Well, last week we went to the Arizona Coyote’s home opener against the St Louis Blues and needless to say the Coyotes are in midseason form. It was a promising beginning when the they entered the 2nd period with a 2-1 lead but then Blues scored 5 goes in less than 10 min. Talk about…

Been taking a lot of photos of this park that is near my house. A beautiful a pond is right near our house and everyday there are ducks, geese, and doves that all meet up and relax pretty much. I figured what better way to practice taking some shots then using the situation as an…

I took some nice shots of the moon last night. For the photographers who follow, I used my Canon EOS rebel T6 with a 75 MM lens. The setting was on 1/100-1/200, F was between 8 and 11, and my ISO was on 100. I was able to come out with some clear pictures. I…

This letter was written by Abraham Lincoln to Mrs. Bixby that was for condolences on the loss of her son during the Civil War. The Speech was actually read by Former President Bush at ground zero some years ago. It just felt appropriate with how I feel about the loss of loved ones. Washington, Nov.…

I had always loved to take pictures. Since I was young when we had those disposable cameras, I loved to take pictures. About 5 years ago, I began to develop more of a passion for it and had wanted to pursue it more. However, at the time I was in the military and didn’t have…
