The rantings, raves, and recollections of Fotodog. Sunday, May 10, 2015. Happy National Photography Month - Day 10. Mother's Day is always a tough day for me, because I'm never sure what the right gift, or plan is. But somehow, we always manage to put a smile on their faces. Rather than drone about technique or gear, I'll just leave you with this portrait of my wife and daughters. I am truly blessed to have them in my lives. Peace and Love,.

The rantings, raves, and recollections of Fotodog. Friday, April 10, 2015. Support Local Music 1.1 AvA. I moved to the Twin Cities in the summer 1988. It was shortly after that that I started shooting local bands. Even more, I became obsessed with live, local music. I have had the pleasure of watching so many good bands over the years (and a lot of crap bands). And I have made friends with so many of these people. Needless to say, AvA had me hooked. I attended a lot of their shows over the next coupl...

The rantings, raves, and recollections of Fotodog. Monday, March 17, 2014. I said, "Yes, I did. That was a fun show. I think you did great." He shook my hand, laughed a little and told me to have fun. Pretty cool guy. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the shoot, I enjoy the challenge. I always do. But when I get good stuff, I want to share it. Not for the money, but for the timeliness of the images, and a bit of selfish pride. Lens: Nikon 80-200mm f/2.8. Exposure compensation: -0.3. Sunday, March 16, 2014.

The rantings, raves, and recollections of Fotodog. Saturday, May 09, 2015. Happy National Photography Month - Day 9. Happy National Photography Month to you all. It was an absolutely beautiful day here in Minnesota today. I know some regions of the the midwest were dealing with snow. This photos was with my Droid Maxx. No special settings just the macro mode. I did bring this into Snapseed. One of my favourite editing apps. It works great for sharpening and adjusting vibrance and contrast. I am a voyeur ...

The rantings, raves, and recollections of Fotodog. Monday, June 24, 2013. Pulling from random sources I came across a few quotes of my favourite author and science fiction genius, Isaac Asimov. I wish I could say that I have read all of his works, but that is quite the daunting task. Here is a list of book titles. Ranging from 1950-1996, all 506 of them. I share with you some of Isaac's wisdom. 8220;Never let your sense of morals prevent you from doing what is right.”. 8220;Tell me why the stars do shine,.

The rantings, raves, and recollections of Fotodog. Thursday, May 07, 2015. National Photography Month - Day 7. Happy National Photography Month. Many of my fellow photo buddies know that I'm a big fan of Peter Hurley. Peter is a fantastic portrait artist, former model, and inventor. I have great respect for the man and his work. His lighting creations are now the standard for head shots for high-profile celebrities, and aspiring actors. His portrait work is some of the best. One Roto-Lite is camera left,...

The rantings, raves, and recollections of Fotodog. Thursday, June 11, 2015. Do You Love Your City? City pride has always interested me. From art, to music, to movies, to business, it's very interesting. And what is it that fuels your city pride? Is it your favourite sports teams? Is it your local music scene? Is it your social/political programs? We didn't have a sports team, we didn't have downtown, so what was it that created this City Pride? Fast forward a few years, I still struggle with the whole Ci...

The rantings, raves, and recollections of Fotodog. Friday, February 13, 2015. Memories of the Fleeting Moments. Every once in a while, I come across a photograph, a song, or an aroma that brings me back to what we all consider a fleeting moment. We all have them, a kiss on the cheek from one you admire, a joyous moment between two friends, or the giggling of young children. From the big studio, we heard our manager, Bryan making a few noises. Bryan was always unusually chipper. I admired that in ...Imagi...

The rantings, raves, and recollections of Fotodog. Wednesday, March 11, 2015. Let Their Be Peace on Earth. Peace has been a big part of my thoughts most days. I don't know if I'm more sensitive to other people's suffering, and doubts, or there is such a wave of despair and What I want for most people is for them to find peace in their hearts, and their soul. One of my friends sent me a copy of the Prayer for Peace by Saint Francis of Assisi. I wish and pray that you all know peace. Monday, March 09, 2015.
