“Wow, Edward, look at the real camera” was all I needed to hear to get me to turn my head. A little man and his mom were seated at a table looking at Nikon Z9. Next thing you know I am kneeling down showing Edward, age 2, his first real camera. He was smiling ear to ear and very

Hey guys, Paul, Mr Big Shot Pro Photographer, here with another photo tip of the day. Actually just another funny anecdote from my journey through life. Look for my podcast "Tales of the Photo Monkey" coming soon.

Thanks Lea. Funny story about this one. VP JD Vance and the White House decided that the press photographers were a serious threat. They wouldn't allow us to be in front of the graduates, between them and the stage, to capture the shot from the best angle, like we have for

Whoever shot this pic from the Phillies vs Mets game last night, kudos to you. I've been searching the internet to credit the shooter but can't find the name. Sad it is everywhere with no credit. Awesome play and shot.

This Saturday, June 28, 2025, marks the seven years since a gunman took the lives of our five Capital Gazette family members. He nearly took the lives of six others and brought grief to countless people. Lives were forever changed. I ran into Rachael Pacella a couple weeks ago

Truly a sad day for me. I had to cancel my Adobe Adobe Photoshop Adobe Creative Cloud Creative Cloud Pro subscription. I've been using Photoshop since 1996 Version 4, maybe earlier through working at different papers. I bought my first personal copy for my home computer around 2007's

I saw a clip from Marvel's Wandavision the other day and it made me think of old TV shows I'd like to live in. Bewitched popped into my head. Samantha was hot. I would definitely let her use her powers. I would encourage it. I think Endora would have loved me. The entire family
