hand-crafted
As noted elsewhere, I shoot and build panoramics using the GigaPan system (both equipment and software). Even though there are a lot of less expensive options (especially if you like do-it-yourself projects), I prefer being able to count on these tools to provide consistent results…particularly when a client is involved. One of my clients, the [...]
a night at the track

by the pool
What a blast, shooting by the pool at the W&M Rec Center!
