Looking for an Astrophotography DSLR camera?
Alan Dyer has posted a nice review of 3 DLSR cameras and how they compare in astronomical imaging. If you are looking for a DSLR camera and hope to do some astrophotography, I encourage you to read Mr. Dyer's review as it may prove to be helpful in making your decision.

Luminous Landscape Print Tutorial
If you are seeking out resources that will improve your photography and particularly your digital printing...stop right now and purchase the Luminous Landscape Tutorial "From Camera to Print." The tutorial is available via download and contains over 6 hours of instruction on how to optimize a photograph for fine art printing. The tutorial features accomplished landscape photographer Michael Reichmann who is joined by digital photo guru Jeff Schewe. It is the best $35 value available in photography today. Highly recommended!
San Juan Published in Lenswork Extended
I am very honored to share with you that the San Juan Portfolio has been published in the Lenswork Extended DVD. Lenswork is my source for artistic benchmarking. I am quite surprised that my first submission was accepted and published. The DVD is a supplement to the award winning print version of Lenswork. I consider both to be "must have" resources for any photographer. You may find out more at the link below.

DOP interview with Charles Cramer
Another insightful interview with one of today's photography masters has been published on Digital Outback Photo. The interview is with noted landscape photographer and instructor Charles Cramer. Mr. Cramer will be the guest instructor at the upcoming Fine Art Summit in November which I will be attending. I invite you to listen to the interview for some wonderful background and insight into the photography of Mr. Cramer.
Rho Ophiuchus and Antares Nebulae Complex
Well, I finally finished my first DSLR astrophotograph and my first astrophoto in nearly 4 years. It was a very steep learning curve, but I came close to my original visualization. I have more information at the astrophotograph webpage below. I hope you enjoy the image and I look forward to more compositions this summer.
