Recently I’ve been editing some photos from my various trips out west. Some other’s show up in the USA post (Post Here), but I wanted to feature a few new ones. Over the course of number of trips to AZ, UT, and CO, I’ve amassed a few thousand images, form the Grand Canyon, to Canyonlands, […]

This weekend’s project was taking some photos for an online car add. It’s incredibly common to shop for cars online these days, and professional photos can go a long way in making an ad look more enticing. Too many ads have cell-phone-shot, poor pictures with bad staging, lighting, and everything else. It cheapens an otherwise […]

Just got back from an amazing week in Morocco. After spending a few days in Marrakesh we drove 15 hours out over the Atlas Mountains and into the Sahara. Our destination was Erg Chicaga, about 30 km from the Algerian border (the middle of no where), at the amazing Erg Chicaga Luxury Desert Camp (glamping […]

The Foundataion a dedicated to preserving Aviation history and maintains a fantastic collection of WW2 vehicles , and some very impressive aircraft. They are definitely worth a visit if you are in MA, as their collection is one of the best […]

Great News, as TopGear says (used to say)! I am now a member of the International Society of Aviation Photographers, or the ISAP. As a hot air balloon owner/pilot and photographer, I love to take pictures of, and from all sorts of aircraft. I hope to do a air to air photo shoot of some […]

This last week I spent some time on the beautiful island of Antigua! While this was more of a true vacation than a photography trip- I still brought along the D800 just in case there was some good shooting to do. On the final evening we went up to Shirley Heights- a hilltop overlooking the […]

Yeah, everyone takes this picture, you have to if you are in the area. Stopping by Horseshoe Bend, just outside of Page, AZ, is very easy to do, and anyone can walk right up to the canyon edge. Surprisingly, the bend is unlike many other easy to access US park areas with huge cliffs- here, you […]

This is going to be a multipurpose post- showing off a newly finished shot, a before and after comparison, some tips on how it was taken, and also some comments on a fantastic editing technique- Luminosity Masking! First, and most obviously, the photo up top is a new work, taken a few weeks ago in […]

Part 3 will focus on some shooting tips, and show off some of the finished shots flying with NYonAir flight. (For flight videos, see here, and for some tips on gear see here). My Instagram with even more photos is here: instagram I’ve shot from helicopters before- so I had an idea of what to expect going […]

Part 2 will focus on the planning I did and the gear I took on my recent NYonAir flight.(For NYonAir flight videos see here, and some additional background, see here). Overall we flew about 35 miles- have a look at the map of the route (runkeeper, sorry, should have used a ballooning app). Key Takeaways– […]

Over the last few years I have flow on a few photography flights over New York City with FlyNYON / NYonAir (https://flynyon.com/). They are a company the specializes in NYC related aerial content, like stock photography and video, as well as other types of helicopter related entertainment production. For my first flight, which I describe in […]

Yes this is a week late, pretend it is right before Xmas so this is more relevant… In December 2013 I was travelling in India and Dubai. While in the UAE I stayed at the amazing Mina A’Salam resort- part of the Jumeirah complex (home to the Burj Al Arab). Aside from these hotels being […]

The Taj Mahal Palace hotel sits prominently on the Mumbai waterfront. This decidedly Imperial and stately hotel sits overlooking the Gateway of India, also where the last British troops left the country signaling India’s independence. The hotel has been in the news for both famous stays (just about any vising head of state in the […]

This post is a special one. A few years ago Alan Taylor, curator of The Atlantic’s fantastic “In Focus” photo blog, did a gallery of photos of the week leading up to 9/11/2001. The full gallery is here and it’s worth a look: 9/11 – The Week Before At the bottom of Talyor’s post you will see some pictures […]

Today marks the 77th birthday of the Golden Gate Bridge. While I have a few favorite pictures of the bridge itself (see the post on where to take the best shots here), I want to use this post to talk about where the bridge was really born: Bethlehem, PA. Bethlehem Steel provided the steel for […]

My brother and I started taking/processing HDR photography in 2008. At that time the editing technology was in its infancy, and digital DSLRs were only just starting to catch on. One of our initial inspirations was the (really really talented) Trey Ratcliff of StuckInCustoms.com – amazing photographs and even more amazing travel destinations. Now that […]

Currently… somewhere thousands of miles off the south west coast of Australia, is the crashed/missing/magically vanished Malaysia Air flight 370. Now that the search area is somewhat more narrowed down, the hunt for the “black box” flight recorders is on. Also, somewhere off the SW coast of Australia is the ADV Ocean Shield…. looking for […]

You have already seen this image. You, and lots of other people. It is estimated that this is the most viewed photograph ever taken. Further, I would guess that in some places, this is the most recognizable image – computers with windows can be much more common in some areas than knowledge any of the […]

In 1970-71 Ferrari wanted a new GT car to take advantage of updated FIA racing rules governing engine displacement. Ferrari had been racing the 312 in LeMans and other races, but with Porsche’s new 917 it was out gunned. While the 917 used a 4.5L to start, Ferrari designed a brand new 5L V12 for […]

Right after I purchased the D800 I needed the other part of the package: a lens. After much deliberation, research, reading, and hemming and hawing, I finally decided on the 24-120 f4 as a lens. Selecting a lens is about the only thing more complex than picking a camera body. There are tomes of articles […]

During the ridiculously cold weather over the last few weeks, Niagara falls has been covered a HUGE amount of ice. While the falls never completely freeze, the spray and famous mist generates a lot extra of ice and snow. While it is misleadingly titled (forgive them, they are British), the Daily Mail has a post […]

Yesterday Buzzfeed.com posted a less than enlightening article: “26 Remarkable Places for Solo Travel.” (Article here) While the places listed might be, the only thing that made the article itself remarkable, was how embarrassingly bad it was. Now I’m not saying that the author should be embarrassed to put her name to it (maybe…), I’m […]

May of 2009 was my first trip to Turkey. I have since been back and I am still amazed by this country. In ’09 I spent two weeks traveling from the capitol, Ankara, to Cappadoica, and finally to Istanbul with a group of college friends. In the middle of the country sits the region of […]

While not my favorite shot of the amazing photography opportunity that is the Golden Gate Bridge, I want to use this to talk about the best locations for shooting this landmark. Doing some homework before you head out to take pictures is just as important as the equipment, shooting skill, and post processing. As with […]

Breakfast of Champions! About 45 minutes north of Brussels, Belgium, is the country’s second most populous city of Antwerp. Antwerp does have an interesting history – its name comes from a myth about a giant, and it was briefly ruled by the Spanish – interesting place, but I’m here to talk about the food! Similar […]
