A Day (or two) in France

November 8, 2015

Just returned from time in Paris and Brittany. Weather was as good as you could want, and my basic French seemed to work out well despite the laughter it often generated. Thought you might like to see a few snaps from the trip. Traveled with some first-time-to-France folks so had to show them some of the old-faithful sights.

Hope all’s well with all of you.

Weekly Photo Tip

Take the center column away

A definite Sign of Spring.

If your tripod has a center column, you will want to remove it before getting down to photograph spring flowers. Even with a 100-180mm focal length macro lens, your tripod will be too far from the subject. There are two options: 1. purchase a tripod with a removable center column or 2. just purchase a tripod that never had a center column. Of these two choices, I’d opt for the first one.

About Jack

A classically trained musician since childhood, Jack Carlson always had the “ear” of an artist. It was only a short step to develop the artist’s “eye” as well.

The portfolio of this certified photographer reveals images that emphasize mood and composition. Their purpose is to present a feeling in addition to portrayal of person, place or thing. Sometimes that feeling is nostalgia; other times it is serenity.

Each photograph tells a story.
