I was stoked to see a FedEx box on my porch this morning that contained my new business cards, both for Colby Brown Photography and The Giving Lens. I blurred out the phone numbers to attempt to prevent spam phone calls 
All thanks go to +Lauren Hurst of Spry Media for designing and getting these printed in a hurry. It was certainly about time for an update!

Recently I had the pleasure of being the featured guest on the wildly popular TWiT Photo podcast with Catherine Hall and Alex Lindasy (Who filled in for Leo Laporte). Every week they feature some of the best photographers in the world and it was truly an honor to be on the show. The last four episodes featured Zach Arias, Chase Jarvis, Jasmine Star and then me

Each year I have the privilege to explore some of the most beautiful locations on this planet and while everyone doesn’t get the oppertunity to travel the world, I hope that through my photography work and adventures, I help bring a piece of the world to your computer screen. For my next adventure through Southern Patagonia in Chile and Argentina, I have set up a live GPS feed that will be run through the Colby Brown Photography website which will allow you to follow along with my wife and I….step by step. The GPS feed itself will go active on October 22nd, 2010 which is when Sarah and I land in El Calafate, Argentina and begin our trip.

Just click on the “I am currently in” link that is located at the top right of every page on this website.
You will then be taken to a new page that will showcase a track of my GPS coordinates that is updated a few times a day.
This trip is going to be an amazing experience and I am looking forward to sharing the photography work and stories that come out of this project. Enjoy!
Last weekend I had the privilege to not only teach a Photography Seminar and Workshop for the Color the Skies Event in Modesto, California, but also to spend a few days sleeping under the stars in Tuolumne Meadows up in Yosemite National Park. John Muir has always been one of my hero’s when it came to the conservation of nature and like usual, I recently found his words hitting home. These days I find myself all over the globe. By the end of this year I will have worked in Guatemala, Honduras, Haiti, Chile, Argentina and all over the US. In between those trips I usually find myself in front of a computer either editing photography work or working in my new position with one of my sponsors, F-Stop Gear, as the Community and Events Director. The point is that everyone, myself included, needs to take time to get out into nature and enjoy her peace and beauty.
I released this “Ad” for my photography business last year, but felt that it was time to bring it back out and share.
“Keep close to nature’s heart…and break clear away, once in a while,
and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.”

Today is June 21 and the first official day of summer. Clear skies, beautiful weather and warm summer nights. I hope you all get a chance to head to the beaches, hike up into the mountains or just enjoy spending the weekends outside. With the onslaught of the BP oil spill, this is a great time of year to celebrate all of the various reasons we love and cherish nature and the outdoors. He is a quick video from The Nature Conservancy that I have shown before but that I feel is fitting.
I leave you with two photos that are meant to inspire you to get outside and start exploring!
“Eden” – Byron Bay, Australia – 2004
“Buddhist Heights” – Annapurna Circuit, Nepal – 2007
What is it like to take local buses in a 3rd world country? How do I determine what to document on a trip to another country? What it is like to live life in my shoes?
I recently wrote an article for F-stop Gear, the leading adventure photography bag maker in the industry right now, about my trip to Guatemala earlier this year. It started yesterday with Day 1 and continues today with Day 2. Be sure to check back in each day with them to read the full story. This piece covers 12 days of travel through the beautiful, wild and amazing country of Guatemala. Enjoy!
A few months ago, I was contacted by an online fine art gallery called “Discovered Artists”. Specializing in connecting clients with artists, they expressed interest in my work and soon after we began a business relationship. This video is one of 3 promotional videos they will produce this year to help get my work out in front of as many people as possible. I think they did a great job and I look forward to doing business with them in the future.
