Here is a gallery of macro photography that I’ve been working on.  I don’t use a proper macro lens.  Instead, I use a macro adaptor as well as a cheap metal ring that allows me to mount my lenses on backwards.  (I know it sounds odd, but search Amazon.com for “reverse lens mount” and you’ll [...]

While exploring campus last night, I found that Sage Chapel was still open, even though it was somewhere between 9:00 and 9:30 PM.  I walked inside and after letting my eyes adjust to nearly compete darkness, I realized that no one else was around.  So, I did the logical thing and grabbed my camera, tripod, [...]

I just got back from finding a place to live in Ithaca, NY.  Apparently it was Ithaca Fest 2011. A brief description of the city from Wikipedia: The city of Ithaca, named for the Greek island of Ithaca, is a city in upstate New York and the county seat of Tompkins County, as well as [...]

I went back to Ithaca, NY a few days ago and took a few photos worth sharing of Cornell University

Here is a series of photographs that I took of Seattle, WA at night in late January 2011.  Most of the photos were taken at using a Sigma 50MM 1.4 lens on my Canon 5D Mark II.  The aerial photos were taken from the top floors of the Columbia Center.

Well, it snowed.  It snowed a lot.  We have gotten over 20 inches so far and it will not be stopping for a few more hours.  So, I grabbed my camera, Katie and went to take some photos of the Walker Sculpture garden in the snow!  Enjoy the photos and videos from this afternoon.

A series of photographs from around Minneapolis in the early evening.

This is a time lapse experiment that I have been tinkering with for the last month.  I wanted to try a new work flow based around raw images instead of JPEG images.  Every frame was captured as a raw image and imported in to an Aperture 3 library.  From there, I batch processed the images [...]

Here is a high resolution panoramic view of a beach we visited in Michigan. It isn’t a great photo technically, but it is fun to scroll around so I decided to post it. 72 Megapixel Michigan Beach

I’ve been experimenting with ways to take the best time lapse using the Canon 5d Mark II and I’ve come up with two distinct methods that are worth sharing.  The first method involves shooting normal video and speeding it up while the second involves a more traditional approach of shooting frames and combining them to [...]
