Postcards from Indiana… and a few from Michigan: We took a road trip to see Carrie’s family and celebrate Grandma Elsie’s 90th birthday :) Here are my favorite frames. The barn I always see on hwy 25 between Logansport and 31. Finally stopped to take this wide-angle. Some Photoshop love: lens correction and crop,...
When I have a holiday or a long weekend or some other trip, I always take my camera bag. It’s full of lenses, batteries, and good intentions. Well, I think I go on vacation and sometimes I take a break from the camera as well! I did take it out once at my parent’s house...

It was a couple of weeks ago now, but hey – she’ll be 4 for a whole year, right? I’ve been swamped with editing various photos and videos, this batch included, but am getting through them.

That’s the strawberry patch in the background: Tech: natural light at 6p, f10, iso100,...

A friend of mine was Freddie last Halloween (complete with homemade glove and face goo), so I got some shots of him in a dark alley just a couple weeks ago. Wanted the flash behind him, but didn’t have radio triggers yet (the Canon IR didn’t work :( so we settled for the streetlight up...

Can someone tell me what they are? They are climbing the trellis on our side door porch, and a few days ago they were in all 3 stages: closed, almost open, and fully open. Had to stop and take a few shots while the light was good (when I come home it’s shaded already). This...
