I still have an inner child, I think that we all do. Only i dont really play with toys I just shoot them. I take a pick of a few of my kids toys and I usually shoot smurfing around but the smurfs were hiding and did not want to play today so I took a Monster High doll and a Sonics Drive inn...

I love to go walking and you know it is not exercise if you are sporting a camera. The day started out gorgeous and I almost missed it. I woke up late and rushed out of bed when I see the sun thinking I totally overslept, only to find it was 8:30 Am whew, there is still time. Time is all I gave...

A short version of the St. Patricks day Parade through the lens of my new toy. What a great way to get to know the new camera and learn what not to do. I was missing my D5100 just a little at first then I found out how to mess with the dials with out going to far into menu for certain settings...

While waiting for my daughter to wrap up her service project with her youth group I took my youngest for a March walk. Teaching her to see things differently in the city. That there are so many unseen beautiful things, the ones you open the focus of your eyes to really look deep and see them...

Every year I visit one place and I visit often. I grew up here and sadly it has changed a bit from what I remember but all for the good. I was 8 or 9 and we spent every weekend as a family wondering around this little park tubing and picnicking, man those were the days. I don't remember much of...

After a couple months of thinking I must have got kicked off for not participating I remembered something. My pass word and why, it's a funny funny thing. I tried so hard to remember it and I entered every combo but one and wallah there it is my Nikonites page just as I had left it. Is it crazy...

Went out to the west desert in Utah for a little sky action. The galaxy is an amazing thing it was so beautiful. I'm am so happy the weather cooperated with us. I bumped the focus on a couple of the shots but I think these are the best of them all. not at all bad for what the conditions were...

The day started out perfect, cool and calm day for a hike in Utah's Wasatch range. All was beautiful until the scary clouds came. The hike up to Twin Lakes was absolutely gorgeous. I thought I was gonna pass out by the time we reached the top. I don't know what was more tiring the hike or the...

Life has been so busy these days I miss waking up thinking it’s almost Friday, which mean shooting day is Saturday. Not lately, I recently became a warehouse manager and although it is an amazing place to be I miss my camera and my outings. I get so busy during the week all I want to do is sit...

I was just wondering how you go about posing children of clients, do you allow the parents to help when posing, ask the parents to do the posing for you or do you do all the posing of the body hands or legs feet ect? The reason I ask is in one of my books from school says that you should advise...

Small rant sorry. I have taken two courses in photography through the N.Y.I.P, the fundamentals and the pro course, not to become a professional photographer but to become better at what I love as a hobby. To me it is a little bothersome that people can not just enjoy what they love with out a...

Today started out Rainy and cloudy, I wasn't sure if we would make it to the lake or not, I decided however that overcast is the best time to at least try. I was hoping for much more color but it is still really early. Silver Lake is located on the same lot as Brighton Ski resort here in Utah...

I was just wondering if anyone out there has attempted star shooting with the D5000 and what lens you used. I attempted this after reading an article in Digital Camera Magazine. I used some of the tips they suggest as far as simple camera settings (wide open AV of f4 and an ISO of 800-1600) I...
