Canon in Europe have put up four sets of publications highlighting various aspects of photography. While they’re specific to Canon gear, many of the concepts in these little publications apply equally to all brands of camera gear. Two of the booklets, Using Image Stabilizer Lenses and Do More With Macro are included in the [...]

The only way to make decent photos is to get out there and make them. They don’t happen by themselves.

I’m all for going to the edge, photographically, but this is a little extreme!

This past weekend, AcoustiSound provided sound reinforcement for the Indie Heaven Spotlight concert series, hosted by Rick LaRocca, and held at the Lakeside Cafe in Columbia. Rick’s been doing this series at the Lakeside Cafe since last November, and the series has been quite successful. Unfortunately, our hosts at the Lakeside Cafe have decided that they [...]
Donna and I spent a fairly pleasant (if not hot and sticky) evening … strolling around Wilde Lake. As long as I’ve been around Columbia (more than 35 years!), I don’t think I’ve ever bothered to spend much time there.
What a treat I was missing!
The area is like walking through a wildlife sanctuary — in fact, [...]
