Damn hoodlums

Once again Joe and I went out shooting, and in an odd repeat of last year at a go kart track he got kicked out of some place. Actually we both did. Apparently people don’t take kindly to you photographing their construction site which has no markings, warnings or security. Who knew? I realize that if someone were up to no good there’d be a problem, but we weren’t exactly inconspicuous with headlights on our noggins and flashlights and flashes going off repeatedly. [...]

NJ Weekend

I had certainly hoped I might do some shooting while I was in NJ this past weekend. I did, just not as much as I would have liked. I find myself constantly over-critical and negative of most things I do shoot and this past weekend was no exception. I was really unimpressed by the place I went Saturday with my friends. We were in Dingman’s Ferry, PA and the weather did not cooperate. [...]

Rochester @ night

Last night I went down to the Ford St Bridge area to get mugged with Joe. We also took a few photos of the city. Dinner wasn’t sitting well with me and that’s all we wound up doing unfortunately. I decided to finally take a first stab at taking a panorama of Rochester and it came out ok but I don’t really like that particular vantage point for a pano after reviewing the stitched image. [...]

Add more pixels, please.

More pixels make the camera better, right? I’m getting dismayed by the fact that marketing has seem to overrun good common sense at the camera companies these days. Perfectly good cameras like the G9 are coming out with 12 megapixels now and that’s just stupid. That camera, in particular that sensor, shouldn’t need more than 6mp, in fact it would make the camera better. [...]

Perseid Meteor shower

It seems to be a recurring problem for me this summer. Every time there’s something I want to photograph the weather chooses to interrupt my plans. The 4th of July was a hazy mess, and the Perseid Meteor shower over the weekend was obscured by clouds. It looks like I’ll just head back up to the lake soon or down town or somewhere else and get some shooting in, maybe this weekend. [...]

bad weather

Having been in Cincinnati since Friday, it sure is disappointing to have it be so hot and humid. It’s enough that I don’t want to go out and shoot, and there’s not a whole lot to shoot inside that I really want to do either. Even if I went out to shoot, it’s been so hazy (even at night) that I won’t get the kind of results I’d like. Unless the weather changes significantly I may write off shooting for this trip entirely. [...]
