Ox Wagons Of Okinawa Japan

First off, I have to say Okinawa is pretty cool. It’s one of those places you have to go to or at least try to at some point in your life. While there, I kept thinking I was in Hawaii, but nobody spoke English. Except it’s not an annoying tourist trap like Hawaii is. This…
Mochi Girl – Japan Street Photography

The past few months have been crazy. All I’ve done is work, leaving me with very little time to shoot photography. I’m still trying to find the perfect balance between posting photography and camera news, which is tricky. Posting tutorials and news is more friendly to Google, which gets my site more views, which is…
Serenity – La Jolla California

It’s been a while since I’ve been to the Scripps Pier. I know it’s a hot spot for landscape photographers now because of Peter Lik. And it was. I had to wait in line to get this shot, but I needed to finish it. I’ve been slowly working on shooting all the piers of Southern…
New Release – Last Light

This was the final frame from my night at Joshua Tree National Park. It was taken a moment before the moon set behind the mountains, casting the landscape into total darkness.

Fukuoka Airport HDR Photo

This was from my last moments in Japan at the Fukuoka Airport. The photography gods finally appeared at the end there and gave me one last blessing. We ate dinner in a restaurant when the sun lit the sky. Luckily, my Sony A7r wasn’t packed away with the rest of my gear.

After shooting with the A7r for the last 6 months I’ve decided to do a write-up on batteries and what batteries you should buy for your Sony mirrorless camera.
Behind The Shot – The Fuji Tunnel

The Kawachi Fuji Garden is one of those hot spots/places to see before you die in Japan. This location has two tunnels, a dome, a small trail, and an additional Fuji flower rack. It is pretty cool and very photogenic. Although I was about a week early to get the full Fuji flower blast, the…
The Golden Rice Terraces

After my fourth visit to Japan, I finally got the landscape photo I always wanted. It encompasses everything I love about Japan in a single shot: the golden sunset over the island-filled seas with the rice field terraces in the foreground. Everything was perfect for this shot, which rarely happens to me. The weather was…
