THE GIVING LENS – GIVING BACK THROUGH PHOTO EDUCATION

CBphotography — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 13:55:06 +0000

We just had our first article written about my new organization, The Giving Lens, in "Fuel Your Photography". With TGL, I aim to blend three of my passions: Photography, Travel and truly making a difference in the lives of the communities we work in.

Give it a read if you have a few minutes. Pls Share…..

SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES

CBphotography — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 02:08:24 +0000

A box arrived this afternoon with a new goodie. Lets see if I can put this bad boy to use. If we use my current history of getting reviews out (like my Mac Book Air), I should have a review done in about 10 years

BEHIND THE LENS: BEFORE THE CHAOS

CBphotography — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 23:39:56 +0000

This morning I found myself in one of my favorite places in all of Colorado, Great Sand Dunes National Park. After getting up at 5am and hiking up the tallest sand dune in North America (while already at 8,000 ft of elevation) I was greeted to an awesome sunrise. Following that epic light, I ventured further into the dunes and happened to capture some beautiful light dancing across the dunes like this image below. However this was before things got crazy and I found myself in the middle of a 60 mph sand storm. I was still 3 miles from my car when it started to rain at the same time. Needless to say it was certainly an adventure. I was prepared and all my pro gear is fine, but my Canon s95 (that I used to take this photo) is being sent back to the repair shop. Apparently a $300 P&S camera is not weather sealed…who knew?

IT IS GOING TO BE A GOOD COUPLE DAYS

CBphotography — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 23:29:33 +0000

I made it The Great Sand Dunes National Park and set up my office for the next couple days. This is certainly one of my favorite places in Colorado. Great Sand Dunes National Park offers an amazing array of sand dunes (the tallest in the US) set against the backdrop of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains.

I have spotty internet, so I will be in an out for the next few days, but I will certainly try to share what I can and hopefully find a way to hold a live hangout while I shoot sunrise or sunset out here. The gods of cell phone coverage might be against us on that one, but I will try

I am re-organizing my photography library while also re-editing some old images with new techniques and new tools. Man I love brining an image back to life after it has been shelved for 3 or 4 years.

HEADING TO GREAT SAND DUNES NATIONAL PARK

CBphotography — Sat, 15 Oct 2011 15:48:50 +0000

It looks like a great day to head to the Great Sand Dunes NP. I will be shooting in this area for the next 4-5 days.

As usual you can track my GPS locations as I shoot via my website:

*This photo is not mine, but one I found on www.beatufiulplacestovisit.com. I have work from this area but my portfolio is in disarray as I port it and my online store over to SmugMug thanks to a new sponsorship.

MONGOLIA IT IS

CBphotography — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 03:36:47 +0000

I did a post earlier that asked if I should explore Guillin, China or Mongolia and it seems that Mongolia won fairly handily. I still really want to document Guillin, but Mongolia might be added to the list for 2012.

So far the travel schedule is:

Death Valley, Bolivia, Nicaragua, Israel/Palestine, Cambodia, Iceland, Alaska and now Mongolia. Most are workshops I am teaching, which I should add 5-8 small workshops in Colorado as well, for Fall Colors and Sunflowers and Spring time in RMNP.

2012 will be a good year…

A look at listening to your guy when out in the field

Shows how a test of patience can at times pay off in the long run with getting the photography work you truly wanted to capture in the first place. #behindthelens #colorado #photography #photoeducation
