New Nikon D4 is here!!!
I JUST received an announcement that the new Nikon camera is FINALLY out. It has been been delayed and delayed with natural disasters in Japan and Singapore but here it is.
It's a beefier camera and 20% more expensive than the D3. Of course I have to buy it. But I must admit that I'm unimpressed with the new features. I was hoping for 24 megapixels or more. Rumor is that the new D800 will be 36 megapixels.

Great evening at the RAD Awards last night. Here is a photo of Carey Hart with his wife Pink. Carey won the Lifetime Acheivement Award and was the highlight of the evening.

Leonesse Winemaker's Dinner
Julie and I enjoyed a perfect evening at Leonesse's Winemaker's Dinner on Friday. Food was prepared by Mike Cragg of Temecula Catering. What's cool is that Mike used to work at the Ritz Carlton in Laguna Niguel... the same hotel that I worked at when I was putting myself through college.

My Kids Rule
We were getting ready for a studio session and I needed to get my lights ready... we, of course, make the kids sit in 'the chair' and I take our test shots until everything is balanced and ready for the client.
This was a particularly good day because Summer and Jared typically scream and cry about having their photo taken; this time they were kinda into it.

Bad Luck for Nikon
First Nikon gets hit with massive Tsunami destruction in Japan and now more water damage in Thailand. It's a good thing I have all the equipment I need for a couple more years.
If I could send a message out to Nikon, it would be to build factories on higher ground!!!

Temecula Sunsets
We were at a networking meeting for TVWP last week and I was lucky enough to have my camera. Everything was taken at Falkner Winery at the Pinnacle Restaurant. Surreal, huh?

Front Cover
As I was going through a random industry website I ran across an ad for this magazine. It looks like I made the front cover. Would have been nice if they gave me photo credit. Or perhaps asked to use the photo.
It was taken at South Coast Winery's downstairs courtyard, just outside the barrel room.
