Jeff & Cocoa camping at Buckeye Campground, near Bridgeport, Eastern Sierra, California.
YIPPEE. Tomorrow morning, we are heading down the highway…395 that is. We are taking the slow route to Bakersfield, for a Big Bash with Jeff’s high school classmates, plus an early Thanksgiving celebration with his Mom.
We will be in and out of cell range, but we will connect whenever possible. We will be shooting for our stock files and fine art in route, dipping in a few hot springs and whatever else that inspires us.
I also wanted to share our new products with you. You can find them over here on our New Product Info/Discount Coupons page. If you have any questions, just contact us via email or phone and we will get back to you when we come out of the woods!
Cheers,
Sherri

Portrait of Peg. This image of my friend, Peg, was taken while camping at Gold Lake in Sierra County, CA this summer.
You can now find me on Google+. Come on over and join me at: https://plus.google.com/118122106764594800502/posts. After just two days on there, I will have to say, I’m very impressed with the way it works and the quality of content I’ve seen so far. Like everything else, there is a bit of a learning curve, but it’s worth it!
Today on Google+ is #WomenWednesday and this image was submitted for it. There are currently several Themes for each day of the week. Apparently, the Themes are very popular. They are also fun and a great way to hone your photography skills!
I hope to see you there!
Cheers,
Sherri

Camping at Lake Almanor, near Mount Lassen, Northern California.
Surprise! I did something I thought I’d never do. I jumped on the Flickr bandwagon. I have nearly 100 photos uploaded now and a few sets. Here is my largest and most popular set; Outdoor Lifestyles.
I will be adding many more images here and to our main Photography Website in the coming weeks! Be sure to check back often!
C ya,

I don’t usually post more than 1 photo in a blog post, but I wanted to show these 3 together because they were all taken at the same place and they are all “Water Abstracts!”
Abstracts are so fun to create and I love to teach others how to create them too! I’ve got an Abstract Photo Workshop comin’ up really soon here in Auburn. Come join in on the fun!
See Abstract Photo Workshops for more information and to register!
Hope to see you there!

Woman mountain biking on the Stagecoach Trail in Auburn, California the "Endurance Capital of the World."
If you are into shooting action as I am, Auburn is a great place to do it. They don’t call us the “Endurance Capital of the World” for nothing. People travel from all over the world to participate in several annual events held here each year, as we have some of the best multi-use trails in the country. Auburn is no longer just a stopping off point in route to Lake Tahoe and Reno. It is becoming a travel destination in it’s own right!
I was on the hunt for mountain bikers the day I shot this photo, while hiking on the Stagecoach Trail. As a local, I know where the hot spots are for action. I was standing on top of a picnic table near the trails edge, ready for my first victim to come flying down the hill. I don’t think she ever saw me, she was going so fast!
Because I was so close to the trail, I had to use my 28-7o mm zoom lens; not the 80-200 mm zoom lens I normally use for panning photographs. Back then, I was shooting with the Nikon D70, so the lowest ISO I could use was 200. My shutter speed was set at 1/30 sec. and my aperture was f 16.
Panning is one of the techniques I use a lot when shooting action. If you would like to learn how to shoot action and adventure, I will be leading a Action & Adventure Photo Workshop nearby on May 1st. I’d love to have you join me. For information and to register, please click on the previous link.
SPECIAL – You can also organize your own group of 5-8 and one person gets to attend for FREE!
Comments or questions are always welcome!
Cheers,

Woman running with her dogs across the famous and historical "No Hands Bridge" in Auburn, California the "Endurance Capital of the World!"
Wow, this threw me for a loop! This image was just licensed for 100,000! It will be used to promote the upcoming “Western States 100 Endurance Run,” which starts in Lake Tahoe and finishes here in Auburn.
This is by far the most money I have ever been paid for the use of a single image!
Just had to share the BIG news! 🙂
Have a great weekend!
