3 Years ago today, one of my best friends, Mark Forester, a combat controller with the US Air Force was killed in Afghanistan while attempting to rescue a fallen teammate. His brother Thad, has recently completed the book about his life, titled “My Brother in Arms“.
It is now available on Amazon. From September 29th – Oct 2nd, it will be available as a FREE download. If you own an iPad or iPhone device you should still be able to read it through the free Kindle App For Apple Devices- Kindle App as well.
Mark Forester is the best personal example that I know of in terms of what it means to live honorably, to serve with charity and to sacrifice unselfishly. You will be a better person for reading this book, and come to better know the price that is paid for the freedoms we enjoy. I have read almost all of it today in a single sitting and wanted to get the word out. Download it it as soon as possible, and read it when you can.

I know many of you have been patiently waiting for this so, I am very Happy to announce that my Canon 70D Crash Course Tutorial Training Video Manual is now available for download on my store. If you are a first time camera owner and have the 70D this is absolutely a must have purchase. The Video assumes viewers have no working knowledge of photography and works them through simple and easy lessons in just a few hours. By the end of the video, you will not only have a very solid foundation of photography knowledge, you will have an advanced understanding of the Canon 70D itself. The video covers everything from how to focus, shooting modes, drive modes, white balance, flash, live view, video shooting, as well as all the other major functions of the camera. Definitely easier, faster and more instructive than reading a book or the manual.
For those of you who order, we would definitely be interested in any suggestions you might have to improve it, and we typically do on these first download drafts. If you see something weird or that looks out of place, please let us know! There are so many features in the menu and new live view lessons, it pushed us a bit over our typical mark of 4 hours. We will be making some adjustments to some of the lessons (mostly volume adjustments), and might add an additional 1-2 lessons if we can figure the space problems out.
For those of you who order the download now, you may add the DVD when it is available for the price of shipping only. An revised lessons will also be made available on the download store, which you will have access to.
Thank you so much everyone for your support!

UPDATE: The Canon 70D Crash Course is now Available here: Canon 70D Crash Course Tutorial Training Video Download
Been getting plenty of questions about the Canon 70D Crash Course Training Tutorial Video and when it will be available:
Ive been working non-stop on it since it arrived and I would be really shocked if the downloads were not available by this weekend, the 21st at the latest. Anyone who orders a download and would like to add a DVD when they are ready (about 4-5 weeks after the download is ready) can do so for the cost of shipping only ($8.95 in the US).
It amazing to me how with each camera there are more and more features, which require more and more knowledge about the system as a whole. I do not see how it would be possible for an average person to purchase a camera like the 70D and have an enjoyable shooting experience, or be able to max out its potential without some kind of training. Its getting to the point now where, Im worried I wont be able to fit everything into the 4 hours of space we have on the DVD.
Ill make an announcement here as soon as it is ready, but it is looking like it will be Saturday at the latest. Thank you for your support!

Some people have already gotten their hands on the iPhone 5S. They’re saying there’s one thing that makes it better than the iPhone 5C; the camera. The new iSight camera features a bigger aperture (F/2.2), more megapixels, and what Apple is calling “True Tone” flash which offers two LED lights giving 1,000 flash combinations in an attempt to balance the light of a given scene. It also has a new burst mode that can capture 10 FPS.
Cameras are becoming a top priority among smartphone users as it’s usually the only camera they have. Apple has listened and looks like they’ve delivered a much better product. It’ll be interesting to get my hands on one and see what it camera can do.
