Golden Nechako

Another great stop at the Nechako River this morning. I'll admit that my ears still hurt a bit. It is stupid cold right now. The temperature was -34℃ when I took this shot. So worth it though. I've doubled back to this spot two times now. Each time the light was better than when I first wanted to stop.

Merry Christmas

It's one thing to get a good family photo while being behind the camera. It's quite another to get one while being in front of it on a cold day. I'm pretty happy with how this one turned out. Merry Christmas. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” Luke 2:10-12

TWiT Photo Guest Quest

A few weeks ago I decided to enter the Twit Photo Guest Quest contest. Basically, listeners of the podcast were invited to submit photos for a chance to be on the show. I wasn't so excited about actually being on the show so much as having an amazing group of judges potentially looking at my photographs. The judges were, Frank Doorhof, Art Wolfe, Tamara Lackey, Colby Brown and Zack Arias. This is an amazing group of photographers. Late last week I found out I was a finalist. I wasn't quite sure what that meant. I'll admit that I was pretty excited. As it turns out there were hundreds of entries. Was that a hundred, or many hundreds? Either way I found out today that I ended up finishing in the top 20. I'm listed in a group of 10 folks after the winning top 10. A part of me figured I had a shot, and a part of me thought that there was no way I'd even get noticed. I'm extremely happy to have been acknowledged by the judges listed above. Here is the post by Catherine Hall announcing the winners. Here is the selection of photos I submitted. 500px Guest Quest Portfolio.
