2011 Line for Looptworks
On Thursday the 8th of July did a commercial photo shoot for LooptWorks on the Oregon coast; we shot on the Cape Lookout Trail. We photographed models wearing the 2011 LooptWorks clothing line. The images from the shoot are of the 2011 line so for now they are hiding in the fog behind the trees for now. Here are a couple location shots from the day though that is all we are showing for now.

Panorama of Mount Hood
Took a break this afternoon and went out for a ride on my motorcycle. As I was riding past Bald Peak State Park (1,629′ elev.) a beautiful view of Mount Hood caught my eye. I pulled into the park, stopped and removed an old Nikon D70s w/18-200mm, that goes with me on rides, from one of my saddle bags. I shot a few frames with a panoramic image in mind. When I back home I use Photoshop CS4 to stitch this pano together and exported through Zoomify.
Images captured data: 150mm, 1/320sec, F/11, iso 200

Women’s Club Sport Volleyball Tournament
I got the opportunity to shoot a few images of the Women’s Club Sport Volleyball Tournament last weekend at The Courts in Beaverton, Oregon. I used my Nikon D300, Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 lens and Sandisk digital film. Post processing was done with Lightroom 2, Photoshop CS4 and Nik Software plug-ins. Images got a contrast adjustment, tone adjustment, a bit of film grain and a very slight vignette.
