    New Guy at Newborn

    My cousin recently had their first baby, and I had the great privilege of doing my first newborn shoot with them. I did as much planning and prep work as I could beforehand, but nothing can actually prepare you for what really goes on. Spent north of 4 hours in their home with the heat cranked...

    Staff Headshots - Exposure and Post Processing Feedback Needed

    Hey everybody. I'd like to ask you all to take a minute to review a couple of the headshot that I did this week for a local Orthodontics office. I have been having fits with Lightroom color and exposure being completely different when viewed on other systems -vs- how it appears on my Macbook...

    Dave's Faves for 2017 ~

    The time has come to suck it up and make time to get around here more often. Miss the folks and all that other jazz. I'll be throwing all kinds of random goodies in here at least once a week. Please chime in with your $.02 of CC and, as always, pats on the back are welcome. LoL. 😎

    Wedding Shoot

    Took the plunge recently and partnered up with a local photographer for some wedding shoots. He's a great guy (with the exception of his Canon affliction) and has been shooting weddings on his own for a couple years now. We've decided to tag team several upcoming events. Great experience and...

    Creative portrait editing help

    Here's the recent shot I took of my daughter to practice a concept I want to use in an upcoming shoot. Not sure which edit below that I like the best ... or if I need to go at it again from raw. Any thoughts?

    dave's 2016 random goodness thread

    Figured I should get back in here and at least start myself a little 2016 thread. Won't be attempting any 365 this year, but should be able to post up some random goodness once in a while. Got out and shot for a couple hours today for the first time in a while. Felt good. Let's start...

    A Blue Dasher Dragonfly Day -

    Went out to the lake at lunch to get away for a few and hopefully catch a shot or two. Happened upon two Blue Dasher dragonflies that were more than willing to entertain me for a few minutes. Managed to catch a few decent shots, both with and without onboard flash.

    Hey all. Looking for the Spyderlenscal setup to do some lens calibrations. Anybody have one they've used and could part with? Or even loan out for a couple weeks? Just trying not to spend the $65 on a new one if I don't have to. Thanks.

    Sandy Beaches, Wild Animals, Happy Kids, and other assorted Perdido Key shots 2015

    Made it down to Perdido Key, FL this afternoon. Figured I'd start a little thread to share some of my various shots from this week. It'll range from landscape to wildlife to family portraits, and lots of stuff in between. I'm really looking forward to comparing my shots this year to last...

    Any Gulf Coast Nikonites?

    Hey all. I'm heading to Perdido Key next week sand was wondering if there are any fellow Nikonites in that vicinity. Would love to find some great places to shoot the local birds and other wildlife; and being able to do that with somebody from here would make it even better. If nothing...

    Tokina AT-X SD AF 100-300mm F/4 - Review and Pics

    I recently decided to pick up another lens sort of on a whim. It was meant to be somewhat of a replacement/substitution for my aging Nikon 80-200 f/2.8 AF-D. Not that the 80-200 was dying, but it certainly is starting to show it's age and has a few more lens defects than I ultimately want...

    Hate being absent!!

    Just wanted to take a sec to throw out my dismay and frustration with not being able to hang out here hardly at all over the last few weeks. It's been a chore just to make time to keep my 365 going, much less catch up on threads and chat with you all. I should be wrapping up a huge work...

    Post Your Water Droplets

    With the weather turning to crap on us over the last week or so, I was looking for something to shoot for my 365 a few days ago. I had come across a video of a remarkable group of water droplet photos and thought I would give it a go. I had taken a few droplet shots before, but more in an...
