Think Tank Giveaway

Very cool Think Tank photo bag giveaway

http://blog.thinktankphoto.com/in-a-bag-thinktankphoto-competition/

I use and love Think Tank bags, I have three of them and they are all useful.  I use the Think Tank Airport Takeoff as my travel rolling bag.  It takes everything I need to my destination and acts as a storage locker for my gear.  Best of all, it fits in the overhead bin on most planes.  I use the Think Tank Shapeshifter bag that I pack inside my suitcase.  This backpack that folds flat is great for travel. Very slim but with tons of storage, it goes to the beach, the mountains or just city shooting.  Last of all I use a SlingoMatic 30 as my travel light bag.  I like over the shoulder bags if I am just out for a few hours and the SlingoMatic from Think Tank is awesome.

Enter the contest, you will be glad you did!

Weekend Photo Shoot 11/11 - 11/13

Well it was an interesting weekend, I was working on a free lance shoot, creating some web content.  A beautiful fall day, brilliant sunshine, blue skies, just the right amount of clouds.  Got to wander some areas I had not seen before.  Most of the content that I was working to create was static, architecture, buildings, random city scenes.

A few times I had the opportunity to grab a few shots for myself.  With fall being my favorite time of year, I always look for things that reflect the season.  Here is one such shot of some fall grasses with great color in the background

This park area was very tranquil, the sun gave me a chance to capture some great light, shadow and color.  This next shot of a simple bridge give me color and contrast between the leaves and the metal structure.

Lots of images to go though, it was a busy day.  Until next time, keep shooting

Weekend Photo Shoot 10/29 - 10/30

A fantastic weekend for wandering and shooting.  We made a day out of it, shooting in the quaint little town of Fredericksburg, VA.  Loads of history and very picturesque areas but one thing that really caught my eye was some fantastic wall art.

We were told that this mural was painted by the former owner of the building and that he was a potter.  The scenes are of various people making pottery.  The bright colors are contrasted by the fading and peeling of the paint from the side of the wall.

I have more images to go through from the weekend but there wont be many more days like this past Sunday before winter.

Stay warm and keep shooting!
