Alaska Photography and Photo Tours: Specializing in Wild Lands & Wild Life
The world’s moving so fast, the man who says it can’t be done is interrupted by someone doing it. – Elbert Hubbard 2010 will be the 6th straight year that I’ve been shooting solely in Alaska. In truth, it feels as if I’ve just arrived. Everything is still new and fresh to me, even though [...]
This is a good time to remind you of my upcoming photo workshop/adventour in June. Seats are limited, but we have a few spots open at this time. Please click HERE to read more about this one of a kind experience. Of course, if you have any questions, please contact me at any time. I [...]
This is the workshop I’ve been subtly hinting about for a while now. I’m very excited to be hosting this workshop along with my good friend Gary Gullett. Gary is the owner and founder of Chicago Photo Safaris, and we met over 1 year ago while photographing the wild waters wildlife of Kenai Fjords National [...]
These are shots from early August, and my “One-on-One Guided Tour” with my client Matthew. Did some more work on those images and found a few more I wanted to put up for display and critique. The first is a classic head profile shot, the second a more unorthodox over the shoulder view – what [...]
I like odd angles. I’m an odd person. It just fits with my personality. The entire Labor Day “long weekend” fall color tour was shot in the company of two great photographers, and as I mentioned in an earlier post, they pushed me to take my photography to the next level. If you want to [...]
Here are a few more shots from my trip last week. Remember to get out and shoot. Take care and stay tuned.
Yep, I did it. I had one of those “Oh… I get it” moments, a realization… Eureka! If I examine it more thoroughly, it really wasn’t a “moment of discovery” it is a culmination of multiple moments. I nearly typed multi-ments, QUICK someone call Websters – I conjugated an adjective with a noun into a [...]
Here are another pair of images from the brown bears on the Katmai Coast. The reception for these b&w versions has been great, and I’ve got to say – I’m hooked. For me, b&w puts more stress on texture and composition. You also have a little more flexibility with b&w. All of these images were [...]
Here I go, “doing the twist”… oh wait. No one wants to see that. Here are two more images I’ve been working on from Katmai. The first was from a staring contest that I admittedly lost. The second is more of a pondering pose. The bear seems to be pondering, “are these things sharp enough?” [...]
I’m not a black and white photographer, per se. Truth be told, I’ve always loved color – it’s how I see things. I seem to have completely skipped the b&w photography and darkroom phase in my photographic “formative” years. Although, come to think of it, every year should be a “formative” year as a photographer. [...]
Katmai” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” allowfullscreen=”true” width=”560″ height=”340″> Brown Bears Saturday was an amazing day. Tim and I drove to Homer the night before, arriving in the early hours of the morning. At 8:15 we met our guides & fellow travelers at the float plane dock of Emerald Air Service, on Beluga Lake. I’ve travelled with Ken and [...]
