A photo and lighting place! Here I'll post some stuff I've shot in the process of learning.

Since my move to Fujifilm equipment (WAY sharper & MUCH better than my old Nikon gear) , I now shoot with two Fuji X-E2 bodies and the NEW X-T2 from Sherry on my birthday!


* Fujinon XF10-24 f/3.5-4.8 R (SHARP across the range!)
*
Fujinon XF18-55 f/2.8-4.0 R (SHARP across the range!)
* Fujinon XF60 f/2.4 (SHARP across the range!)
* Fujinon XF55-200 f/3.5-4.8 R (Uber SHARP across the range!)


Flash stuff:
* 6 Yongnuo 560-IV with commander/transmitter.
* 6 Nikon SB-25/26/28s (old, manual, reliable, nice),
* (6) Pocket Wizard and (6) Yongnuo RF-603 radio flash triggers

And
tons of stands, umbrellas, soft-boxes, brolly boxes, mounts, hot & cold shoes (and some lukewarm ones), cords, spigots, clamps, pocket wizard triggers, reflectors, scrims, backdrops, adapters, snoots, grids, batteries , chargers, bags & cases, gewgaws, clamps, gimcracks, whatchamacallits, doohickeys, thingamajigs, whatnots, widgets, et cetera.

I love to shoot out on the street, but the technical aspects of photography/lighting are fascinating - and sometimes vexing. I am fortunate to shoot with motivated and inquisitive photographers.


I am available for portraits, senior photos & product photography.

Commercially printed copies (up to 24" x 36" of most photos seen here are available on high quality paper or mounted board for framing.

BBQ & smoked meats - home and away

Start with 150 lbs. of green pig-nut hickory. Add 60 lbs of meat, a case of beer and a lovely fall day. That's the start of good BBQ.  

This is not yer namby-pamby-let's-get-out-the-Weber-dear BBQ. This is serious ten-hour, case-o-beer meat smoking. Me and my neighbor Jim smoked a little meat this weekend. Took a case of beer to get it done just right. Yum!
Smoked meat - promo flyer for the BBQ contest in Columbia

Smoked meat  - Blues HOG Rub

Smoked meat - "Flaming Flatulence"  sauce & some pork shoulders

Smoked meat - Juim and the necessities

Smoked meat - Searing the ribs

This weekend was Roots-and-Blues BBQ festival in Columbia. Pretty good BBQ (not as good as above), but a lot of interesting faces there.

 Transportation, living quarters, meat smoker and beer coolers - It's a guy thing!

And, plenty of food.
Fair food
