PMA bound

pma_gear1
Tomorrow evening I fly out to Vegas for 3 days at the Photo Marketing Association’s (PMA) 2009 trade show. I’m all geared up with my Pentax K10D, new SanDisk 8GB Extreme III SDHC card and ExpressCard reader, custom printed business cards, and press badge. Unfortunately, my extra battery and battery grip look like they won’t get here in time. Shame.

I’m sure there will be plenty of coverage for the big name products. Rather than just add to the noise, my plan is to blog about the products I find most interesting. Hopefully this will add a slightly different perspective to the show coverage than the typical mainstream media coverage. Of course I’ll probably get caught up in any big announcements just like everyone else but I’ll do my best to find a unique angle to cover. Check back often for updates throughout the week.

BTW, thanks to the snow today for providing nice flat whitespace studio-like lighting for this shot:

Making lemonade out of lemons, my friends ;-)

Spam attack

I have added a captcha security function to the comments page on this blog. I have been getting spammed by a comment spammer for the last week or so and this is the best way to stop it. Please let me know if this creates any difficulty for anyone posting comments. I believe that if you register with my blog you will not have to use the captcha for future comments but I’m honestly not sure. Thanks!

PMA 2009 here I come!

PMA 2009 press credentials

I’m headed to North America’s largest photography show March 3-5 in Las Vegas. What do you want me to look for and/or find out??

Merry Christmas!

Christmas tree

Just a quick note to say Merry Christmas and thank you for your support. I started this blog less than 3 weeks ago and I have already had over 1,100 views! I hope everyone is enjoying this site and getting something out of it. I’ve got some new topics I’m working on that I’ll be posting over the next few days as time permits. Meanwhile, have a very merry Christmas, safe travels and take lots of pictures!

About

I'm an industrial designer and an avid hobbyist photographer. People are always asking me "how'd you do that?" So, I decided to create this site as a place to share my experiences and insights about photography, the gear and what it all means to me. I'm not sure if this site will make anyone besides myself a better photographer but I figure it's worth a try. Take a look around and let me know what you think. Thanks for stopping by!
