Question: If I were to make a video tutorial, what would you want to learn from me? Please leave your suggestions below.

This was taken at Great Falls park in the autumn time.

Ok, enough with the snow and cold weather for now. I’m thinking about the beach today.

Hopefully this is just a place holder and I’m out shooting some white stuff outside.

So how do we feel about the snow that’s going to hit the east coast this weekend? Yesterday the lady who was returning my stuff at Target was telling me that she thinks its going to be 14-23″. I don’t know about that, but I do think it’s going to be pretty significant. On one side I’m excited because it’s so fun to watch Frankie play in the snow but on the other side, I had some pretty awesome plans for the weekend that may be cancelled 🙁

I took this image a few years ago. I don’t remember the exact date but I do remember what I was thinking while I was taking it.

First, I remember it being really cold and freezing my butt of on a rock with my camera and tripod. Second, I remember being obsessed with the light. But I think at that time I didn’t know why or what about it that I loved so much. I just remember being so hypnotized that I couldn’t even blink, you know the kind where you just keep on staring and staring. You know that you need to turn away, but you just can’t.

And then when I got home I didn’t like the image. I think it was because I didn’t know how to edit it properly to what I saw. Now that some years have passed and I’ve gotten better at post processing that I can now accurately depict the amazing flow of water, light and rhythms crashing in front of me. I loves it and it’s crazy how just looking at an image can bring back so many emotions.

I just love how the fog simplifies everything. If I were to take this same image on a clear day, you would of seen buildings, the Potomac River, and who knows what else. The fog cleared everything else out and left a beautiful backdrop to highlight these beautiful willow tree branches. Seriously, in love.
