In Defense of Pretty Pictures

11 Feb

As someone who take pictures with a very critical eye, it’s easy to put not only by own work but the work of others under a very critical magnifying glass. As the ups and downs of life pass by like the ebb and flow of the tide it’s refreshing to take a step back and just enjoy a pretty picture for what it is. Doing so is a sure fire way to lift one’s spirits, regain more level headed thinking and remember why I took an interest in photography in the first place.

Here’s to all the pretty pictures! Thanks for the inspiration and positive energy.

25 Jan

Last week, Fujifilm teased a new, apparently high-end X-series camera. Inevitably this has lead to a flurry of new rumors, much speculation about the camera’s specification, and now a slew of product photographs courtesy of Japanese site digicame-info.com, apparently showing an ‘X-T1’. At this point, we’re not sure whether Fujifilm will have anything new to announce when the camera finally gets officially launched. Click through for a taste of what’s (probably) coming up.

10 Pictures from 2013 Missouri River 340 Race

14 Aug

Sea Wind canoe on Kaw River
My Sea Wind canoe on the shore of Kaw River 20 minutes before the race start.

Missouri American Water MR340 is a paddling race across the entire state of Missouri – 340 miles nonstop in less than 88 hours from Kansas City to St Charles. The 8th edition of the race took place July 23-26, 2013.

It was my 7th MR340 race, and the third one paddled self supported in Sea Wind canoe designed by Verlen Kruger. This year it took me 62:21 hours to finish – 38th place overall and 19th place in men’s solo division (142 boats), see race results. I had a pretty good race. Sea Wind allowed me to to run long river sections up to 12 hours of paddling without any stops.

Here is a selection of 10 pictures from the race, all shot with Pentax Optio WG2 camera. I will be writing more technical reports and commentary in my Fitness Paddling blog where you can find a lot of information on previous MR340 races starting from the very first one in 2006.
