To catch the dew on the grass like this you have to get up fairly early in the morning.

As every one who knows much about photography Leica is a world renowned Camera manufacture. Though this day and age a lot of there "new" products are still dated by todays standard. Even with that in mind the Co. has managed to stay afloat as well as there own.

If you know Leica Cameras very well you will notice

Or think you notice a few things and differences that you have not seen on previous Leica's. Feel free to leave you Thoughts and comments.

Thank you and God Bless,

An Olympus Get together in Iowa?
Yes It actually happened 6 Olympus photographers got together with what was probably the largest collection of Olympus gear in Iowa including any camera shop. We went out armed With 5 digital Olympus cameras, 8 OM Cameras, and 27 lenses. 27 lenses in one location right in the middle of Iowa. A site that few ever get a chance to see. In fact it was the first time I had ever seen any thing close. We went to the Spalding Factory to start the Day of photography and socializing off. Then we were off to Silver Creek Which is a preserve for wild flowers, grass and many verities of prairie grasses. Silver Creek is Maintained by the Audubon Society.

My Olympus E3, 12-60 lens and a FL50R (with a stoffen cap for diffusion) fired off Camera.
It is one of my favorite set ups to go out shooting with. Because with a pair of cargo paints I can carry enough gear to cover so many different situations.

It was also a great Day to try and practice on some Bee in flight skills. A area of photography that I have not quiet mastered, however I am getting better at it.
After Silver Creek we were off to Rock Creek Ia State Park. Rock Creek has recently added this Section of preserved prairie land.



Rock Creek as you can see is another great location for wild life and flora galore.
With such a rich photographic area I never even made it off the main path before it was time to break for lunch. However before we went to a late lunch we had to get a group photo. I set up the E3 on my tripod fired it by wireless remote, with a Metz 54 to camera right on a stand with the Glad Box for diffusion Fired wireless with my Elenchrom Skyport.



Here is a photo of the six of us, From left to right Paul, Joel, me, Gordon, Ken, And Michael.

For today's photo I chose one of our oldest daughter, Bella. This was taken on the boat dock at 3 Bridges County Park in Marshall County Iowa.

Do you ever wonder where a road that you see in a photography leads to? Although the title to this entry says road to nowhere this road really does lead some where.

I now have two blogs almost all the way redone. I just have some links to finish up on with the

NavBars and some galleries to get put together and up on my web site so I have some good stuff to show off. So got to stay busy more to come soon.

Happy fourth of July. I took this photo some time back but it is one that is really enjoyed be many so I thought I would share it here as well.

Most people enjoy old barns and I was out shooting some landscape when I came across what I thought


was an old barn until I got closer. That is when I realized that it was an old house right in the middle of the field. Being in the middle of the field was just a little odd, Considering that I am used to seeing livable houses being destroyed just for the extra field space. So to leave a house that is not even able to be rebuilt in the middle of a field that has to be planted around.







Thanks for looking and comments are always welcomed.

I had to go to the Chicago area for the weekend. One of the Jobs I went up for was a Photograph of the City Skyline. The Photograph is going to be used as a panoramic for a Sub City. The End product is going to be around 14 feet long be 30 inches tall.


This is just a sample shot that I took.
I got some good advice from a friend to take the photos from the Adler Planetarium.
So that is what I paned on and from



What you can see I had a really good turn out.



For the Panoramic I am taking aver 20 photos and blending them together to create a very High resolution single image that should have a close viewing distance as well as huge.
This is a small sample of the finished product but is less then 1% of the actual size of the finished picture.


Thank you for taking the time and if you have any Questions or comments just please use the comments, I will try to answer them all here.

Well Just because I have not posted anything does not mean that I have not been doing anything.
I have been very busy and trying to get free time to shoot for my self let alone follow through and get every thing up loaded and then post about it. I have been taking a lot of pictures and and staying very busy. Both with regular clients and the family, who would have thought that only one more child could add that much more work. I have been busy enough taking photos that I have almost filled 3 750 GB hard drives and a 500 GB as well. Here is a photo that I really like how it turned out.

