Hahahah…I’m guessing the sliced mushroom that Karen’s holding is what gave away the sponteneity of the shot. Maybe I should have people at parties hold vegetables.

I’m hoping I’ll get the lens next week actually, so I can use it at your New Years party. Cross your fingers!

Hey Man, awesome photos as usual.
I love the one of Karen and Jenn. It looks so setup and yet, I know it wasn’t.
So many great shots … and yes … WHERE IS THE SNOW?

We’ll be back in Trem in under a month, so get that new lens warmed up!!!

@sikander — I’m not currently using anything to organize my photos. Every time I have a new set, I create a new chronological folder number. Somehow, I can remember which set was which number, so it usually doesn’t take long to search. I will probably start using Picassa in the new year though, it looks like a great solution.

@Nick R — Thanks, Nick, hope you have a good holiday too. It’s time for you to update your blog, so remember to take your camera with you. Looking back on these photos reminded me of how much I miss the fisheye effect, so I checked B&H and they just happened to have a used Canon 15mm on sale. It was only the second time I’ve seen it on sale out of the hundreds of times I visit the used section, so I took it as a sign and had to buy it.

@Pearl — Thanks, Pearl, I didn’t even notice the balding tires. The riders did a lot of wheelies and stoppies, so I imagine that it’s just normal wear for them.

@Simon — Check your e-mail.

@Reno — I can’t seem to get the hang of adjusting focus or judging light either, which is why I use autofocus mostly, and trust my light meter. Unfortunately, the onboard camera computer doesn’t quite work for a lot of situations (or exceptions, as they are) and the meter is fooled, so I compensate for it in photoshop.

@Ralph Dagza — Thanks, but I was going to keep it a secret until the new year.

I can never seem to get the hang of adjusting focus and judging light, etc. to get pictures of quality like this. They look really good.

I love those photos, it’s incredible how you get the gallery thing to work with them. Is there a plugin you use or something? Email me about it please

Wow. I love how you can make such amazing compositions and then do it a second time for each as a subsection preview.

Wonder at the balding tires on the stunt bike.

I’m not surprised you’re applying this skill to the company catalogue.

Awesome photos man. I miss the snow too… Crossing my fingers that when I get back from my vacation that there’s some snow to welcome me back. I hope you have a good holiday, with lots of shooting opportunities.

Cheers,
Nick

yep, your pictures are getting better and better.

i was wondering what photo organizer, if any, you use for your digital pictures. Picassa or something else? i’m still organizing mine in folders sorted by date but that is getting tiresome and it is pretty hard to search for something as well.

any suggestions ?
