get Great Glass - i.e. (Lenses)
Every once in a while I get reminded that great glass is not only a gift but it's a necessity. It's a necessity in order to separate you from everyone else - it's a necessity to give your images the power of a compelling view. Get great lenses - even if it's just one - get one - and shoot that system like you are going to die tomorrow.

the Light
While shopping I took this image of a hanging light - using the 35mm Nikon F100 and the 50mm f1.4 it turned out really well. It’s interesting when it all comes together and the final result surprises you after development and the scan. This is where the choice of premium gear, meaning the lens, will really set the captured scene apart from the normal view.

Grab the easy shot...
Sometimes - it pays to experiment and take the easy shot - maybe it’s the shot right in front of you - maybe you are walking the dog and you can pull up the camera and see what happens after you hit the shutter release.
That’s exactly what I did with this capture. My wife and I were walking the dog - I had a fast f1.4, 50mm - and I set it up and hoped for the best. I couldn’t have expected the result - oh - and this was on film - so I had no idea what would eventually happen.

the Lola...
The Lola — we love this bulldog… she’s some great company. But — she’s developed a limp on her rear left leg - we though it was a pulled muscle from just going all out - as she does. But — nope — it’s a torn or partially torn ACL. Ugh — so - she goes under the knife soon once we figure out how good/bad the condition really is.

a Sense of Order
Whenever I'm looking I trie to See. I try to build the frame in my mind and that is hit or miss and sometimes it comes easily and sometimes not at all. Sometimes it's the weather, the mood, my mood, the people I'm with, or the needs of the dog when I'm walking her -- yadda, yadda, yadda..
Ok -- so you get the point -- sometimes it happens, and sometimes it just doesn't... no matter how hard you try.
But -- there are times when a scene just grabs you -- and that's when I have to get the shot. And during those times if I don't get the shot then I become obsessed and really bummed I didn't make the image.
So -- here's what I'm getting at -- while walking the dog with my wife this scene caught my eye and I took it hand held on the Nikon F100 with 400 ASA Ilford. And -- I love this image. The whole lesson here is while your looking try to see - try to see the superimposed frame in front of you - and sometimes that comes easily, and some times - it just doesn't.

the Scene
I'm always trying to see thru the ordinary and capture something which will look good as a photo. Something which sparks an interesting thought or glance to want to see more. Getting all of this to work - is really quite a task to accomplish. Black and White can add something - as would color if the scene is met. But when it does become evident and the picture does become - it can be magical.

Streetwalk
Last Fall I would walk the neighborhood with Lola the English Bulldog and my Nikon F100. Every once in a while a scene would appear - or - better said - I would will a scene to be captured. Every photo - every frame - is a stretch of sanity without slapping the shutter release of pure hope something would eventually develop. And develop is correct as I'm shooting film here -- but I'll stop babbling -- this is what I got in the window of the Architectural firm.

Hagerman
This was in Hagerman Idaho. It was one of those days where I had the time to shoot but I had to dig really deeply to find anything -- really -- anything to shoot. I walked out side from the house - about 100 yards away and this scene appeared. And I decided to make it work and capture it as best as i could manage. Shot on Portra 400 with the Nikon F100.
