Here's a picture of a Goldfinch having its dinner. Desoto is pretty awesome by the way, I highly encourage people to take a trip out if you get a chance!

Goldfinch
On: Monday, February 8, 2010
Went out shooting with Lanette and Joel from the Photo Shoppe yesterday. We were in search of Bald Eagles at Desoto Wildlife Refuge. Didn't get a lot of great shots of the Eagles, but we did see two bald eagles, and a youngling, so it was pretty awesome. Hopefully I'll be able to make it back a few times early this spring, as the numbers should be higher.

Simplicity
On: Sunday, January 31, 2010
Sometimes, the simplest of photos can grab and hold your attention.
I went out shooting with Lanette yesterday. Ryan was going to join us, but there was a pretty bad car accident in his family, and he had to leave shortly after getting to Lincoln. Luckily everyone is doing OK, though a bit shaken and beaten up.

Hot Chocolate!
On: Thursday, January 21, 2010
I took this photo yesterday at the coffee shop. We're looking at upping our presence on both Google and our website, so I was taking some photos of some of our products to use it as a visual element in coupons. I quite like it, and I'm really digging the overall quality that the 7D is putting out. Sadly for you, the viewer, this small image doesn't do the shot near enough justice. I like the crop on this one, I probably won't use it for the coupon, but I like it better than many of the other images. Also, it's kind of dramatic, no?
7D | 80mm | 1/100 | f3.5 | ISO 400
In other news, my modeling career has taken off, as Ryan has sold 4 photos of me in it. One of the sold photos has caught my attention, as it was purchased by the new TV show "Caprica". Here's a link to the photo: Clicky. As the royalty check was pretty small, they must not be doing too much with it, but it's cool nonetheless.
You may have also noticed that I've been trying to write more with the blog entries. Hopefully this has offered some insight to my work, and I plan on continuing!

Storm Chasing
On: Tuesday, January 19, 2010
My friend Ryan is a fantastic storm chaser. This photo is from one of the first chases I went on with him. We ended up in northern Nebraska during this shoot, spending much of our time driving back and forth between Columbus and Schuyler, based on current weather conditions, and actively trying not to be hit by a tornado. I know he reads this blog, so let it be known, that if he doesn't take me out at least twice this year, I'm disowning him :D
View Large and On Black
There are many cliché photographs that photographers go for. The trick is to make whatever cliché you're going after unique. That being said, I think every photographer needs their very own, "Grass blowing in the wind" shot. Luckily, the killer storm was giving me a beautiful backdrop.

Horned Lark

Lanette finally got a DSLR, so we had a mini lesson yesterday, and then went out shooting for a bit. I found my very first Horned Lark, so I consider this a pretty good shoot!
Canon 7D | 640mm | 1/800 | f10 | ISO 400
(yes, I know it's on snow, and 400 is overkill, but I was afraid he was going to take off, and took some safety shots. Once I switched lower, he was gone.)

Espresso

Canon 7D | 80mm | 1/60 | 1.8 | ISO 1000
My coffee addiction is coming along quite nicely!
This picture was taken yesterday with my new Canon 7D, which is truly an amazing piece of equipment. I really like the focal plane that runs along the handle and rim of the pitcher.
I just got in a battery pack, extra battery, and a couple of high capacity CF cards, so I'm good to go!
I'm also going to start posting some of the info on the picture, in case it helps other photographers that read this blog.
More Grasslands

Here are two more from Nine Mile Prairie. I'll work on getting some new material soon!

Definitely worth looking at large, and on black!

Sometimes I forget I have a blog... Sorry about that, for the 3 of you that read it.
Halloween is one of my favorite holidays of the year, and we had a pretty good week leading up to it. I got to scare the crap out of Lanette, I went to 2 pumpkin patches, had two costumes, multiple parties, massive beer consumption, and Monster Squad!
Anywho, last night we went to a Halloween party, and I dressed up as an Amish gentleman. I loved the costume, and it was super simple, since I had the beard, shirt, jacket, etc.

Summer
On: Monday, October 12, 2009
It's getting cold around here. We've already had our first measurable snow fall, and I find myself longing for just a bit more time out in the beautiful summer air.
Have I ever mentioned how much I actually hate all the wind in Nebraska? Coupled with cold temperatures, it's a real drag.
Here's to memories:
