Aurora HDR 2019 Review

When I first started using Aurora back in 2017 it really felt like the beginning of something awesome. Like the baby alien that just burst out of Kanes chest in the first Alien movie, it took off running doing all these mysterious things behind the scenes. The little creature continued to grow while occasionally popping…
Voigtlander 15mm F4.5 Heliar III Review & Sample Images

The Voigtlander 15mm F4.5 lens is a Leica lens that’s been optimized for mirrorless digital sensors. This lens has an aperture of f4.5 to f22. It’s extremely small and light with full manual controls making it an incredibly fun lens to use. Plus it looks amazing.
Under The Bridge

This is another shot from the car. We were driving across an extension bridge, and I made the time perfectly with my Sony A7r. Getting a shot like this on the tripod with this kind of symmetry would be difficult enough; to think that I got it while sitting in the passenger seat of a car going 40km/h is…
Shooting Japan From Inside A Car

This trip to Japan has had me in the car a lot. Driving, driving, driving. Especially in Hokkaido, where I had the flu. That was not fun. Two days with a fever and some bronchitis sprinkled on top. I’ve also learned a new meaning of pain. Descending from 36,000 feet in an airplane with congested sinuses. Anyway, something…
Lost In The Woods – A7r

As I’ve been getting ready to leave for Japan next week, I was sifting through some of my old photos from last year that I’ve never published and found this shot. My wife and I found this cool little bamboo forest growing naturally near Magaribuchi Dam Park in nowhere. It was very peaceful and undisturbed,…
Walt Disney Concert Hall With The A7r

I brought along the A7r to shoot around Downtown Los Angeles. I haven’t really shot down here since my 5Dmkii days and wanted to start getting some updated shots with my newer gear. I also didn’t have a lens really wide enough on my Fuji to pull this off.
Tamron 15-30mm f2.8 Detailed Review & Sample Images

The new Tamron’s 15-35mm f2.8 Ultra-Wide Zoom lens has now shipped and I’ve been lucky enough to get my hands on one. This is the latest and greatest from Tamron and is designed to feed the hungry 50 megapixels on the new Canon 5Ds and other high megapixel cameras. To see how true this claim is, I’ve…
Fire In The Sky

I just picked up the new Tamron 15-30mm ultra-wide-angle zoom lens and have already had a few great experiences with it. I’ve been working on a detailed review but still need one more day with it before it’s done. Look for that tomorrow or this weekend. So far, I’m only liking it, not loving it.…
The Rental Jeep On The Big Island

Renting a Jeep to take photos with on the Big Island of Hawaii is fun. I rented one for two days to see if those 4 wheel access spots were worth it. They were not. I’m pretty sure those tourist guides and the rental car companies profit from each other. Needing a 4-wheel drive on…
