A photo and lighting place! Here I'll post some stuff I've shot in the process of learning.
Mostly, I shoot with: Nikon D700 or my NEW D7000,
Sigma lenses: * 70-200mm f/2.8 HSM-II (sports & portrait - SHARP!) * 24-70mm f/2.8 HSM (my fave), * 105mm EX macro (VERY sharp!), & * My new 12-24mm EX HSM (WIDE!). Other: * Nikkor 70-300 f/4-5.6 VR HSM (pretty cheap, disposable, pretty sharp out to 200mm and a long reach with a crop frame), * Nikkor 70-210mm f/4 (light and compact, but not as sharp as the Sigma 70-200 EX), * Nikkor 60mm micro (UBER SHARP LIKE THE SIGMA 105 EX).
Flash stuff: * Nikon SB800 (2, with ttl cord), * 4 Nikon SB-25/26s (old, manual, reliable, nice), * 6 ancient Sunpak 611 flashes (old, manual, reliable, nice) with big SLA battery packs for studio, tabletop macro and portraits (GN=168 = lotsa light for a $50 flash).
And tonsof stands, umbrellas, soft-boxes, mounts hot & cold shoes, cords, pocket wizard radio triggers, reflectors, scrims, backdrops, adapters, snoots, grids, batteries , chargers, bags & cases, gewgaws, 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. evenings and weekends.
Commercially printed copies (up to 24" x 30" of most photos seen here are available on high quality paper for framing.

The end of October
Occupy Columbia
World's hottest pepper. These are used industrially to make military mace and paint that will deter barnacles. My neighbor grows them and always invites me to take a bite. Fat chance ;-)
