    Bible Study Pizza Night

    My wife and I share our lives with a small group of friends that get together once a week in Boise. Some of the nights we get together include a potluck or some sort of dinner. This Monday, we barbecued pizza, and it was spectacular. I brought along the camera because, well, it’s what I…

    Here is a fun shot from the Meridian Bowling Alley. I shot it quick so it is a little rough, but I liked the colors.

    We went for a little hike up to Tablerock this afternoon. Boise is an incredible place, particularly for a lover of the outdoors. The trail is a bit steep and long for just a casual stroll but the view is well worth a little effort. Here is a shot I took of a bicyclist checking…

    Meridian Bowling Lanes

    This summer, the bowling lanes in the area are running a program for the kids. For a small price, you can sign up your kids and they can bowl 2 games a day for all summer. All you have to pay for is the shoes. We jumped on it. The only problem is our kids…

    This is just a shot of some puffy clouds that turned out really nice from this last weekend.

  • A Beautiful Sunday

    A Beautiful Sunday

    I’m not certain what the situation was today, but we had the honor of a visit from a few police officers at the church this afternoon. Nothing serious I don’t think, so I grabbed a few shots of their well-kept cars while they were in the parking lot. The other is one of the motorcycles…

  • Eagle Fun Days

    Eagle Fun Days

    We went out to the Eagle Fun Days Parade this afternoon and somehow we managed to stay dry. It had only stopped raining shortly before the festivities began, and the parade ended as it does every year, with a giant water fight. My family and I stepped away to avoid getting soaked and I’m glad…

    My family went downtown tonight to check out the Food Truck Rally on 4th and Grove Street. The smells were great and there was no shortage of good eats. My favorite was the pulled pork sandwich from Brown Shuga Soul Food. After stuffing ourselves a bit, we walked around town for a while admiring the buildings and…

    Nampa Medical Office Building

    I had my camera with me today so I took a few pictures of the building I’ve been working on before I left. These are actually handheld HDR pictures. If you’re new to the concept of HDR, or high dynamic range photography, be sure to check out Trey Ratcliff’s tutorials on how to do it…

  • From Above ISU In Pocatello, Idaho

    From Above ISU In Pocatello, Idaho

    A few weeks ago I went to work in Pocatello Idaho for a few days. Not the most exciting place to be, but it proved to have some beautiful sights to see after all. There is a hill in the south center of the city, just adjacent to the Idaho State University. On one of the…

  • Great Quotes by Ansel Adams

    Great Quotes by Ansel Adams

    A good photograph is knowing where to stand. A great photograph is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed. A photograph is usually looked at – seldom looked into. A true photograph need not be explained, nor can it be contained in words. Dodging and burning…
