Here is a program I stumbled upon that can stitch together many images to creat truly 360 degree images thought I would give it a go with some images I had of Jackson Lake and Mt. Moran and String Lake, respectively that I am not really doing anything with. Its kinda cool.

In a Dark Mood

2008-10-06T23:42:00.009-06:00

Here are a few shots I have take over the last 3 weeks. I have been trying out some new methods in adobe lightroom lately and I really like some of the moods they invoke. Let me know what you think.

Here is a photo I took after my assignment hiking down from the area I did my sports shoot.

Sports Photography

2008-09-29T22:45:00.003-06:00

So I just got home from a presentation from one of the best sports photographers of the last 50 years, Dave Black. I must say that he is not only a master of his craft but he has inspired me to pursue more sports photography and Lightpainting. For those of you that do not know about lightpainting it is a process where you take a dark subject and illuminate it with a strobe or flashlight while leaving your shutter open. It can produce amazing images and it is something I have tried but I really want to work on it more. Besides that I have been shooting for the upcoming working women section that I am photo editor and photographer for. Here is a shot I took today of Jill Damon a Mountain biker and businesswoman. This was taken on a hillside near work on a trail called sink or swim.

Buckethead Concert 09/17/08

2008-09-18T01:40:00.006-06:00

Here are a few shots from a Buckethead concert at the Mangy Moose Saloon in Teton Village. This is my first try at concerts let me know what you think.

This is a cool wide shot I think that I like shooting concerts.

I think the high contrast b&w works well with this.

This is my friend Ashley taking photos of the trees with lights and the moon after the concert. Its a little pixelated because I was shooting handheld and a long exposure (0.5 sec).

This is great!!! Bristol Palin Juneau Spoof

Ok, So it not related to photography but I loved the movie Juno and thought this was appropriate given the amount of coverage the presidential election has been getting lately.
