• Out in the Gorge

    I realized I never posted these, and thought I would share.  I had a little bit of time to swing by Hocking Hills State Park a few weeks ago and take a quick run through the gorge north of Old Man’s Cave.  While I normally make a yearly fall trip there for two days for…

    First Impressions: Sigma 19mm f/2.8 EX DN

    Sigma has been around for a long while, making their own lenses and cameras for the Sigma SA mount, as well as an array of high end compact cameras.  They also are one of the major third party lens manufacturers for most DSLR camera mounts.  However, they’ve just recently gotten into the mirrorless game with…

  • A Cold Evening

    For the first time in a long time, I really got a chance to go out and shoot for a bit.  I went downtown after work and got some shots of the sunset and the city at night.  I’m very much a proponent of the ‘gear doesn’t make the shot’ crowd, but on evenings like…

  • The City at Dusk

    Tonight on the way home from work, I stopped to capture this. The sun was nearly below the horizon and the sky was overcast, but just enough sunlight remained to give a kiss of light to the windows of the city.

  • Review: Panasonic Lumix G Vario 35-100mm f/2.8 X OIS

    Panasonic and Olympus have been very busy the past few years, filling out their lens lineups for Micro 4/3, and while there have been some consumer grade lenses released in this time frame, both Olympus and Panasonic have really targeted the high-end enthusiast and professional with their recent lens offerings.  At first, Micro 4/3 had…

  • Review: Olympus M.Zuiko 60mm f/2.8 Macro

    Quite a while back, Olympus hinted at their first true macro lens for Micro 4/3…the 60mm f/2.8.  It’s taken a while to come to market, but it finally saw official release this past September.  I was lucky enough to pick one up shortly thereafter.  Olympus priced this lens competitively, at $499, coming in well under…

  • Review: Sony NEX-7

    Review: Sony NEX-7

    The Sony NEX-7 has been out for quite a while now, but it still sits atop the NEX line of mirrorless Compact System Cameras in the flagship position. It features a 24 megapixel APS-C sensor in a very tiny body, and for many people was somewhat of a ‘holy grail’ camera when it was released…

  • Grains on a Petal

    I know it’s been a long time since my last post.  I have been swamped at work and have had very little time to shoot or write.  I forced myself to take a few pictures today, though.  My wife had gotten some flowers a few days ago and I used them as a little subject.…
