2017. Making Lemonade.

2017 was a tough nut. Here's my look back at a year with a few very special moments.

This year's workshop is in the books. Here is my take on a week in the San Juan Islands with some of my favorite people.

Changing Perspective

I've been distracted by my new flying cameras. It's a whole new world when you can place your camera anywhere!

Effin' Babies!

There are a lot of babies out there, and I'm not talking about the tiny human kind. In this post I ponder the need to listen to the complainers of the world.

Three Graces

There aren't very many pretty scenes on the Oregon Coast that I haven't photographed, and this past weekend I checked off another one. The Three Graces are a cluster of several (more than three) rocks just inside the mouth of Tillamook Bay. The rocks are right next to the highway on the outskirts of the little town of Garibaldi and I've driven by them oh so many times thinking, "I really need to stop here sometime." This past weekend I was on that part of the coast and had some time at sunset to grab the shot. I chose to use my drone (The DJI Mavic Pro 2) to capture the scene. When you have the ability to place your camera precisely where you want it, it makes composing unique shots of oft-shot locations easy as pie. This is a three-shot vertical panorama that I assembled and toned in Lightroom Classic, with a little bit of pixel bending In Luminar 3 to finish the deal.

This. So good.
