First time for Kodak 400
As I load kodak 400 for the first time in my life I think about new technology and how it changes the way we live, communicate and photograph. We have instant “gratification” with every photo,

My Upper Antelope Canyon Adventure
Antelope Canyon is a slot canyon in the American Southwest. It is on Navajo land east of Page, Arizona. Antelope Canyon includes two separate, scenic slot canyon sections, referred to individually as “Upper Antelope Canyon” and “Lower Antelope Canyon”.

My thoughts on the Tamron 45mm 1.8VC
This is Tamron’s 45mm F/1.8 Di VC USD SP lens.
Tamron claims this is the “Start of a New Era”…

There are times when photographers lose motivation, creativity or just haven’t shot in a while and don’t know what to take photos of to keep their “image making juices” flowing..
