Fotobug - Elusive Image Photography

Highlights of Payne’s Prairie Preserve State Park in Florida for photography

Out of The Fotobug vault!  Back in 2017, Jim conducted a lightpainting workshop at the Black Hills Photo Shootout at the Western Heritage Center in Spearfish, South Dakota.  This is an important technique for capturing parts of large objects, such as the one room schoolhouse, and then assembling the layers in Photoshop.

Jim and Fred set out to do a complete review of the new Arsenal 2, but despite their best efforts, they weren't able to get it to work.  The reason was due to the fact neither one bothered to watch the instructional videos and read the manuals!  Big mistake!  So, this is a first look at the Arsenal 2 and a full review will be presented in the near future - stay tuned!!

Jim recently traveled to New Mexico to attend a workshop with Rick Sammon and Ian Plant at Bosque Del Apache.  This location is highly recommended for anyone who loves to photograph birds.  Thousands and thousands of snow geese and sandhill cranes gather in the ponds around Bosque and Bernardo Wildlife area.  Birds tend to gather at dusk and then 'blast off' at sunrise for the most amazing site you have ever seen!
