In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve posted a pretty good sample of pictures on my website, wanderinglightphotography.com.  All the good pictures from the first month and the first couple of days of July are posted in the RMSP category shown on the home page.  I’ll probably be posting most images there from now on and only post blog images or images from my phone on Flickr.

Looking at what I’ve taken so far, I realized I don’t have many wide panoramic type shots of the mountains yet.  I need to work on that I think.  I may have to head up to Glacier this weekend.  We’ll see.

In other news, I’ve declared that I’m not spending any more money on photography equipment this summer.  I just spent another boat load on a carbon fiber tripod and new tripod head.   My old tripod is just too heavy to carry on long hikes.  I needed something lighter.  My new Gitzo tripod only weighs 2.1lbs plus another 1lb for the tripod head.  My old tripod legs weighed more than that themselves not including the head.  I think I cut the weight in half with this purchase…and probably my bank account as well…just kidding. I still have plenty of money left for the summer and fall.  But I won’t if I keep upgrading gear, so I’m done…for now. :)

I’ll be back in the studio tomorrow shooting still life…

Tomorrow night, we have a guest speaker: Peter Read Miller.  You’ve probably seen his work if you’ve ever picked up Sports Illustrated.  I think he’s going to talk to us about sport photography…just a guess.
