PHOTO.GP FAQ: Keywording Workflow for Pros
UPDATE: This post has been updated over on the PhotoGP website. Frequently Asked Question: How do you keyword so many images on a race weekend? When someone emails with this question, I know that person has really been there, not just for the enjoyment of shooting the cars or bikes on track, but for the […]
Read MoreA Star On Top
For the first time in quite a while this photographer actually make some photographs last night. For months now, work for me has been about producing the MotoMatters calendar and our “Fast Things” t-shirt, printing landscape images for display in one of the Northstar at Tahoe shops, and filling orders for the Rossi glowing brakes […]
Read MoreFrom Salt Lake to Mono Lake
Going back in time a bit, here is a post I wrote as we arrived in Yosemite on June 7th. Trading Armco and asphalt and granite and waterfalls, I’ve moved from the racetrack to Yosemite for the week. The late summer and recent snows mean that the waterfalls in the valley should be in full […]

These spring snow storms I mentioned last time can come in pretty quickly. On Saturday evening I was on the east shore of Lake Tahoe hoping for something amazing to photograph and was pleased, at first, to see a snow storm coming down over the mountains and heading right for me.

These rocks are by the old Sutro Baths in San Francisco, and I don’t think anything has a better spot to watch the SF sunsets than they do. Info: Made with a Nikon D700 Digital SLR Camera, Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8G ED AF-S Nikkor Wide Angle Zoom Lens, on a Manfrotto 055XPROB Pro Tripod with a […]
Read MoreTahoe Regional Planning Agency at Work
Several aspects of doing work on our place in Kings Beach have seemed unnecessarily complicated when it comes to what we can and can’t do on the property according to the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency. There are strict limits on moving soil, coverage of the land itself, runoff, etc etc. But after this last trip […]
Read MoreMore Real Life Drobo
Here’s another bit of shared learning for my fellow Drobo users: Running out of space on my Drobo the other day, I decided to replace a 500GB drive with a 1TB drive (cheap at Fry’s, a Hitatchi 7200RPM 32MB Sata drive for less than $70, which reminded me how the service bureau I worked at […]
