Old world, where are you?
» 27 Jan 2005, 12:52pm - 0 commentsExcerpt: If you're shooting a concert, for example, why not shoot 2 hours of 8 Megapixel images on your 4 Terabyte CompactFlash card, then pick the best ones on your PC later on? Kind of takes the "decisive" out of Henri Cartier-Bresson's "decisive moment".

B&S, Red Wings and lenses, oh my!
» 29 Nov 2003, 9:31pm - 2 commentsExcerpt: I was also struck by just how "normal" the entire band appeared: no rock and roll haircuts, no leather jackets or pants, and no wild stage antics, just a crew of talented musicians who look like they were plucked from a high school concert band. Made me feel like I could play for them!
