Southern Idaho is about as boring as it gets. It shares a border with Nevada, but somehow people are shocked when it's over 100°F, flat, prone to wildfires, covered in lava rock, and looks nothing like the touristy Idaho pictures you've probably seen. But the one little joy I have out he

This week's photography challenge is: Summer ☀️⛱️🎤🎟️🥵 I know most of us are feeling it. Triple digits. Hotter than hell. But what does that mean? Concerts. Lake Days. BBQs. Camping. Floating the river. Whatever you do in the summer that you love, I want to see it. What does summer mean

This week's photography challenge was about the little things: anything that brings you happiness. And I love what you all shared! From a questionable amount of doctor pepper, to your loved ones, your pets, and breathtaking views, we have a lot to be happy about. 🥹 Be on the lookout later to

This last week I've been pretty down, and when I get stuck in those ruts I high key procrastinate which sadly resulted in skipping a week on my photography challenge. But I haven't forgotten about you all and with the thought of mental health in mind, this week's challenge is: Things Th

Two weeks ago I challenged photographers to take and send in their best airplane photos, and you all did not disappoint! Whether enjoying the view during your travels, watching airplanes take off at the end of the runway, or attending airshow events. Airplanes are sometimes something we take for gr

This week's photography challenge is: airplanes ✈️ Whether you're an aviation nerd like myself or never think twice when you see one flying overhead, we often find aircraft as our photography subjects - whether thats looking outside the airline window or watching them take off at the end

This week's photography challenge was abandoned places! Sadly I completely spaced on posting on RedNote last week so I didn't get a ton of photos, but what I did get sent was amazing. These photos are spooky, vibrant, and colorful. And I loved getting to hear the stories behind them! @ I

This week's photography challenge is: abandoned places 🏚️ A little about me: I LOVE exploring abandoned places (bonus points if they're supposedly haunted). One of my favorite birthdays, while I was living in Japan, I went to an abandoned amusement park, and it was so cool. Literally in

Bugs!!! With spring comes the creepy crawlies, but what also comes are one we love and need. Bees, butterflies, and even moths help the spreading of pollen and keeping our world alive! And even the ones that we may fear flying in our faces or biting us, like dragon flies and praying mantis, all ser

Buying a vintage film camera can be awesome if they're in good shape. But if your camera is anything like mine, from the late 1960's to early 1970's, there's just one thing that doesn't stand up to the test of time, and that's foam. Specifically the light seal foam that prev

This week's photography challenge is: Insects 🐝 Whether you love em, or hate em, insects are EVERYWHERE around the world. And often times they find themselves as the subject of our photos. Especially in macro photography. 📷 Bugs can be scary, but they serve a good purpose on earth (except

This week's photography challenge was trails and pathways, with the emphasis that it's not about the destination - it's the journey! You guys have been to some beautiful places either traveling alone or with friends. Thank you so much to everyone who sent in a photo this week, and b

I picked up this camera and all the gear for $50 today and I can only imagine the journey this camera has been on! Judging by the serial number this camera was made somewhere between 1969 and 1973. Here's a brief history lesson: Ricoh, already known for office equipment back in the day, want

From my hike the other day. There's a trail that takes you directly to the waterfall. And though it's beautiful, the harder steeper trail, the one less traveled, gives a different perspective. Looking down on the waterfall with nobody to disturb me but my dog. Despite the overcast day,

This week's photography challenge is: Trails People say it's not about the destination, it's about the journey! And most the time the journey is what we have saved on our cameras. So show me the paths you've taken, the road less (or most!) traveled! I can't wait to see wh

I asked photographers to capture and send in their best photos of our feathered friends, and this is what I got! Photographing birds can be rather challenging, they're fast and easily frightened so it's hard to get close! There's so many different kinds, and they truly transform the out

When in doubt, always bring your camera. You never know how your photos will turn out! 📸 #ontariospeedway #oregon #shutterspeed #photographersoflemon8 #Lightroom

This week's photography challenge is: Birds 🐦 I know, I know, when you think birds maybe you think boring bird watching. But birds can be quite the photography challenge as you try to catch them mid flight or even just trying to get their good side sitting on a branch. So this week I challen
