About Me

My name is Michael Morris, I am a photographer who came to photography later in life.  I started with digital and found it unrewarding so after a short time with MF, I moved to LF 4X5.  Almost everything I do now is large format B&W.  I am working to improve my technical and artistic skills constantly.  Living in Phoenix, I have access to some very good photographers who are willing to help and teach.  I am on a journey exploring photography, the US, and myself to some extent.  Along with my wife Mary, we are traveling the US together, cameras follow us everywhere and as we travel, this BLOG is updated.  It is very much a journal of my journey with ramblings about everything from the photograph I took while traveling, to the ah-ha moments when something new is grasped.

The old masters work is enthralling to me and I spend a lot of time looking at their work as well as most other work I have access to.

Dolphins, Seals, and Whales Oh My

We took care of our 12V power issues this morning, we bought a couple of batteries and a charger.  We can make it the rest of the trip like this.  We will have 2 days of dry camping on the way home so new freshly charged batteries will be nice.

We didn't do a lot of shooting today other than at the jetty on the spit of land which forms the harbor.  But while there we saw starfish, dolphins, seals, and a couple of gray whales.  No good photos of the whales but it was very exciting.

Tomorrow we are heading to Crescent City to spend our last day on the coast, after that we are heading inland.  I will miss the coast and the cool temperatures.
