    Nature Photos

    I took a trip to yosemite NP last week, in the first few days of the park's re-opening. The crowd was remarkably sparse for beginning of summer, uncanny even. Once in a lifetime opportunity to visit the park in this state. Felt very lucky, especially as an avid landscape and nature photographer...

    Nature Photos

    went to Trona Pinnacles this past weekend. The heat is no joke - it was 95d through the night and the wind was whipping up like crazy. Managed to take a few landscapes and astro photos I'm happy with will be processing and posting these next few weeks, as well as put together my first IGTV post...

    Gaia on Iphone with external GPS

    your iPhone will already have GPS so you won't need external. The GPS will work even with no cell service.

    Mosquitoes

    You could buy them locally (Big 5, Dicks, etc.). I got one from REI the other week.

    How to paint your rims easily

    Looks great! I've added the extra step of cutting open a big trash bag and tucking it behind the wheel, and over the calipers and rotors. Takes all about an extra 2 minutes per wheel. I know some would say that a little bit of overspray amounts to nothing, but the piece of mind is worth it in...

    Who overlands for the purpose of photography?

    Get up and out there! setup your tripod not far from your tent and you'll only be awake for a little bit. That's the purpose of the rig, right? To already be out to the prime spot (or at least as close as you can get)? If you get up and do it, you'll love it. If you don't, you'll regret it.

    Nature Photos

    Sure thing! I use a full frame Sony and all my astro starts at 16mm, f/2.8, 30 secs, ISO 3200, and shot in RAW. If I ever need to adjust the exposure of a scene the ISO is the only variable, the other factors are locked in. That makes life so much easier! I manual focus and have a 2 sec delay...

    Nature Photos

    I frequent coastal Newport Beach a lot and do a lot of photography at the place called Crystal Cove which is a CA State Park. Being so close to the beach I’d be missing out if I didn’t do a lot of coastal photography. Not overlanding but a drive drive down PCH is beautiful most of the time. I’m...

    Good DSLR for night pics?

    for night photos (especially astrophotography) I've found that the lens makes a bigger impact than the camera. you need one that is wide (smaller mm) and fast (lower f stop). on a budget you can do a used sony a6000 ($250-ish used) and a sigma 16mm f1.4 ($450 new). the tripod you already have...

    Who overlands for the purpose of photography?

    When I'm by myself I'll go out for photography and bring my truck with me, sometimes. Then I'll overland in my boots for a couple miles. I'm after that glade, that fell, that inversion, that milky way. How I get there is second to my destination. I've always gone solo - as I've not found...
