Two Medicine Lake in Glacier National Park isn’t the most traveled to location, but it is one of the most beautiful.  The serene nature of the lake is fleeting as many kayakers and small boat operators like to enjoy it. I caught this photo just before a boat disrupted the stillness of the water. I was idealistically hoping that this moment would last forever, but change in nature and by man is constant. [tags]L

The answer… Submit a DVD full of your photos to the Library of Congress through the U.S. Postal Service. Today I received a letter from the United States Copyright Office that a relatively recent copyright filing could not be processed because the U.S. Postal Service irradiated my U.S. Priority Mail envelope containing a letter and DVD to the point of oblivion.  I understand the need be security conscious after

Glacier National Park never ceases to amaze even the most seasoned landscape photographers. The light show put on my Mother Nature on this particular morning was nothing short of breathtaking. The beauty of the rugged landscape here is so immense I felt compelled to take a series of panoramic photos. This particular panoramic was made from (3) three Canon 1Ds Mark III photos using a 24mm TS lens. While taking this ph

The advent of the app store has opened a large number of applications for niche markets and one of the most popular markets that developers have been targeting has been photography. The number of photography applications for the iPhone pales in comparison to the number of games that have been released, but what the numbers don’t reveal is the high percentage of quality apps versus junk available to photographer

The most amazing aspect of today’s transforming photography world is that it is so easy to find inspiration. The digitization of photography has placed inspiration a Google search away or even a Tweet away. While I certainly don’t have time to list a 1,000 points of inspiration I will share with you a few that I recommend checking out and I’d like to invite you to fill out the other 9,997 whether st

I recently photographed my elusive “white whale” photo subject, a fog enveloped Golden Gate Bridge at sunrise.  You might expect I’d be happy with capturing dozens of photos of this amazing phenomenon, but I’m eager to photograph it again to get a different take on it. I should clarify I am very satisfied with the photos captured including the one shown below, but I have an incredibly strong d
