Just curios if anyone here using stuff lien instagram or anything else for your photos?

I use instagram and am a member of a couple of different groups on Facebook as well.

Geez, been forever since I last post anything on here. I've done a lot of shooting in the past year or so. Thought I would share my last couple from yesterday

I have a love/hate relationship with zoos, i understand that they are a necessary evil and they play a major role in wildlife conservation but they are also really depressing.
Its sad to me to see these animals in their enclosures because no matter what, the inclosure is not big enough. The animals don't get to hunt for food, they don't really live the l...

Some shots of an old lime Kiln that was built in 1890. There used to be a logging operation here. The entire area is covered in the brightest green moss I've even seen. The trail is about 3 miles long each way and the old kiln is at the end, the locals say it sneaks up on you, they compare to old mayan ruins were it just pops up out of nowhere. They weren...

Shot these two on the Snohomish river in Washington.

Its my first ever shot of both an Eagle and the Great Blue Heron.

I guess this old park was at one point some kind of gas facility . Its an interesting place but was hell to shoot at night. I struggled with light the whole time I was there. So I'm not completely happy with the results.

The lighthouse is the Mulkiteo lighthouse, its right next to the ferry to Whidbey island.

Ive been living in Washington for almost a...

Spent the week working in L.A count, unfortunately I didn't have much time to shoot as I was working long hours during the day. I did get out to long beach harbor and the Walt Disney Concert Hall in downtown L.A Unfortunately some work crews were setting up an event at the concert hall for the weekend so the angle where i shot from was the only place you...

I used to shoot butterflies all the time and for whatever reason i stopped.So I shot some today at the park.
Its been raining most of the week in San Diego which is odd since its the middle of summer. Didn't get much shooting done.

I wanted to shoot this spot soon because I may be relocating to Washington soon for work. The bridge is known as crooked bridge,pretty cool place but even though i was there at 1am there was still a bunch of people around. Also shot a couple of Petco park, Home of my lowly San Diego Padres

Only shot at night all weekend. Im actually having a lot of fun with and although im not getting the best results yet, I am at least seeing improvement. And im not sure if the people on the pier is a nono but I like them on there.

If anyone has any tips on this stuff i would welcome it.


I might go on a night photo binge for a while.

Driving into along the side of Otay lake and I watched this hawk snatch a fish out of the water and land on a tree right next to me. Jumped out of the car and unpacked my gear as fast as I could.
Ive been in the habit of taking some test shots when I first get to a spot to make sure all my settings are the way I want them. For times just like this. Normal...

Night photography is not my strong suit thats for sure. I took a bunch of pics while on a walk on the harbor in Downtown San Diego.These are the ones I liked most.

I especially like the one of the Coronado Bay Bridge lights running across the frame.

I think i may head back down this weekend and have another crack at it. Not really satisfied with what I...

Trying to work on my landscapes. Im still never happy with how my landscape shots come out. Its very possible that im just being too critical of myself. Im gonna keep at it.

On a lighter note, the seagull stood on the others back for about a minute or so. Not sure what was going on there.

I guess i should say, Butterfly. Same little guy just from a different angle.

Kind of an uneventful hike i had this weekend.

This park is underneath the start of the Coronado Bay Bridge and I5 in barrio Logan. It has ton of history both good and bad as it is in one of the most crime ridden neighborhoods in San Diego. The park was built in the early 70's after the Coronado Bay bridge was built over part of the neighborhood displacing many families. The state was going to make th...
