Clear your calendar…

This post goes out to the folks in the Seattle region of Washington state.  The last time we had skies clear enough to get some good night shots, there wasn't a moon to light anything up.  Well, I have some good news.  Here is my forecast for Saturday (December 15th) night: The sun sets at...

latenyte.com and 2019

*Featured image was shot one afternoon when I was walking the beach at Salt Water State Park, WA. Let me get right to the point.  So far latenyte.com has gone from not knowing what to do because everything was new to me, to how did things get so unorganized so quickly.  That would be the...

Grab and Go Pack

So I just got home from the hospital. What a bunch of torture that was.  Bottom line from the last few days is I am going to have to start living the life of "NO".  I got six new prescriptions.  Will I tell the doctor if I cheat and have a piece of bacon, hell...

What is Black?

I was listening to the radio the other afternoon, and they were playing "Big Dummy".  It is a radio competition where you try to get one answer right.  You are the big dummy if you score the most incorrect answers.  One of the questions was, "What colorful body of water does the Danube River drain...

Latenyte Layout

To get a better idea how latenyte photography is providing it's information, I made a quick rough chart.  Right now we have information spread over five networks.  They all potentially have different information about latenyte and it's projects. Twitter - If you follow latenyte on Twitter, you will get updates about latenyte.com, ideas for shots,...

Custom Blogs on WordPress

Let me start by saying that as of September 7th, 2018, I had never blogged before.  I do have a little experience with HTML and have gotten by until I started latenyte.com.  Blogging was a completely new experience for me and something that didn't follow most of the rules I knew.  I wanted to blog...

Intermingled Hobbies…

I have the luxury of having a few hobbies that get intermingled with each other.  For over 30 years I have been a gold prospector/miner, rock hound and more recently an amateur treasure hunter.  I consider them intermingled because when I go out looking for the shiny stuff I always see things I want to...

Apps for Photography

Recently we went over timeanddate.com and it lunar calendar.  It might be great for the studio, but maybe not so much in the field.  I just finished going through the book Capturing Light and in the beginning of the book the author discussed the app Helios for iphone.  That does me no good since my...

Moonrise & Moonset

We haven't really discussed Moonrise and Moonset.  Most dictionaries will tell you these aren't even words, but they are words just as Sunrise and Sunset are.  When shooting night photography, the moon is your only natural light source.  So even though you may not be taking shots of the moon, it is still a good...

Now latenyte.com moves forward…

My Social Security hearing is over and I got to spend a great night with my family.  With that said, as promised, I'm back in the studio.  I'm on the computer working on the website and have three goals: I want the site to be easier to navigate, instead of just going to the most...
