Supermoon Rising, Halley’s Falling

May 5, 2012

0

The ‘supermoon’ is blazing the horizon tonight with its bigger and brighter moonshine. [Maybe that's why the boys were extra feisty today?!] During a quick bike ride to the corner store for weekend supplies, I saw the moon rising over the Junction cemetery. I booked-it home to grab my SLR and tripod, and took a […]

April 19, 2012

This one, as a gear, gadget and camera nerd, was impossible to pass up. The bait, on my Twitter feed, was taken immediately: “@c5dnews: Article: NAB 2012: $900 Quad Copter for GoPro sized cameras.” A $900 camera helicopter? Yes, please. Looking to blow a few hundred of your tax return? Here’s an approved option. This […]

Aurora Borealis above Fairbanks, Alaska

April 13, 2012

0

After spending just short of a week in Fairbanks, Alaska, I’m back home reflecting upon some great memories and amazing images. In between red-eye naps and delayed flights, after two back-to-back sleepless northern lights nights, I’m borderline kooky. On assignment, I traveled to meet the GoPro production team to learn more about a scientific partnership […]

President Obama’s Touch-Down in Burlington, Vermont

March 30, 2012

4

So the story goes… I needed to run some errands during lunch break, and I thought I’d try to cross paths with Mr. President. I’d say it worked, indirectly. Slipping around the back side of the airport, I had hopes to catch Air Force One Two arriving from the southeast. With an iconic Vermont landmark […]

Making the interwebs rounds –as these should– are recent tilt-shift photographs by Tim McKenna. They’re amazing, and certainly one of the better examples and uses for the tilt-shift practice. For more about tilt-shift photography in the French Polynesia, visit McKenna’s site. Looking for some tilt-shift gear, check out B&H. About tilt-shift photography (and a sweet […]

Reverse Island Fever Hangover, Mon

December 7, 2011

2

As the headline suggests, I’m currently a bit hungover. Not as a result of heavy imbibing, not this time –although there was plenty of revelry involved to cause the pain I’m experiencing. The diagnosis: Reverse Island Fever. Typical island fever is described as “the realization that you are stuck on which ever island you are […]

‘Natural Playground’ Viewer’s Choice Winning Photo

November 23, 2011

0

It’s safe to say that when Nenad Saljic captured this image of cavers dropping into the mouth of Cave Mamet, he was making the most of his natural surroundings. It also helps that he’s an active caver and speleophotographer, a certified caving instructor and mountain rescuer, and has a Ph.D. in Economics. The latter of […]

Time-Lapse Lust: Aurora, Mountain, Arctic Light, Water

November 10, 2011

Time-lapse cinematography is an ever-impressive technique for documenting a particularly long duration of passing time. The discipline is mostly used for capturing natural and urban landscapes, construction, and the growing or dying life. For Oslo, Norway-based photographer Terje Sorgjerd, and his photo suite TSO Photography, his time-lapse devotion has led him towards chasing natural phenomenons. His […]

Follow along with Jeff Curtes in “The Big Picture” as he walks you through Burton’s latest heli shoot from New Zealand, titled “Snow Porn,” featuring riders Kazuhiro Kokubo, […]

A Photograph, or a Painting?

Tinted orange by the morning sun, a soaring dune is the backdrop for the hulks of camel thorn trees in Namib-Naukluft Park. Photograph by Frans Lanting, National Geographic. Featured as the May 17, 2011 ‘Photo of the Day’ at Photography.NationalGeographic.com, this image has caused quite a stir –frankly, because it looks altered or enhanced. Well, it’s not. […]
