Understanding Exposure is More than Just Point and Shoot
I thought I would do a little photography 101 slash book review for this Saturday’s post. Only one more week before Auburn opens the 2011 football season so today is sort of the last “free” day before the fall goes into full swing, so to speak. The changes in photography over the last 10-15 years…

Creation Proclaims the Milky Way Galaxy on the Summer Solstice
As I mentioned in my blog post last night we were going to try to get some shots of the Milky Way Galaxy, and these above are what I ended up with last night. There are so many different aspects of creation but this one always blows my mind. I love how Paul puts it…

Happy Birthday Deborah and Another Year to Celebrate
Saturday was Deborah’s birthday, and yes, she was born on Saturday the 14th (she has enjoyed pointing out to me this year it is the same exact day as it was 45 years ago). This was a special birthday for her, since she loves markers in years, 45 years was a small milestone for her,…

Classic Lamp and the Brick Wall
The photo of the day today is one I call a classic but it is really just because I like to take photos of lighting in hotel rooms, especially when they are accompanied by the classic exposed brick wall. Similar to this shot in Colorado, but with no ambient light here.

Early Sunday Morning Light at Cornerstone Church
The photo of the day today is another iPhone camera shot in between services at Cornerstone Church in Auburn. The fall (although it is still hot) makes for some beautiful color even without the leaves.

High Contrast Lighting with iPhone 4 Camera and a Lamp
Something a little different for the photo of the day, this was another shot I took with my iPhone camera. The sticker on the light at the restaurant just caught my attention. Still pretty impressed by the camera sensor on this phone for this type of exposure.

HDR Photos on the iPhone iOS 4.1 Camera :: Review
One of the best updates to iOS 4.1, to me, was the ability to automatically take and merge HDR photos right on the iPhone. For those unfamiliar with HDR (High Dynamic Range) photography, this is a relatively new area in photography that takes multiple images, which are beyond the tonal stop range of most digital…

People are not Called to Misssions
That was the statement our friend Biscuet (he also talked about this great story here) made in his message this morning, no one is actually “called to missions”. Although this truth rarely seems to be stated in the American church, it is stated in scripture throughout the Bible but most recognizably in the last verse…

How To Make a Milk Carton Flash Diffuser Video
This past weekend Deb and I went to Callaway Gardens in Pine Mountain Georgia to go for a bike ride and do a little photo and video shooting at the Butterfly Day Center (see my Callaway Gardens Butterflies // Friday Feet). Generally when you are shooting butterflies in an enclosed area you will need some…

Light Painting in the Image of the Calvary Cross
I should have my next edition business cards in the mail any day now. I usually print them in very small packs of 100 at a time, probably because I can never make up my mind what I want to show on my card. This time I went with something a little different. This is…

Light Painting with Sparklers and Some Low Light Photography
I love expanding my photographic abilities and learning new ways to be creative, it just isn’t as easy as it sounds some time. Light painting photography seems to be all the rage now but it is something I tried when I shot my first photos of fireworks back in 1997. It just looked so neat…

Early Morning Light Photography in the Hotel
Simple photography elements are some of my most favorite. I took this while I was waiting for Deb to get ready in the hotel room.

Do it Yourself Low Light Fireworks Photography
Low light photography is probably one of my favorite genres or areas of photography. It has so many possibilities and you can really get something special that the eye doesn’t always notice. One easy way to try out low light photography is with the 4th of July holiday (for those here in the U.S) or…

Low Light Photography with a Worship Band and Some Great Music
I did a short photo shoot of the Cornerstone worship band this past Wednesday. I am still gathering and editing the images but here are a few below from the shoot. Low light photography is one of my favorites when you can get some good directional light concentrated on the subjects. Here, it is a…

Star Trails Over the House in a Nature Kind of Day
If you are new to my blog, welcome, glad you came by. I usually do a wrap up of the day, called my daily post, and this is it. Not always the most exciting post in the world, but sometimes, days are just normal days. I try to keep up with a quick daily post…
