My last hike of 2017 wasn’t scheduled, but it was enjoyed. The winter sun was hanging low in the sky when Sam hit me up. He was sitting bored at his house and debating on playing some video games, but before he did he hit me up. I suggested we go out to the forest for a quick hike to breath in some fresh mountain air. He agreed.
Some nights when I need to get out of the house I like to go visit my long time friend Mike at his restaurant, The Summit Family Restaurant in Camp Hill, Pa. I go in an hour or two before closing, after the day has died down, and pop open my computer, drink some coffee and maybe eat a turkey club or something.
On a cold December morning I met up with a long time friend who I haven’t seen in a while, ol’ Chuck aka Huck Photo. It would seem the older I get the more difficult it is for me to see certain people. People I used to see multiple times a week I am now lucky to see multiple times a year.
A couple of Sundays ago I was asked by my parents if I would go with them to help them cut down their Christmas tree. Aside from the fact that my dad’s back has been troubling him, I eagerly accepted. I love getting outside. I am horrible at planning, but will say yes to going outside almost every time I’m asked.
One of the reasons I wanted a full frame camera was their ability to shoot in low light situations versus their crop sensor counterparts. Not that the modern crop sensors aren’t great, but the full frame sensors have size on their side. The a6000 and a7ii both shoot at 24mp, but the noise on the a7ii is noticeably less because the extra space of the sensor allows the pixels to “breath”.
Recently I was asked to shoot some food photography for a local restaurant, Boomerang Bar & Grill. This isn’t my first go round with food shots, but it is the one I’m most happy with. It is actually only the 3rd time I’ve ever taken pictures of food. I don’t even use my phone to pictures of my Italian subs and fries.
