    Well – I’m very curious – the two models seem to have conflicted expressions on their face; hers seems to almost be malevolent (…or at least it doesn’t have the soft expression of concern), while his is mixed – not sure if he’s amused or concerned.

    I’m very curious – can’t wait to see the full piece Ben. I suspect the language will clear up any ambiguities I see.

    …and glad to hear you’re busy!

    Gotta add my dos pesos; stellar work Adam – love it all, but as others have said, that shot with the guy at the bow, the sun, mangrove – mmmmm good.

    Killer work there..

    Killer.

    I don’t think the metaphor will end up just like that, as navigation for typical “magazine” content will need to be less like playing a game, but that’s really compelling stuff, especially for possible product adverts.

    Really compelling.

    Loaded primo fast for me btw.

    I’m with Brain – used to regularly ice fish in Northern Minnesota, and regularly saw all kinds of crazy things happen in holes in the ice.

    When the lakes would become oxygen starved due to very thick ice combined with heavy snow (too dark to hold decent levels of O2 I guess), it wasn’t uncommon for minnows to show up in HUGE numbers in a hole in the ice, gulping air like crazy. In turn, you’d also see predators show up.

    I’m with the square crowd too – and also like the higher contrast version in the pano, so would like to see the square edited that way.

    dos pesos and all

    He’s killer good people.

    I saw him (sadly all to briefly) while down in Port Isabel for a Snook Foundation meeting (I’ve been suckered in to work with them here in Texas – sit on the board with 3 other guys). Had great meetings, and I think you’ll be pleased with the results.

    Loads of research going to happen here in Texas – should be great stuff coming out of it. Nicely, Eric will play a role.

    Good take on the white balance….the audio was all good here (not overblown)….and I wanna get back to Louisiana now! ย 

    respect ย  ย ๐Ÿ™‚

    …and – a question; the redfish video – was that Eric Glass guiding y’all?

    Disregard the question – hadn’t gotten to the end of the video. Nice to see Eric with that sheepie. Looks like you guys had a killer trip – no surprise with Eric guiding you.

    …unnecessary from a functional perspective, but from a aesthetic/artistic perspective….?

    I know what you mean though Zach – the technology is staggeringly cool. It’s making me lust for another body upgrade (have had 3 in the past 2 years).

    Do it – the yak is killer good for multi-day wilderness trips.

    I’m covering the Jacksonville tournament for Kayak Angler mag – the Rapid folks are sharp, and good to work with. I’m in fact hoping to get some snook shots next week for ’em, as we’re going to be down in the Brownsville Ship Channel chasing the suckers for a story my bud Aaron Reed is writing.

    As for Jim – they usually use a local when they’re shooting up there, as Will (videographer) is based up there, and knows folks. Lisa Utronki – she does nice work. ย ๐Ÿ™‚

    I damn near went to New Zealand with them – would have been just 2.5 weeks from now – had the airfare sorted out, but then had a logistics glitch jump out just a few days before I was going to buy airfare, and the deal was queered. Sucked, as they are going to have a *killer* couple weeks, with both deep sea and likely some awesome trout fishing. Argh – still hurts it didn’t work out, but what can ya do? That said, I think I have a couple of trips this spring shooting with them again, so I’ll take what I can get. ย ๐Ÿ˜‰

    As for Yellowstone – it still kills me that I was SO close, yet didn’t get to spend time in the park. Perhaps this summer. Glad to hear your life is sorting itself out – didn’t know you’d been going through a patch. I suspect time there would be good for the soul.

    in reply to: Waterproof Bags #70351

    Yeah – I knew you were committed John.

    I think those who are committed though should probably be committed.

    I honestly wonder how long these bodies and lenses are going to live – I work around saltwater all the time, and I *know* that salt, in spite of my attempts to clean even while shooting will eventually do its evil work.

    Blah – whatever, eh?

    Stay warm brother! Wet and cold – not a happy combo.

    in reply to: Waterproof Bags #70349

    Like the guys above, Pelican – but not just.

    I’ve also spent – wow – untold hours on the water in a kayak, with my camera “out” – but the lens hanging down into the open mouth of a dry bag. I then drape a towel over it when I’m paddling, but it’s out, so I can snag it for the shot.

    It only goes into the bag when it’s nasty (windy with waves/rain/etc), and when it goes into the bag it’s wrapped in the towel to pad it.

    It’s worked *very* well for me.

    I’ve done similar on the boat – as the bag I can hold whereas the Peli is a bit of a clunky beast, and generally requires stowage and retrieval, which means missing shots as you’re slowing, or taking off. Especially true when in big water.

    One thing I committed to early on is having my camera out. I *know* it’s going to cost me a body someday, but if the camera ain’t out the shot ain’t gettin’ takin’.

    Bravo Brett!

    What Zach said.

    …and then what Corey said – with regards to John’s last shot.

    in reply to: Hey Barnes – stop stalking me! #70231

    Figgered you might dig knowing it’s out there – again.

    Keep up the fine work sir.

    Another DIGGIT!

    in reply to: New IA Celebrity #70334

    I’ll add my ‘grats too.

    Nice to get a catalog and say “Hey, I know who shot that.”

    Well done sir.

    in reply to: Ducks, Geese, and New Lens #70195

    hmm would love to join, but I have a Snook Foundation board meeting in Port Isabel a couple days later – and – might be going to New Zealand just days after that to shoot for a couple weeks.

    BUT – I’ll be in touch – would love to sit in.
