Ah, I love when Friday rolls along, especially when I don't have to rush out of the house early. As I was lying in bed this morning waiting for the coffeemaker to do it's thing, I got to thinking about my next blog post. I have some great photos lined up for my weekly post, but I wanted to share a recent find. I was planning on printing some of my photographs to mat, frame and sell after I finished building my website (which is almost there) and remembered a suggestion from a friend-- mpix.com. Late last week, I selected a couple of photos to print, went to mpix and placed my order. I found the website easy to interact with, as I created my account and uploaded the images. A large variety of sizes were available, along with editing tools and adding borders. I submitted my order and waited. Well, the photos arrived yesterday and they look incredible! The colors were vibrant and the detail was, well, detailed! As much as I enjoy displaying my images on my blog, nothing quite compares to a finished print that's well done! Do you have some photos from that special trip or occassion? Go to mpix.com and bring that moment to life!
Stay tuned for more weekly tips!

- My interest in photography has been a natural progression from the things I'm most passionate about—traveling and nature. Traveling has always been a part of my life. I've traveled all over the United States, including Alaska and parts of Canada. It's in my blood. My trips to Alaska and Canada in particular have taken me to beautiful, remote places both on foot and by paddle, but it was in Alaska that I got seriously hooked on photography. Photography, for me, is about capturing moments. My goal is to create images that move people, that touch them in some way. When people see my work, I want them to see the beauty that surrounds us all. If I've successfully captured what I saw, the image should take the viewer from their chair and transport them to that moment in time.
