Library of Congress, Washington, DC, ISO 800, 1/60 sec at f/2.8. Canon EF 15mm fisheye lens with Canon EOS 5D Mark II camera I saw an ad in Rangefinder Magazine yesterday for the Steadepod, a sort of monopod/tripod replacement. It’s basically a retractable stainless steel cable – you put the base of the cable under [...] Alas, this is our last morning in Utah before heading home to Washington, DC, so we definitely had to get up for the sunrise. Of all the places we’ve seen around Moab, I must say that Turret Arch by the North and South Windows is my hands down favorite. It’s where we started on Day [...] I was playing around with OnOne Plug-In Suite 5 on my Utah Parks Road Trip Day 12 photo of Landscape Arch in Arches National Park, Utah. Check out this look. It’s called “Day for Night.” I like it… To download a pdf on buying fine art photography, click here. Landscape Arch, Arches National Park, Utah We’re exshausted, having spent the afternoon on a wild goose – or should I say wild arch – chase through the Moab wilderness. We were searching for that most mystical of arches, Tukuhnikivats, the unpronouncable. No one we asked had ever heard of it, not the park rangers at Arches National Park nor the woman who [...] Transitions Abroad has published another one of my photo stories, this one of my late 2008 trip par hasard through Dakar, Senegal, which ended up being my best trip in 10 years!

But still, this is the day that I’ll never forget. The day my Yaktrax fell into the abyss. The day I was stuck way out in the funnel. The day I was too paralyzed to move forward, too petrified to move back. Like always, it all started out in an [...] Last Tuesday, a 7.0 magnitude earthquake devastated the country of Haiti. The country’s worst earthquake in 200 years, as many as 200,000 people may have been killed, with survivors still buried beneath the rubble. I am involved in the Haiti relief effort through the American non-profit organization, Population Services International, which has an office of 100 staff [...] Today was a hell of a day – we hit two national parks and two state parks. First, we got up for the sunrise at Capitol Reef National Park. We were told that Notom Road, which runs north-south on the other side of the rocks of Capitol Reef, is a good place to catch the [...] Photo of a tree at the top of Capitol Gorge, Capitol Reef National Park, Utah So, if you were wondering why I dropped off the face of my blog in the middle of my Utah Parks Road Trip, to tell you the truth, I didn’t realize how tired I would be at the end of [...] Transitions Abroad has just published my photo story from my summer trip to Tunisia. This is the second story of mine that they’ve published. Tunisia. Before the five days I spent wandering this North African country, I envisioned Tunisia as a land of sun, sea, and sand.
