Andy and I went to Hazard Rock this morning as another “group” shoot for the forum. The sky was pretty amazing this morning so it was well worth the effort to get up so early. The only down side to hazard rock is there’s one obvious EPIC spot (notice ~6 shots that are variations on…

FS: Sigma 20mm EX DG

in blog, lenses

Well, I’m selling the 20mm. This is a VERY hard decision… It’s a great lens. Nice and wide (and we all know I LOVE wide lenses) and fast as well. It’s just that I can’t keep both this and the canon 24mm so I have to pick one. I like the width of the 20mm,…

Woke up SUPER early again this morning for another “group” NSOP sunrise meet. I say super because civil twilight (when we meet) was ~4:45am so I was up at 4:00am and out shortly after. Group is in quotes because it was just me and Andy. Jeff is in the middle of his drive to SF…

yeah, I’m working on the deck. So this update will be a little short on verbiage as I’m BEAT. Getting up yesterday for sunrise shooting didn’t help (but was worth it). Nikki did let me sleep in a bit this morning, but I’m more exhausted physically than I am tired. Anyway, you can see the…

Happy mothers day to all the moms out there. Elias and I had some fun making some crafts for Nikki yesterday. I picked up a few canvases and some finger paints on the way home Friday. While Nikki was out running her 10k on BI Elias and I went to work. I also managed to…

Yep, I drove down to MD for a party with some friends this weekend. Yes the weather was terrible for the drive home but doesn’t matter, I’d go again in a heartbeat! Had a great time and came home to Elias missing me (he wanted and got a huge hug as soon as I got…

Elias is starting to learn to talk, but “All Done!” has been something he’s known for a few months now. Obviously he’s got Dada down as well. I’m posting this now because I’ll be away for most of the weekend (I’m driving to VA tomorrow and back Sunday) so I figured I’d toss this up…

Septic tanks? Yeah, that first shot is the cover to our tank. Why on earth is it on the blog you ask? Well we had it pumped back in January, but the weather (and our social schedule) has kept us from getting to any yard work until last weekend. So the first order of business…

We had another NSOP meet this morning. Might be the last, or at least the last with Jeff (he’s the guy that knows the best spots) as he’s moving to CA in a couple weeks. It’ll be sad to see him go, but at least we had 2 months of shooting together, plus he’ll still…

Went out shooting with our NSOP sunrise group. We’ve been having a ton of fun on these shoots and getting some great shots, but I’d say this was my favorite shoot yet. We went to one of Jeff’s favorite spots down in Narragansett called hazard rock. It’s at the end of Hazard street. I’ve driven…

Elias is really starting to take off on us now. He can walk as much as he wants to. He can stand for a minute or so on his own, and THEN walk from room to room. He’s still not quite as fast as he is when he’s doing his head down speed crawl, so…

New Gear: DEAL EXTREME!!!

in accessories, blog, gear

I finally broke down and ordered an off camera cord to help me learn flash. I went with a Chinese knock off over the canon because of the price. Because it was so “inexpensive” I also picked up a few other things from dealextreme while I was “there”. The tripod head is an “inexpensive” knockoff…

Happy Easter!
