Photo equipment for those interested in geeking out on the technical side
A lot of people ask me what type of equipment I use. Though I don't find that the specifics of equipment matters all that much as all of the equipment is really good these days, thought I'd start a blog post of shots and descriptions that may help out those just getting started in photography.
This is the setup for the impressions series to create dreamlike light painted images with no photoshop! Images straight out of the camera with filters and intentional camera movement.
Sample of the "Impressions Series" Check out the whole collection here:
Scuba gear for underwater shots...I use the Ikelite system for Canon 5dMkii with a 17-40L lens, and 100mm macro.
Preliminary scan of 120 roll of Velvia 50 on Epson V70
Film Camera: The Fuji G 6x17 large format panoramic camera with Fuji Velvia 50. Can only take 4 photos at a time with this beast. I rarely use this film camera any more due to the high expense of processing and hard to find film. I used it mostly for compositions with moving objects where stitching can be difficult
Tripod: Induro 413. I love this thing, solid and even better, extends to 76". (I'm 6'5" and it helps)

A gift from the past...New print release!
Was just going through some of my older files to get a large print made for a client of "Fairy Lake" from 2006. While digging through the files, I found a little Christmas present to myself....a hidden folder of some images I had completely forgot about! It included this panorama of one of my favorite places in the Northern Bridgers, the "Flathead Pass Ranger Station".
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!!!

Earlier this summer I did one last book reading and signing at the Spokane Public Library with Shann to promote our collaborative award winning book "Montana Panoramic - Transparent in the Backlight". Thank you to all those who came out!
From that event, Shann and I both signed 14 books to offer as fund raising donations and for our best supporters. I now have 8 of those double signed books available for purchase now until out of stock.
