52 Week Project: Week 17

Went out one day a few weeks ago to hang out in downtown Anoka, MN with a buddy to shoot whatever we could find. This tunnel/steps combination caught my eye and ended up as one of my favorites of the day. I originally was going to go B&W but ended up using the Punch preset [...]

52 Week Project: Week 16

I took in my first game at Target Field last Thursday and it is a rather impressive baseball stadium. My allegiance will always be for the Brewers but I do cheer for the Twins since they are in the American League and it doesn’t interfere with the Brew Crew (except when they play each other [...]

52 Week Project: Week 15

This American flag is part of the Veterans Memorial Park located in Belle Plaine, MN. I really wanted a picture of the UH-1H Iroquois “Huey” helicopter but couldn’t get a good angle for the shot. Not wanting to leave this hallowed place empty handed, I looked around and saw the wind whipping the flags around. [...]

52 Week Project: Week 6

The combination of the moon and the water tower behind the trees was at least semi-interesting. Exposure: 1/1250 sec, Aperture: [...]

52 Week Project: Week 5

During our BWCA trip last year we had stayed at Temperance River State Park on the first night. I got up early and took a few pictures of the sunrise looking out over Lake Superior. It was very awe inspiring to say the least. Exposure: 1/800 sec, Aperture: f/11.0, Focal Length: 28mm, ISO 200

52 Week Project: Week 1: Seven Falls

As part of my 2010 goals, I’m committing myself to posting a minimum of one picture a week. I’m not going to throw up a picture just to ensure I have a post up but rather display what I think are my better images in order to garner feedback. I look at too many of [...]

View From the BWCA Campsite

This summer I was offered the opportunity to go canoeing in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA) for an extended weekend with some friends. Having never done anything remotely like this ever, I was a little apprehensive about the whole thing (let alone how to protect my camera equipment.) Nonetheless, the trip was amazing and [...]
