Standing on the Ross Island Bridge, camera on tripod, trying to capture tasty views of Portland as the temperature dipped below 10°C and my fingies started getting cold.

I think I delivered. Even while jerks honked at me.

Thanks for seeing my work!

It’s not always about the gear that makes a good photographer. It’s about applying the basics, and excelling at them while also using your own eyes, heart and mind to think what, when, and where a good shot might be . A lot of cool shots are just about timing and being in the right place.

Some of my best shots were spontaneous days I didn’t have planned. I’m not disabled, but I am in chronic pain, which zaps energy I have sometimes where I’d like to go out but end up unable to. I just mean to say I’m glad you did go out for this shot and I hope you keep that passion going. Good luck in your photography class, those are usually very fun classes!
