Sunday Drive

4 May ’20 by Ben

Photoshop?  Maybe…  The honest truth is I did combine 2 images.  The moon is NOT enlarged -vs- the frame it was shot in, but I did zoom out to get more clouds into the shot, then used a tighter shot of the moon so it took more space in the frame.  This is with my […]

Long Lens Fun!

2 May ’20 by Ben

I was invited to actually surf today.  Instead I took the camera along and had some fun but stayed warm and dry!  I’m working on a Sony 200-600mm review but figured I’d share 4 images from today.  I’ve got a ton more surging images to edit but figured I’d get one done tonight.  Enjoy.

Really Right Stuff Multiclamp

1 May ’20 by Ben

The really right stuff multiclamp is one of those accessories you don’t realize you need, but once you own one it gets used a lot more than you thought it would.  We’ve all been there.  Some super scenic landscape location, but with a railing telling you not to get any closer.  You set your tripod […]

100 Consecutive Ski Days!

29 Mar ’20 by Ben

I skied 100 consecutive days this past winter.  Not a 100 day season, (yes I got that too, I’m at 143 days on the season as I write this in May and 31 consecutive months) but 100 consecutive days.  I did this by becoming a ski instructor at Bridger this past winter.  I worked there […]

24GM!

4 Nov ’18 by Ben

Long time no blog.  Yeah, I need to work on that.  Yes we’ve moved to Montana.  Yes this year/spring/summer/fall has been a blur.  I’ll work on better updates…  BUT!  Sony released a fast 24mm lens!  This was my daily lens for the PADs I did back when the kids were born.  I’ve switch systems (twice!)

Eagles!

I love seeing bald eagles.  Both of these are nests close to the road where eagles are usually there anytime except winter.

Mammoth Camping Trip

30 Sep ’18 by Ben

We took our first family camping trip this weekend.  We went to mammoth hot springs and had a blast.  Of course it snowed on us at night but there’s no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing (we were ready!).  And of course we stopped at the boiling river on the way home! ” […]
