I've just updated the galleries (mostly by culling old photos that weren't up to my current standards) and changed the way the gallery system works behind the scenes. If you spot any problems, please let me know!
As always, thanks for visiting!

I got in a little shooting this afternoon, (mostly) between rain showers – luckily the 5D Mark II doesn’t seem to mind a few sprinkles! Color is past peak here in Beloit, WI, but still quite pretty in my opinion. Shooting right after and during the rain has the advantage of enhancing contrast and color…
Around a dozen of my prints are now on display (and for sale!) at Nikki’s Cafe of Beloit, located at 604 Pleasant St # 140, Beloit, WI 53511.

Unfortunately, you really lose the sense of depth with the small versions here. These are larger than the versions on my Facebook page (at http://www.facebook.com/jackvjohnsonphoto), but…
I attended Brad Nordlof’s Landscape Photography presentation last night at Camera Craft in Rockford. Brad showed slides (on the large-screen TV) of his photos and offered tips and advice to fellow photographers. Due to some initial time lost on technical difficulties with the TV’s interface to the computer, Brad had to omit some material –…
I made it back to Gibraltar Rock for sunset last weekend. Well, twice, actually – Saturday we had some nice clouds as sunset approached, so I headed up (it’s a bit over an hour’s drive from home) only to get rained out. Sunday I remembered to check the weather map before leaving, and sure enough,…
Thanks for the reminder Jack, I think I need to do a little pruning myself! 🙂 Sometimes I wonder why I bothered to trip the shutter on some of those older images!
Galleries worked fine for me. Looks great.
Hey, Mark –
I’m chalking it up to learning experiences – at least, I like to _think_ I’m getting better! (Or maybe that I’m getting lucky more often!)
:^D
I see you were up in the U.P. this weekend – hope you had a great trip!
