This evening in Grants Pass there was a structure fire that started at about 7:45 pm across the street from the redwood nursery. Fortunatly the building had been vacant for some time.  I was down town, headed toward riverside park to meet some friends when I saw the Smoke coming from around the fairgrounds. One of the first fire trucks pulled out a block in front of me, I decided to follow the fire truck …

Im always a little bit to harsh on movies. Transformers 2 was pretty good. I dont think that its as good as the first one. but its still a pretty fun story. a little outlandish, but hey there are robot cars running around so ill let it slide. I feel like they would have been better off cutting out some of the “jokes” as they were not that funny and felt cheesy. ( for example …

  Yesterday I met Justin south of Corvallis at an abandon train. I was pretty surprised to see a train that is miles long left out in the middle of a field on a set of old train tracks. Took my camera and my camcorder. here is a clip. 

Some friends of mine had been planning on doing a trip like this for a while. We went to silver falls state park just east of Salem. We left Saturday morning at 10:00 am after picking everyone up. Stopped in Salem to get some supplies then drove the rest of the way to Silver falls. The trail we took was almost 9 miles long and took us by 10 water falls. Ive been to a …

  I have been using a podcast hosting service to host the podcast/radio show that I produce called OSU in Review.  The problem with the hosting service is that it is pretty unreliable.  Mypodcast.com is the service that I’m currently using; it has a limited amount of storage space for me to upload. I’m currently looking in to other solutions for me to host more podcasts. I’m thinking that I will begin to prioritize the …

  Met up with my friend Justin last night in Eugene Oregon. Today we went out and did a little rock climbing; I haven’t done much rock climbing since I was a kid. I’ve wanted to get in to climbing for a while but haven’t put enough time toward it. I went in this evening to the rec center at OSU, which is free for me to use,  and signed up for a quick belay and …

One of my favorite things about spring/ spring break is the weather finaly being good enough to start up the disc golf season. I remember a couple years ago every day after school my friends and I would Play no less then 2 games a day( as im writting this ray is next to me wanting to steal the cookies from dutch bros, back to the story) Good times. I was allot better then than …

Right now im currently on my spring break. So far im having a very good time. I went down to San Francisco with my dad on sunday and spent a couple days down there. The first time Iwas in San Francisco was last year about this time.  While in San Francisco I try to take advantage of the oppurtunity to take photos as much as I can.  Most of the time I like to shoot …

Im thinking about printing some photo enlargments of my better work. I found a place through campus that will do large format printing . It will cost but its not too much.

Ive been out shooting with my Nikon D1 over the past couple days. I really am getting to like the camera. I still have yet to go on an actual shoot with it, but besides the limited battery life feel that I could do very well with it. Im impressed on how well a 2.7 megapixel camera can do. I dont plan on doing any large format prints from the D1, my 6.1 megapixel D40 …

I have too many things and not enough skill.  This is a flaw that I have allowed myself to develop for a while.  As I look around I have everything that I want right next to me. Though what I am beginning to notice is that I have more gear then I have skill. I’m finding that it is going to be important for me to get better at the things I like and continue …

This last week I bought a nikon D1 online. The D1 was the first professional DSLR that nikon sold. This was back in 1999, Now that its ten years later the limitations of  the technology of the day are becoming more and more apperent.  the Nikon D1 was built with a 2.7 megapixel sensor, which compared to my D40 is less then half the resolution. Still for the price I paid for this camera , …
