Now that winter is approaching I have more time to process through photos from our vacation to Kauai Hawaii that my family took this year. I’ve got multiple gigs of photos to process still. I thought I would share this panoramic view of the Wailua River valley taken on the island of Kauai (my favorite).
For today’s image, I captured three RAW files of the valley on my Canon 40D set to manual mode, the manual setting allowed me to get a consistent exposure across all three photos. After processing them in Adobe Lightroom using Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) I selected all three images in Lightroom and selected “Merge to Panorama in Photoshop CS3″. I then cropped the final photo and saved it as a jpeg file. CS3 did a great job stitching the photos together.

I upgraded my camera this week to a Canon 5d Mark II. I haven’t had much time to take some serious photos yet so yesterday I headed up to the state capitol building. I am thrilled for the full frame sensor and the low light capabilities and of course the 21 megapixel goodness.

Last month was busy for me with high school senior photoshoots and families wanting fall photos. I will be sharing those images but thought I would share a few of my favorites of Maddi. I had an absolute blast with her and her mom. She is a talented ballet dancer and loves to hang out with my daughter. Full Gallery Here

A few of us got together Friday at Black Rock by the Great Salt Lake and did a little Rock Band photoshoot. Nathan Marx organized the event and with the help of Rob Snow, Shane & Bekah we had our models. Kudos to Rob for hauling his expensive drums out there, I have to say they look pretty awesome next to the lake.
I’m not sure what I will do with these images yet but I had a blast with Nathan, Ziggy & Rob. You can see the rest of the photos here

I often ask myself if hauling around my camera, extra lens, flash, macbook pro, two external hard drives, power supply and a bunch of little odds and ends in my backpack to work each day is really worth it. Well, on a recent drive to work it paid off. While driving to work this particular day the sun rays were so bright peaking over Francis Peak that I couldn’t resist making this photo.
I normally put my camera on the seat next to me when I drive so I’m not fumbling for it on the freeway. For today’s shot I set the camera to manual focus at infinity, held the camera up to the window and snapped away going 70 miles per hour. I was lucky enough to get a few good shots.
