Wildlife Photography

Through my journey of leaning and improving my photography skills, I have come to have a great admiration for wildlife photographers. Wildlife photography has always been one of my interests but learning all that goes into a great wildlife shot was quite surprising. To have a wildlife photo that has great quality takes a high leave of skills and experience. Anyone can go to the zoo and take a picture of a grizzly bear on their iPhone, but it is completely different to go out and find a wild grizzly and get quality photos. I have recently started following a husband and wife who are mostly wildlife photographers. They do amazing work with big game animals in Colorado. What I like about their work is that they are willing to go the extra mile to get photos of wildlife that is not used to humans. I also appreciate that they are actively engaged with the conservation of the animals that they photograph and love. I have linked their instagram account below.  @goodbulloutdoors https:

The Magic of Replacing a Hard Drive

Image
The last few months my MacBook Pro has been running extremely slow. Granted it’s a 2015 model, but I couldn’t believe that it could possibly be this slow. I took all my photos off along with documents thinking that it needed to be “unclogged”, but that did not help at all. After researching different solutions and not being able to afford a brand new $1,200 computer at the moment, I decided to put a new hard drive in it. I put a 500 GB Solid State SATA Drive in and the results are amazing! My “old” computer is running as fast as it did when I first got it, over four years ago. A $80 hard drive saved me from buying a new $1,200 computer. Now I can open Adobe Lightroom so quickly and edit photos in a timely manner, which is making editing so much more enjoyable.

Moments Remembered by Photographs

Image
There has always been a deep love for the outdoors in my life. Recently, I went back home to New Mexico and spent five days up in the high mountains of the wilderness. I was elk hunting and ended up with an amazing bull, but there is so much more than just taking an elk. The thing I find most magical about these experiences is the lonely, but soul filled feeling of being tens of miles away from other humans. Words can not describe the beauty and rawness of the places we went, but photographs can help. I view photography as a way of helping capture and preserve moments that we wish to remember forever. Now these photographs do not portray the place or moment to it’s full extent, but as my mind slowly starts to fade away they help me remember what those moments felt like. I find myself extremely grateful for the ease and convenience of cameras in today’s day and age, because of all the moments I will be reminded of later.
