I have a wedding coming up that I have been elected to shoot. It is my son's second wedding and the photography in the first one was a true disaster so he informed me that I was going to shoot this one so he knew it would be done right. (I hope he is right) Been looking at light and how to set...

We often talk about how many Nikon cameras we see vs that other brand. While in Utah and Arizona on vacation I paid attention to the cameras I saw. Nikon was probably 3 to 1 over the other brands combined. Sony and canon were pretty much tied. Of course the phones took top numbers among all...

This was a quick stop on the way to Moab after we left Zion National Park. Red Canyon in just a stop alongside the road going into Bryce. Bryce would be a great stop if you are into hiking since it is more visible from inside instead of from above. Also scale is hard to comprehend from the...

Blue Screen of Death - I was running Windows 10 on my laptop and a couple of weeks ago I started getting odd things on my computer. Chrome started crashing and so I switched back to firefox and it would crash also. Then I started getting the dreaded BSOD and the computer would give me the blue...

Went on a diet for the first time yesterday. We will see how it goes. Recent doctor/lab reports show that my blood sugar and triglycerides are high. On some serious meds that screw up my liver and others that screw up my kidneys. Loosing weight would help both of those organs so that they could...