I took this photo while teaching a workshop here in Iowa and it is one of those scenes that was not intended but just happened.
The goal was

Get up early and be set up lake side by 6:30 A.M. to teach how to take a sunrise photo. However when we got up it was nothing but fog so the lesson plan changed from sunrise over the lake to fog on the lake. This particular photograph was taken at F 9 1/50 s at ISO 100. All in all it was a very productive morning with many great photographic opportunities with many great photographs captured.

A photo taken in Tama Iowa that can really grab your eye with such contrast of colors.



I always like red on blue so I think


that this just works on these beautiful days the silver is a bonus.
You usually never think of pigeons being photographed unless it is in some large city park setting so I think it is nice to try and show them in other settings as well.
Enjoy and God Bless.

Some People just envision the mid west as the Great plains and completely flat.



Well Here in Tama Co Iowa right in the middle of the Mid West it is not flat at all. Granted we do not have

any mountains. What we do have is some breathtaking rolling hills. Hills that can be used for fields but also have a way of dancing with the shadows of the clouds and yet the ability to meet the sky and touch the Sunsets.



They also have the ability to hold a farm and protect it from the driving wind.
Thanks for stopping by enjoy and God Bless.

While at the Blank Park Zoo in Des Moines we did get to see one breed of our grabby little friends.



I am not familiar with this particular breed, he like most little monkeys are very curious and wants to

automatically start checking every thing out. It did not take this little guy very long to come over and check us out.



As soon as he did he was right to the point of letting us know that he was checking us out not the other way around.






It did not take him very long at all to figure out that he wanted to check out my camera as well. As I can not blame him if I am near a camera I tend to try and pick it up as well. Camera stores love that habit, The person sitting next to you at a graduation noticing you eyeballing their camera is more then just uncomfortable.
Anyways that is a whole other story.
While taking photos this little guy starts trying to grab my camera, It is a really cool camera so like I said I can not blame the little guy.



Well once he figures out I am not going to let him have my Camera you guessed it he just took off.



And here I thought he came over to check us out, nope I see his ploy now it was just a play for the camera. With agile moves, cute as could be he did make a good run at it. However he will have to try some one else. Plus there is no way my camera could have fit back through that fence.
Enjoy and God Bless.

Ok I know I can be a little strange at times and this picture may not help my plead for sanity.



I have always had a fascination of playing in the water and still do. So when I see something neat in the water I am automatically drawn to it. I took this photo because of how the


light was deflecting and falling on the rocks. And as you look close see how many shapes you can find. You know like we all use to do laying on our backs looking at the clouds. If you have never laid on you back looking at the clouds trying to find shapes, faces and so on then you really need to because you are probably to wound up or just uptight. There is a reason that the title of this photo has Frogs in it see how many you can find.

Wind mills were a staple of our growing farms back when farming was about the only industry in Iowa. Being used for many things from pumping water to powering tools. Today we are starting to see Huge colossal wind mills popping up and now their main purpose is to use the wind to generate electricity.



That is enough about wind mills on to the photo today is a picture of an old wind mill that is still standing in Tama Co Just East of Toledo Iowa. I took this photo just after sunset making a nice silhouette. Now I have a problem

I think the photo needs to be Color to really work. However I showed it to my Wife as a B&W and she informed me that is what works for this photo.




So for today and to appease I will post both the color and the B&W. If you would like to comment on which one you like better please do (I know you will say the Color version).
Enjoy and God Bless

One thing about Wild life Photography is it can have as much excitement as it can be boring. Here in Tama County Iowa we have such an over population of deer it is so much easier to capture good photographs now compared to 10 years ago.



