Super Moon & Photographers

Photographers love the moon! More then histograms or new lenses, photographers see a moon and it has to be incorporated in the photograph. No matter if it's a micro dot, no matter if you can't see the "man on the moon." If there's a moon in the sky, it's in the photograph. This weekends "Super Moon" had photographers around the globe pointing there lenses up shooting the bigger, brighter moon. Our group from Photoshop of Shooter this weekend had photographing the moon as an assignment. How could any photographer pass it up? I've seen lots and lots of Super Moon ...

Making the Uncommon of the Common

One of the goals of wildlife photography is to make the uncommon photo of the common. Whenever you do that, you have a winning photograph, it's that simple. Or is it? Capturing the uncommon can encompass many techniques either separately or in combination which makes it a challenge.

K&M Adventure FL … 3rd Morning

We started a new tradition at our K&M Adventure Monument Valley of going to some place new neither Kevin or I have been to before. It's a way to see not only how we deal with a new location, but share visual ideas as they come to us. So this morning on word from some birders (which turned out irronious) we headed to Myakka River State Park. It's really a gorgeous place, when it's not hot and there is moody light. We arrived when the ground fog was amazingly thick so we slammed on the brakes and stopped in this ...

K&M Advetnures FL…2nd Morning

So we arrive at North Beach lagoon at Fort DeSoto to see nothing, zero, nada bird but a lonely GBH way off in the distance. For the start of our 2nd day of our K&M Adventure FL, I was a bit nervous. I mean, the idea is to be shooting cool subjects. Well, I really didn't pause, walked right over to the beach. And at first, didn't see much but then after a couple of minutes, the birds started to appear at the wave line and we never looked back! It was a killer morning, I filled 2009 images from ...
