August 20, 2020 Traveling with the Tamron 28-200mm RXD

When I reviewed the Tamron 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 RXD in June of 2020, I theorized that it might just be the best travel option available on Sony.  I put that to the test recently and traveled to Mont Tremblant, Quebec (one of my favorite spots), and used the A071 (28-200mm) almost exclusively on that trip.  I […] [Read more...]

June 3, 2017 In Praise of Excellence

In Praise of Excellence Don’t get me wrong; I do love to post-process images.  It is that second dimension of modern photography where you can take a good photo and make it great.  About four years ago I wrote a series of articles for Alien Skin Exposure’s blog on how to take an image from […] [Read more...]

January 14, 2017 Picturing Arizona: A Photo Gallery of the Southwest

November 25, 2016 Just Add Snow

What a difference a week can make!  We had been enjoying an unseasonably mild November, and just last Thursday  (November 17th) I was out for my “day off hike” (I try to get out into the woods and decompress on my day off).  Following a series of trails I arrived at a location where beavers […] [Read more...]

June 23, 2015 Capital Connections – (Ottawa, Canada)

Canada’s capital city of Ottawa is relatively unknown around the world when compared to more prominent Canadian cities like Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. Its relatively modest infrastructure makes it unlikely to be a destination for the Olympics or any such major international event in the near future, but a number of [Read more...]
