Day 13, my last day in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge made a huge impression on me. Up until this time my focus was squarely on capturing the pristine beauty of the environment and wildlife. On this day I had the opportunity to see the impact of man on this unique environment. With in the photo gallery of this days highlights are images designated with the labels “Landscape Comparison” or “Hand

I recently upgraded my ipod and started downloading videocasts along with a few select podcasts. Recently I caught a videocast from AtomFilms of a movie made from one girls self portrait photos taken every day between 2001 and 2004. If you haven’t seen this its a must see. “Me” on AtomFilms

Photos from Day 12 of my trip to the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge have been added to my web site.

In addition to the amazing scenery captured in these panoramics there are a v

Last year I had an amazing time discovering a new must see portion of San Francisco, the Lands End Labyrinth. Over time I got a chance to meet with the creator of the labyrinth, Eduardo Aguilar, interview him, see him in action building a new labyrinth and take part in one of his solstice events centered around the labyrinth. Not content keeping this information to myself I put out an article on my site, San Francisc

For sometime I’ve been asked what techniques I use to capture my panoramic photos and recently I had the opportunity to conduct a presentation on the topic. Inspired by the feedback from those I’ve talked to and presented to I’ve written up an article on how to Master Digital Panoramic Photography. If you’re new to panoramic photography I hope this helps you learn the ropes and for those with

Updates include daily highlights and images. So far 10 days have been posted of the 12 days in the field.
