Color on High
Today was without question one of the best photo days I’ve ever had. My buddy, Jay, and I headed north to the Martinsdale Reservoir about 1:30pm with perfect clouds filling the sky and nothing but stunning scenes to behold.

The Yellow Skirt
I’ve come to love shots with flat, ambient light, taken just after the ‘glory hour’ of sunset. When working with black and white or duotone images, sometimes a scene is best photographed after the sun is already down.

3D MT Style
You’ll likely recognize the scene from today’s shot, but I decided to give the 3D action a little whirl. Neil Creek got me interested in 3D not too long ago and I’ve been playing around with the technique as it applies to larger landscapes. I know most of you will not be able to see [...]

As the Yellowstone River courses past the town’s southern border it forks several times and creates a number of islands. The largest of these, 9th Street Island, has both homes and businesses on it, including Oasis Environmental where my friend [...]
