We're still in the throws of winter here in the American mid-west. Lots of gray, cold days for us! The weather's getting me down so I'm looking for a bit of a pick-me-up this week. Let's make the colors the story of the photo. This week.... Photograph Bright Colors

Let’s (Not) Talk Gear
The question on the table is: What gear do you need? Really need? Anyone familiar with PhotoYoga knows that this site is not much interested in the gear - this could almost be the “anti-gear” photography website. I’m not saying there isn’t a time to talk toolbox, it can just take over the conversation. ...

All Beach: Colorado Sand Dunes
It’s summer and I’ve made a trip to Colorado to visit family. Colorado is nothing if it’s not varied. There are the aspens and sweeping mountain views, but Colorado is also the southwest (the hint is in the name: Color-Red).

Do I choose the place that I'm from? The sweeping plains of the midwest United States with the vast skies and minimalist landscape?

Photographing the Everyday
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.
