Plum Beach Light in the fog
This is an oldie that somehow never made it to the blog… This was shot February 2nd 2014. This is one of my last landscape shots with my 5Diii back when I had a tamron 150-600 in EF mount. I’d ordered it when it was announced and it shipped after I’d already started selling my…

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
We’ve had a great last week with both Christmas and New Years coming and going faster than we’d like. Elias was back in school today but already knows tomorrow is a snow day!… I ended up getting the flu the week before Christmas and developed pneumonia as well so I’ve been a bit slowed down…

Happy Thanksgiving!
Had a great thanksgiving weekend last weekend. The whole family had 4 days off and we enjoyed it. We had 2 thanksgiving dinners, tons of leftovers and even got out to get a tree. We avoided black friday (but did get lights for the house that day) and just had a great time relaxing. We…

December 2013 landscapes
Got out shooting twice over the last two weekends. Last weekend David Simms and I headed to Sakonnet Point to shoot the lighthouse from Lloyd’s Beach. That’s one of my favorite beaches! The wind was brutal but we were still able to come home with some keepers. This weekend I tried to shoot the windmill…

Think Tank Retro 7 Review
What’s to say about the retro 7? Well, first make sure you’ve read and watched my retro 10 and retro 5 reviews! Why? Well because the retro 7 is basically a retro 10 with 1~2″ of the space from the camera compartment taken to make space for a padded iPad/macbook Air compartment. Yes you can…

ThinkTankPhoto Airport Ultralight V2.5 video review:
I recently did a sailboat delivery from Myrtle Beach SC to the Bahamas. I’ve been wanting a pelican case for my gear around the house for a while now (to keep kids/dust/dirt out of it) and I figured this trip was the perfect excuse to finally bite the bullet and order the 1514 (the version…

Made it down to NYC for the photo expo again. I LOVE this show. Yes, I’m a gear-head, so it’s really nice to go check out the new stuff in person without having a salesperson try to get you to buy it. Here’s a quick rundown of what I found new and exciting:

Fujifilm X-E2 initial impressions:
Alright, so I got my XE2 friday night and have shot with it all weekend. I also got my 23mm 1.4 at the same time so a large portion of my “dream” small camera system (I prefer EVIL, thankyouverymuch) has now arrived. Once the 10-24 and 56mm arrive I’ll be all set. Anyway, here’s a…