Even though it may be easier you still need


to be prepared. One way is to try and always be ready to take a photo even if you do not have anything in sight. You just never know when something is going to come running over the hill towards you or sneak up from behind you. Also you need to be prepared to be outside for long periods of time. It really does not take that long to get frost bite or worse if you get to far out and are ill equipped. So always make sure you take the time to be prepared. Let some one know where you are going and when you will be back.
Your comments and feed back are always welcomed

I think here in the Mid West is one of the best places to photograph geese.



I particularly like Marshalltown and Tama Iowa for quick easy access areas where the birds are wild enough


that they do not look tame on film. As well as use to people enough that you can get close enough to get a reasonable photo at times. The two love birds above got a little uncomfortable with my prescence so they decided to fly out to the Ice shelf giving me the opportunity I was waiting for.

I went for a drive while all the girls were sleeping and found some really nice scenic views as well as some wild life.



After taking a photo I turned to get back into the jeep and I seen this sitting back in the woods. It is an old corn crib. It looks like

It has been there for decades and realistically probably has. I have not seen a corn crib of this style sense I was a boy and even that one was a more modern design.
I just automatically got lost in the scene with the way the the sun gave it just enough accent to catch my eye but no matter how you look at it you know it is from a time long forgotten and that will only be vaguely remembered through years of memories and growth.

I thought I would share one of my favorite bands with every one. They are very easy listening and can just be pleasing to the soul.


Even here in Central Iowa we can get be exposed to all kinds of music. This Australian

Band takes Psalms and sings them. As some people know the Psalms are made up mostly of songs and poems so it is only natural that some should be sang instead of read.


I hope you enjoy and if you would like to find out more you can visit Sons of Korah's web site here and they have links to their facebook and myspace as well as more samples of their music and tour dates.
Enjoy and God Bless.

Ever look at winter in B&W. I think only certain feelings and looks can be expressed in B&W. I do not see many winter photographs in B&W but I really like the outcome when done right. Today is another short day I am working on a few other projects and took the day off to calibrate a birthday.
Enjoy and God Bless
Corey Brown (Glory 2 Jesus 4 Photography)

Have you ever tried taking some landscape and winter scenery photographs just to have them all come out dark and gray or blue.



I know I have and I can tell you what causes that and better yet how to fix it.

So what exactly causes the photo above to be dark and gray. It is a mixture of a couple of things. The first is how the camera meters the lighting. Since the snow is bright white the camera is thinking this is a light source and then adjusts the camera to expose as if the snow is a huge light. Now that explains why it is under exposed and it can also explain why the color can be off by so much. In a lot of P&S cameras and base DSLR's there is a snow setting which compensates for the exposure as well as the white balance. I know most people think well the snow is white how hard should it be for the camera to tell that.




Well the camera sees things a little differently then we and our eyes do. One thing is our eyes and brain automatically WB correct. The next is a camera is always trying to balance to 18% gray. Now this is where we come up with either blue, gray, or some other off color pictures and it will vary from camera to camera and the settings you are trying to photograph. Some cameras will see things literally. So on a clear day the camera will see the blue reflecting off the snow. Thus allowing your photo to have a blue tint to it. Realistically taking pictures in snow can be some of the most challenging situations for a camera. The first thing to do if you realize by reviewing your photos that they are dark or if your camera has a histogram and it is bunched up to the left is to add exposure. Once again this will vary from camera to camera but it is not uncommon to have to add +1EV to get a proper exposure. As for WB this will depend on if the sky is clear or over cast or a mixture. However, a good rule of thumb is in between 5500k to 6500k that should be your daylight and shade or cloudy WB. So do not be afraid to take control of your photos and change things. Auto on the camera is not always right and some times it is just way wrong.
So it is always a good idea to slow down take your time and make sure you get as much right in camera vs trying to fix it later and losing so much of your quality and detail.
I hope you find this helpful and as always feel free to leave your comments and feedback
Thanks and God Bless

Clang, Bang, Bounce coming from the bathroom. Sabrina And I jump up making a dash to the Bathroom as Sabrina rounds the corner laying eyes on the bathroom door she just starts rolling in laughter.



