    EAJ Week 64 update:

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESS!!!!!  Not much to report today that hasn’t already been posted.  I shot the sunrise below this morning, and yesterday I got to go sailing for the first time this season.  Today, I finished the deck (yes there’s a pic, but it’s not up yet, just look at last weeks only both railings…

    Got up early this morning for another Sunrise shoot.  It was another nice morning, with a decent sunrise, but not as many clouds as last week.  I still came away with some keepers, but not as good as last weeks.

  • GoPro goes open sailing:

    GoPro goes open sailing:

    Took a day off deck work (deck’s almost done but still have the patio to do) to put sluff together and take her for the first sail of the summer.  I called up a buddy of mine from the photo forum who also sails (and also has a new kid and understanding wife) and he…

    Yeah, another midweek surprise post…  I tried to upload this a few weeks ago but vimeo stopped in the middle I guess.  I redid it tonight, so here you go:  

  • Memorial Day Weekend!

    Memorial Day Weekend!

    Well we had a great 3 day weekend this weekend (that’s why I’m posting this on Monday).  And actually it was a 3.5 day weekend for me because we got let out of work at noon because the power went out.  That actually helped a lot because I got to put 3 hours in on…

    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

    FS: Sigma 20mm EX DG

    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,…

    Newton Road II

    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…

    deck deck deck deck deck deck deck?

    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!

    Happy Mothers Day!

    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…

  • Aaaaand I’m back!

    Aaaaand I’m back!

    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…

  • All Done!

    All Done!

    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…
