Father Son Photography

My son and I have had the privilege of photographing several National Parks. Our photographs were possible because others were willing to share their knowledge with us through books, magazines, and podcasts. It is now time for us to return the favor. We hope the information we provide about our equipment and techniques will help improve your photographic skills. If this is your first visit, please start reading from the bottom of the page. Happy shooting!

Crop Circles

Many people are choosing to display their photographs using an online service such as Flickr or Pbase. The majority of digital cameras take photographs at a width to height ratio of 4:3. There is no rule saying that the photographs displayed on the web have to be this ratio. You're free to crop the photographs as squares, panoramas, or any other shape you heart desires. Eric and I crop our photographs to the proportions that look good to us. It is only when we print them for framing that we are restricted to 5x7 or 8x10 or 11x14 or 16x20 crop ratios. Be creative with your cropping and you might even try circles. Get it, crop circles?