My mind goes from racing What in the world in fear to shear confusion. Then I see

my precious oldest daughter jumping in to mom's arms with her first self done make up job. While mom and dad had our backs turned Bella had gotten into the bathroom and gotten into mom's makeup to administer her first make over.

This photo was taken on the Iowa River of of HWY 63 on the south side of Tama Iowa.



This is one of those photos that is familiar to you if you look at many photos. Granted that is not what I usually want to go for in my photography. However, in this case it is a photo that I never tire of. I will do a little write up about photography in the snow here soon so I will cover this photograph and others like it.

As a kid I remember always having a fascination with icicles. Even after "growing up" I still have certain fascinations with winter and the beauty that comes with it.

Here in central Iowa (Tama / Toledo) We have some very cool winters. Giving the ability to find things like this ice flow outside your back door. This shot was taken


rite before sunset and the sky was just breath taking, so I had to incorporate that into the photograph. To do this I used the on camera flash to fill on the ice set the shutter speed at 250th and this allowed me to run an aperture of in between F10-F13 all at ISO 100.

That is right this is my youngest daughter already 4 months old and growing like a weed in ever way. I took

This photo was taken while Jenna was playing in her exersaucer. I did use flash with an Omni style defuser and just bounced it. She is great to photograph with endless expressions and very happy.

I am going to start a Picture of the day series just to help share some of what I am shooting and how I practice my photography.



Not every thing I share will be professional work and some will be from my private family life. My Family is one of the biggest reasons I love photography so much. So it is no wonder that they are my most photographed subjects. Not all photos are going to be from that day and some will have as much as a 14 day delay for the simple fact I do try and keep my skills sharp by shooting film manually. This Picture was taken In between the Meskwaki Indian Settlement and Tama / Toledo Iowa.

In the distance you can see the Meskwaki water tower as the January sun sets in Tama Co Iowa.

Smugmug has long announced that they were going to be integrating a new Pro lab. In fact they have been saying this for about a year. Well it looks like it may come to pass. A few clues have been given to me by David Jay and Andy Williams. The first clue is:

That they met in California last week for a few hours. The next clue is that they will be with the new pro lab at WPPI Feb. 14-19. Well if you look at the floor plan of WPPI booth 1525 is Smugmug right next to it is 1519 which happens to be a Pro Lab. This same lab is located not too far from the physical address of Smugmug. One is in Santa Cruz, the other in Mt. View. If you do not know where they are here is a map

View Larger Map
So you want to know what Pro Lab is in Santa Cruz, CA? It is Bay Photo. Now keep in mind this is pure speculation and I am only going by clues and could be wrong but we will see before the 14th of Feb.

Last time I discussed how passion for your camera can tie in to the passion of a photographer. In part 2 I am going to discuss your photographic passions and putting them to work.



How does a photographer use their passion to make money?

A lot of professionals become professionals because they have a passion for photography. However, not many professional photographers have a passion for the photography they do. (I know this sounds confusing but stick with me.) Most “professionals” do not have any passion for the field of photography they try and make money in. Have you ever seen a wedding photographer that can charge $5,000 + per wedding? (Yes) How about the photographer charging $500.00 to do weddings and giving all the photographs on a CD for their client? (yes) I can tell you that the average bride hiring a photographer would love to know why one photographer can charge 10x the amount than the other guy. The answer is fairly simple.
A photographer charging 10X the amount has mastered something the other guys have not. The funny thing is, it is not all skill that makes the price increase. In fact the technical skill level between the two is not that big of a gap some times let alone a 10X price gap.

Just because a photographer is doing weddings or portraits or what ever their money making photography is, does not always mean they have a passion for that field . Does this mean that all photographers who do not have a passion for their field are bad photographers? (NO) What it means is some/(Most) photographers find an area to make money to support their passion.

Lets go back to the wedding photographer that charges 10X the amount and why this is justifiable. The first reason could be that their passion of photography is wedding photography. Another reason is they have managed to establish their passion and incorporate it into their wedding photography. The latter here is harder to find, however, they are a very skilled and diverse photographer.

