First time I’ve seen something like this and gives you a pretty humbling sense of the scale.

This was the first time I’ve used MF for long exposures (or for that matter night photography or even on a tripod). Worked out ok.

About 6 weeks ago work suddenly exploded here in Seattle and I’m *just* starting to get my head above water. When work comes in hard like that, I tend to go one of two ways with photography – either I do it even more as an outlet, or I don’t even look at a camera for weeks. This experience has been somewhat in between as I was planning on doing nothing but ended up doing a fair bit of my dog charity work. I think i mentioned this before but basically i do two things here – photos of dogs who are with foster parents and need rehoming (the photos really increase their chances of adoption), or professional shoots where I donate the proceeds to a local charity. Both are great and its been a while since I’ve posted anything so I’ll dig out a small collection and put them here.

While I was away, it was great to see my community site Lost in Focus doing so well with some amazing work getting posted. It’s so motivating and inspriing to know that while I’m running back and forth trying to get stuff done for work, amazing art continues to be produced. It was actually Kaden’s mid-year check in post that made me realise I need to start posting here again quickly. I loved reading the comments on that (and will reply shortly).

So I have a few pics to share – mostly of mutts – and I’ll start with the final images of my mini weekend away in April. These were the final four images from that Oregon trip.

The first two are of Rio (my rottweiler). The second two are of Sora (my blind lab), “looking” out to see. All shots with Pentax 67ii.

Only made it to the Northern tip and we hung out there for a couple of days. For those who are amused by others [near] misfortune (i am), you’ll be glad to know we got into a bit of a pickle when I left the car ignition on while sitting reading for an hour or so. Had my phone connected over bluetooth, mp3′s playing, heated seats on… within what felt like no time, the car electronics ‘rebooted’ and i found i couldn’t start the car. A mild wave of mixed panic and amusement washed over me when i realised the tide was coming in and within a couple of hours would be pounding the car. Fortunately i got in touch with emergency services who did a great job in getting out onto the beach to jump start the car.

Funny. Sort of.

Anyway… i’m still way behind on all your work but a weekend of relaxing and photography should get me back in the mood. Here’s Rio.

I took one shot of an elk up close and this ended up being one of my favourites. I’d love for anyone who has a few mins to spare to swing by the full series on my gallery.
