Capturing Photos in the Dark
What about shooting photography in the dark? Now that we are clearly off Daylight Savings Time we have plenty of opportunities to shoot in the dark. I’ve talked about this a few times on my site in the past, most recently I’ve updated my Low Light Portfolio for some night photography examples, but photography in…

How to Find the Best Photographic Vantage Point
Isn’t this an amazing time to be interested in photography. Whether you’re a fan of the hype or not, the announcements of new tech are almost never ending. This week Apple announced the iPhone 7 Plus. With this Apple showed off the first dual camera on an Apple smartphone. This was something I had been…

Photos of the 4th of July Fireworks in Auburn from AUO
Each year we have come into Auburn to watch the fireworks, but this year we changed locations to the new Auburn University Municipal Airport (AUO) terminal building, and it was a fantastic spot. The airport ended up being a nice quiet spot, for the most part, and we didn’t have any of the chaos around…

Not One is Missing Among 10 Billion Trillion of Them :: Isaiah 40:26
I have been walking, and sometimes running, through the book of Isaiah over the last week or two. There are so many incredible passages in Isaiah, but this morning I came across something that made me stop, it was just one phrase, just four words, “not one is missing” (Isaiah 40.26.d). This passage, in context…

Good Friday Confessions at the Cross :: Photos
Last night was our Good Friday service, one that contained a combination of worship and examining confession at the foot of the cross. It’s hard to put into words what that means, and Brian said it best when he told everyone that the cross speaks for itself, and it does. There really aren’t words that…

Christmas Eve, Where Christ Lights Up the Darkness
It was a wonderful night at Cornerstone tonight celebrating the coming birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. I always love the candles, it is such a reminder that Christ is the one who brought light into the darkness of this world, and walked among us as well. Merry Christmas everyone.

The Friday Night Lights Live Album Recording :: Friday Feet
Today’s Friday Feet comes from a live album recording here at Cornerstone Church in Auburn. I will probably post a few more photos of the shoot tomorrow but for now, here is a smattering of feet and music from the night. The live recording took place over two nights, last night and tonight, and was…

Friday Night Auburn Lights Photo at Jordan-Hare Stadium :: Friday Feet
It’s the Friday night before the first Auburn football game and it’s become sort of a tradition with Deborah and I to walk around downtown and eat dinner while we watch all the “out of towners” stroll in. Last year it was Hamilton’s on Magnolia, this year it ended up being a very crowded Mellow…

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…

Photos of the 4th of July Fireworks in Auburn
Yes, I know I’m a little late with the fireworks pics but oh well. The fireworks in Auburn were good as always, the only thing that just kills me every year is they don’t go high enough in the sky to get up over the power lines, and I have tried different locations every year.…

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…

A Midnight Summer’s Dream in the Night Sky
Ok, well it’s not Shakespeare but it is just about that time of year when the days are really long and the nights are clear and hot. Sometimes it’s hard to find new and fresh images when your routine seems to stay the same, but there is always a lot more to creation than meets…

Late Evening Thunderstorm and Some Lightning Photos
Last night just around midnight we finally had a thunderstorm go through our property. Feels like the first one that has come across our house this year, but it brought some nice lightning with it, for a very short time period. I took these shots right out my office window. I rendered the one image…

The Dallas Skyline at Night on Our Arrival
So we made it to Dallas, just a quick 12-13 hour drive and we arrived. The trip was pleasantly uneventful and after dinner I was thrilled our hosts wanted to stop at their favorite skyline view so I could take some photos. I love photographing traffic at night, it has a unique motion all it’s…

The North Star and Long Exposure Star Trails
If you have been following the progress of our tree and tree swing, it now has just about no leaves on it at all, so last night I decided to take advantage of the very dark night out here and do a long exposure of the tree showing the North Star. This shot was a…

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…
