What’s Up?
On Tuesday I made some prints for a friend, answered more than a few e-mails, and did about eight more critiques of participants’ images from the two Palouse IPTs.
This blog post took about 15 minutes to prepare and was published at 5:00am early on the morning of Wednesday, June 17.

What’s Up?
First off, thanks a zillion to the folks who wished me a Happy Bird-day both here and especially on Facebook. I really felt the love. I worked very had yesterday but after the fact I am not sure what I accomplished. Did enjoy my core exercises, a lightning and thunder-shortened swim, and an […]
What’s Up?
I spent most of my birthday–thanks a stack to the huge number of folks who sent birthday wishes along either here or especially on Facebook–doing what I do most days when I am home: answered e-mails, worked on this blog post, worked on a few images, started another round of core exercises, and […]
What’s Up?
I spent all morning getting the information needed for the National Trust memberships together for the sold out UK Puffins and Gannets IPT; the task was finished just before lunch. Now I need to get the passes. That on Monday.
I went to granddaughter Maya’s dance recital in the afternoon and created […]
What’s Up?
My first night home I slept eight hours with five pit stops. After my first ice bath in more than two weeks on Thursday, I slept seven hours with no pit stops. The power of the ice baths is amazing. No swim on Friday, just an ice bath. When I finish this blog […]
What’s Up?
Somewhat surprisingly, I lost 3 pounds on the Palouse trip. Go figure…. I slept eight hours last night until awakened by a vicious cramp in my left calf. It was good to get back into my routine: a swim and an ice bath. This blog post, which took me about 2 hours to […]

My alarm was set for 3:00am on Wednesday morning. Denise and I left the hotel at 4:10am to make our flights, mine at 5:25am to Denver and then on to MCO, hers to SLC at 6:15m and then onto Newark. I slept off and on on both flights and I am sure that denise […]
This HDR Art Vivid (+/- 3 stops)image was created on day 4 of the Palouse IPT with the tripod-mounted Canon EF 11-24mm f/4L USM lens (at 14mm) and the Canon EOS 5D Mark III . ISO 300. Evaluative metering at zero yielded a base exposure of 1/2 second at f/20 in Av […]
What’s Up?
We photographed a wonderful old prairie home in the early morning; I made probably my favorite image of the trip. I will share it with you here soon. Then we photographed a barn that we had been searching for for a year. We made out trek to Palouse Falls State Park that Monday […]
What’s Up?
We had a great morning that began at denise’s tree. We followed that up with three great red barns. Then a quick coffee break. We finished the morning up with some mustard fields panos and two more great red barns. Then an indoor picnic-style deli lunch, Photoshop and image critiquing and sharing sessions. […]
What’s Up
The hip is feeling better each day, and my black and blue and yellow and purple bruise keeps getting larger. We had a great 2nd morning on the 2nd Palouse IPT at a dijon mustard field in bloom. Talk about a win-win situation, the participants learned from and were inspired by the two […]
What’s Up
My hip is feeling fine and my black and blue and yellow and purple bruise is getting larger by the hour. The 2nd Palouse IPT got off to a great start. This blog post, the 149th in a row, took about 1 1/4 hours to prepare. It was published just after midnight on […]
Miracle Day in the Palouse
Today was indeed a miracle day in the Palouse. We did not go photographing. We did not make a single image. We did no scouting. As I said, it was a miracle day.
We have a meet and greet with the second Palouse IPT folks at 7:30 pm Thursday […]
What’s Up?
One Palouse IPT down. One day off almost done. One more of each to go. This morning’s outing to denise’s tree wound up being a bit of a painful adventure for me. Read on. We did a bit more scouting in the afternoon and after two pretty boring hours of driving we hit […]
What’s Up?
One Palouse IPT down. One to go. Denise and I are planning to get up at 3:30am to photograph her very own special tree; story to follow at some point.
This blog post, the 146th in a row, took about 45 minutes to prepare. It was published just after midnight on Tuesday.

What’s Up?
We went to the crooked barn, my very favorite in the entire Palouse Region. And we were finally blessed by a cloudy day. A great time was had by all as we covered the basics of creating originals for stitched panos and HDR captures. On Monday afternoon we are heading for Palouse Falls […]
What’s up?
The IPT group thrilled on a gorgeous red sunrise from Steptoe Butte. Long lenses were best, the longer the better. I shared my 200-400 with the internal TC in place and an external TC added with several participants, and opened Bill Keay’s eyes to the possibilities as he has owns the lens. Then […]
Stuff
Our prayer for clouds was answered for a few hours at least, and we all got to sleep an extra hour on Saturday morning. And on the way back to the hotel, we found some killer canola fields, yellow gold.
This blog post, the 143rd in a row, took about 1 1/2 hours […]
What’s Up?
Up at 3am for the third day in a row for both Denise and me. Photography with the 1st Palouse IPT group till 9:30. Photoshop, lunch, nap, plan for the next two days of the IPT, afternoon session, work, and then sleep.
This blog post, the 142nd in a row, took about […]
What’s Up?
On Thursday we met BAA friend Dan Logen for a morning of scouting and photography. We met on Steptoe Butte and photographed for just a bit. After that Dan led the way….
