Recently*, a podcast that I listen to fielded a question about staying photographically motivated. The question was – and I’m paraphrasing – “Help! I’m a photographer living in boring Nebraska. What can I possibly photograph?” The podcasters gave some advice, but I think there is more to say to this photographer who, like me, lives… Continue reading Photographing the Everyday

Top Ten for 2017
It's always hard to choose just 10 photos that represent a year's work, but that's precisely why I do it! Each year, I look critically at a year's worth of photos, roughly 1200 published photos - ! it's been a busy year - and decide on the best of the best. This year, I created… Continue reading Top Ten for 2017
Baby, It’s Cold Outside!
We're going through a bit of a cold snap here in St. Louis. I don't have any objection to photographing when it's cold, but it's a lot of effort to layer-up for a cold weather shoot and there aren't a lot of people out-and-about. So, I'm not out making a lot of photos. In this… Continue reading Baby, It’s Cold Outside!

This post includes everything from camera to lenses to what's in my camera bag with a light review. If it's in my bag, I like… Continue reading My Gear: Sony & Peak Design
I Have a Theme
When traveling, I'm always on the move, seeing different places and people every day, but when photographing locally - within a hour's drive of my home - I often see the same things again and again. Boring!! But not so! Repeating photography opportunities are not to be avoided. Returning to the same place or event… Continue reading I Have a Theme
