Just out Shooting!

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

Window Boxes

With last weekend being a three day weekend, and both of us just needing a break away from everything, we took off for Lexington, KY. Taking photos was part of the plan, but not the main focus. It was much more important to spend time with my wife, “running away” together for a couple of days more than anything.

Given that, our plans didn’t really involve making sure we always were at the best place at the best time for shooting great photos, but even if you’re not out shooting at the “golden hour” there are still a number of opportunities to take photos, and do some experimentation. Some of the experimental shots I took worked out just as I imagined it might, others not at all. The important thing was just to take some shots, explore the area of the country and have some new experiences. In that regard, mission accomplished!

    The Best Camera

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    The best camera, of course, is the one you have with you. My wife has recently talked about missing the days when her camera was easy to throw in her purse and just have with her. Now that she owns a Nikon D70, it requires a little more than that to make sure she has…
