"What camera do you use?" "What lens is that?" "What does your setup look like?"
Here's the latest photography setup in what I'm traveling around with. Gear and bag list with purchase links at the bottom, below the sample image.

The next Jeep mod was doing a full vehicle tint. I took it to the group at Las Vegas Auto Tint & Graphics, and they did an incredible job. Gordon is a long time film veteran who did all of the precise cutting with just a freestyle hand, and made strong stylistic suggestions that I couldn't help but agree with. Maggie and Brandi also did a great job helping Gordon with some of the more tricky spots.
We ended up putting 18% over the back half, on top of the factory tint, so it matches closely to the 5% limo tint we did to the front half. We also put a thick 5% strip across the windshield for more light/heat protection.
Pretty happy with how it turned out! Now to just remember to keep my Optometrist's note in the car in case I get hassled for being darker than legal...

Seeing the difference of no tint vs limo tint from the inside
Now the next test is taking it out at night. I'm not going to lie, it's really dark from the inside.

Red Rock, rocks!
Recently I packed up my Pacific Northwest life and moved down to the foot of Red Rock Canyon, in Las Vegas. It's been pretty amazing getting to go venture outside daily with my Jeep, dog, and cameras.
Just wanted to share a few photos of my trips out there, and there will certainly be more.
You can view them scattered throughout the main gallery, but here is all of them together. Cheers!
Photography - new website section
I just picked up a Canon 60D, my first DSLR. I also just added a new section to my site - Photography - so you can follow along in my growth and exploration!
I'll update the blog with a select few of my favorites, but will keep most of the activity in that section of the site.
Cheers!

Not sure why I never posted this, but for Halloween I was Zombie Jim Henson, my buddy Mike was Zombie Kermit and his gf Priya was Zombie Miss Piggy. We had a blast putting together the costumes (and latex!) and Mike, being the sexy awesome photographer he is, set up a little shoot. I just went to Mike's solo show last night to see my creepy mug larger than life, framed along the wall. It was awesome.
You can see more of Mike Folden's photography here.

My eye:
All images of my brother's reptiles (and my eye) are taken by Brian Brew. This is just a small sample of what you can find on his Flickr.
I highly suggest going through his gallery and seeing some of his amazing shots; so captivating! Make sure to see the high resolution images of some of the eyes and textures.