Just because some one is passionate about photography does not mean that they are a successful photographer. On the contrary, most people who have a passion for photography ever become successful. Realistically most fail. It can become a stumbling block when all your focus is in an area of photography that you have no passion for. However, the photographers that are passionate and successful look at things in a different light.

I will use my self as an example to help illustrate what I am trying to say. I do a lot of portrait, life style and environmental photography to make my money. However, I am passionate about landscape scenery and in the moment people photography. The reason people hire me to do their portraits is not because I am a better portrait photographer per-say. The reason is I have to include my passions into all of my photography to be able to produce my best photography.
Here is an example. This is an on location portrait.


This is another taken on location.



So what makes these photos special? It is the style. I am not only taking a portrait. If you look at the first photo I am taking a landscape photo that happens to have a portrait in it. Since landscape photography is one of my passions I always try and mix my passion with my business photography. If you look really closely to the very first photo in this article, to the family portrait, you will notice that this is the same location. This is also one of my favorite spots for wildlife trails and scenic photography. Most people who visit this location never see it the same way my photographs show it. The is because I am mixing my passion with my work. I am willing to shoot at dusk and dawn because I know at those times what kind of scene will come out.

One of the tricks to being a passionate and successful working photographer is to incorporate your photographic passion into your"work" photography. If you can not incorporate what you love about photography into the type of photography you make a living with; you should go out and shoot at least once a week just for yourself. Why shoot once a week for yourself? Simple, to keep doing what you love and to keep growing in the area of photography that you love. This in turn will make it easier for you to find a way to mix your passion with your work; making your photography natural and something you love to do. Your clients and future clients will see this and want to work with you just for those reasons.
Thank you and God Bless,

Photography can be a Passionate art. However looking around at how many people have cameras and how many passionate photographers there are, the numbers do not even come close to matching. In today's world of photography I do not see very many photographers (Professionals included) that do have a passion for photography. So to start this series off I am going to go over a few different Passions in photography and the first one I am going to discuss is one that very few people know even if they rely on it. It is
the camera experience. Now stay with me because some things may be revealed to you. What is the camera experience? Lets take a look at 1st how we use our cameras. It is hard if not impossible to use a camera that is uncomfortable in your hand as well as up to your eye. So how much conscience thought does one person put into how the camera feels. I think the more passionate photographer either puts a lot of time or very little. Let me explain, If someone is upgrading to a different model they may dwell on the feel of the camera a very long time. If it is a purchase of a camera that has been designed to feel like an old friend then it is only a quick once in my hand I know you (the camera) and we have already been through a lot before I even take a photograph with you. So the feel of a camera will make the difference between I always want you in my hand VS. were can I sit this down or it is always in my pocket. If you like having the camera in your hand you will take more photographs and in turn become a better photographer. The next thing is sound. Sound you say? That is right, the sounds of a camera are part of your experiences with your camera. Lets start looking at a few examples. Take the Olympus E-1 for example, it is a 4 year old digital camera and by today's consumers standards the E-1 is obsolete. However the Olympus E-1 has a very strong following of people who have not and will not upgrade because they feel the upgraded models are not adequate updates. The first thing is the feel which I covered above. The next though is the sounds. If you ever hear an E-1 shutter it is very unique and very quiet, just a soft click whir. None of the Olympus models since have had a shutter as quiet or as short. The Olympus E-3 is different by feel and shutter sound it has a soft ca click however not as soft as the E-1. How do I know shutter sound is that important to a passionate photographer because when the Olympus E-3 came out many people were doing shutter comparisons for others to hear. This is one of many examples on the web if you just google the camera model you are interested in followed by shutter sound will usually bring up some audio as well as some video files for your enjoyment.

11:30 P.M. I here whoo whoo and think that is an Owl but I live in town. In the past two years of living in Toledo, Iowa I have never seen or heard an Owl around here. So I jump up Throwing my boots and jacket on and grab my Trusty E3 with 50-200 swd lens attached and throw the FL 50 R flash on top.

