Europe Bound!

In less than two weeks Heidi and I leave for an epic trip to Europe. And right now I think it's the only thing on both of our minds. We are so excited about our destinations. We're going to Ireland, Norway, Czech Republic, and Austria. I have a feeling we'll get quite an eclectic view of Europe this trip. We'll try to post picts and blog entries while we're there but not exactly sure how frequent that will be.

Right now I am getting ready for a crash course on my new camera. So expect a lot of great new photos when we get back.

Gallery Time

This weekend my Father-in-Law, Doug Hammer, is doing a gallery exhibition of his work. He has quite a body of work. He used to make his own  large format cameras, and do the whole dark room process at home on the side. And now with the digital revolution he's done quite a bit more, now not restricted to film. I definitely recommend you check out his site. 

Springtime in Death Valley

I finally had a chance to go through some of my photos from Death Valley and here are a few of the choice shots. I should have more after the weekend. To read more about the trip check out heidi's blog.

The shot above was taken on Artist Drive near the entrance, and can be seen in the Outdoor section of my selected photos.

Death Valley or Bust!

Next week around this time Heidi and I will be packing for our trip out to the desert to get away from it all and enjoy all the nice wildflowers. The plan is Death Valley right now after concerns that Joshua Tree might be very busy. This however is not a bad plan B since Death Valley is one of our favorite places to go. Lots of people think we're nuts going to place with "Death" in the name. But if they ever saw the place in person they would change their mind. So in about 2 weeks I should have new photos up on the site. Hopefully some with wildflowers.

New Work

Now that the site is finished I have been able to work on a few new pieces. Have a look, they're in the abstract section. There will be a few more soon as well. Just need a little more time. These two were taken on a trip up San Jacinto last summer. To see the rest of the abstract photos click here.
