an area where [...]
May 2009 Photo of the Month
It was hard for me to choose an image for this month’s photo, probably because I am still recovering from the birth of our son Micah. I am not a queasy guy, blood, has little to no effect on me. I have watched numerous surgeries without even the thought of feeling uneasy. Yes I am [...]
February 2009 Photo of the Month
Heather and I have been together for almost 12 years. We have always struggled to find a New Year’s celebration that has kept us talking about the experience for the months following. The parties that we remember often are the ones in which we were always with those closest to our hearts. I think 2000 [...]