I run (walk) out the door and listen. Sure enough I hear Whoo Whooo and then a little further south Whoo Whooo. There was not just one owl but two. After just a minute I was able to locate
the one closest to me. So I get a good focus and start to slowly walk closer. He knows I am there and checks me out once in a wile but does not seem to concerned that I am getting a little closer.


As I aproach the tree that the Owl is in he starts showing sings of being nervous at about 20 yards from the tree. He knows that I am there so I take a shot. Drats it is a little to dark so I push the flash 2 stops to help with the reach and adjust the Iso to 640 giving me a little more room and shutter speed. This way I was able to keep the shutter at a 250th. I take another photo, not a bad shot just he was not looking at me. Then he shows He is really uncomfortable and starts to ruffle his feathers. So I quickly take another photo (the top one) and sure enough he said that is enough and leaves. Swooping down the first 15 feet leaving me very little chance to get an in-flight shot. I really would have liked to been able to get a owl in flight at night but no such luck. Maybe Next time.

What do you do when you are feed up with being in the house all day watching the kids and trying to get work done. (If anyone does not know getting work done with kid is usually a losing battle on all fronts.) So as soon as I could get out of the house I did. Unfortunately this was after dinner around 7:00 P.M. In a small town such as Toledo Iowa where I live every thing is pretty dead in the evening.


With the streets being empty gave a great opportunity for some long exposure night photography. So that is


exactly what I did. Night time street photography can be a lot of fun. However there are some challenges that do come with it. One is the street lamps and the color cast they put off to me is just ugly and if you WB (white balance) correct for the lights the scene can look unnatural. That is why B&W can be nice in this kind of shooting not only can it give you more leniency with your WB but it also can give your photography a more dramatic feel.


To achieve the photo above it has to be a long exposure night shot. by shooting it this way instead of a high ISO shot I get a very clean photograph that you can see the light on the snow all the way up the street. Giving the photo above a lot of depth.


This photo has a lot more light to the overall scene. As you can see there does not seem to be as much depth however it has other benefits. The lights in the garland are not blown out and ugly they to me have a very nice timeless feel. I also used a unique composition to draw more effect out of the lines not only with the strings of lights but the single middle of the street traffic light as well as the building behind. In photographs like these it is hard to get the full impact at such a small size so feel free to visit the Gallery and check them out in full detail.
So next time you go for a walk take your camera. If it is after dark then grab the tripod as well Image Stabilization will not work for this kind of photography.
I hope you have learned a something and feel free to leave your feedback and comments.

Last week a friend of mine & I went to Lake Red Rock in Pella Iowa to try and Photograph eagles. Usually Lake Red Rock is a Very popular place for many birds this time of year. However This particular day there were no eagles to be found anywhere. The wind had came in on our way down from Grinnell and was blowing at 30+ mph with gusts of 45mph. However the birding was not a complete loss from across the river south of the damn some birds spotted us.

And came over to visit. So we proceed to try and take photos in such high




Winds. As you can probably tell from the water in these photos that it was very windy.

After coming across the river it did not take long for them to come on up and check things out. I do not know the particular breed of these birds They have some similar markings of a white-fronted goose however they do not seem to have enough black on their breasts and their bills look different.

After coming a shore they started looking for food. Since this is a public park area it is not unusual for people to feed the birds. However something a little unusual happened a pair found a piece of bread and stood side by side taking turns eating the bread. They did not honk charge or show any aggressive behavior to one another. I found this very intriguing.


After a few minuets of searching for food and successfully clearing the area they started to do their normal cleaning. It was not long before they were comfortable enough with us that they were almost posing.


The sun came out just enough for a nice back lighting making some very nice portraits.
All in all not bad for 30+ mph winds and what was beginning to look like a bust for shooting.
If you would like to see more photos and larger then the above you can check them out HERE.
