I posted recently about why it took me so long to go through my Antelope Canyon images. It was pretty simple: they required a lot of processing. For those that are interested, I’ll share some details about how much processing that entailed. An example of a 7-shot bracketed image. Notice how some of the images …
More Images from Antelope Canyon
I visited Lower Antelope Canyon over six weeks ago and still hadn’t posted more than a few images. There are two reasons for this: I took a lot of images and each requires a fair amount of processing. Light in the canyon varies significantly so I took 3-5 images of each shot at different exposures …

Buying from Japan
I spend a fair amount of time on eBay looking for items to add to my collection and I’ve learned that there are just some things you can’t get in America. Sometimes products aren’t popular in the U.S., leading to fewer options and higher prices; other times they weren’t sold in the U.S. market at …
How I Came to Buy a Backpack from 2005
