Fresh October air

I think Gavin and I picked the best day to go camping in October. If we went any earlier, the trees wouldn’t have been as colorful. If we went any later, it would have been a little chilly.We had perfect weather, beautiful scenery and water that wasn’t too cold. It’s always nice getting in touch with nature. This year, our adventure started somewhere near Eminence, MO. Once we found the drop off point, we quickly got on the river. Shortly […]

I wanted to shoot at two or three frames per second (fps) but my computer’s intervalometer only allowed me to shoot down to five fps. I started in […]

I set all of the settings on the computer screen. After I was content with my capture settings, I […]

A breath of fresh(?) air

Ordinarily, after spending many days inside your home with few trips out, a day spent outside is a breath of fresh air. That is unless you go to the zoo where the aroma of animal poop reigns king. I went to the St. Louis Zoo with one thing in mind – see every single animal that the standard free admission would allow. I wanted to spend as much time out of my house as possible. The day was filled with […]
