The Tamron Theater

"All of us tend to think of Tamron as a great manufacturer of optics. Let's face it, they make GREAT glass, but there's another aspect to Tamron's incredible presence in the industry. They believe in education and support for photographers who are working professionals, aspiring pros and serious hobbyists. They're all about helping you with the quality of every image you capture, from their workshops and Tailgate Tour to tech support online, Customer Service and all of their educational material.

In the Tamron Theater we're sharing videos, podcasts, guest posts and images from some of the very best artists in the world. 

Welcome to the Tamron Theater!"

A Double Feature - On the Road Again with André and Ken...

5/8/2015

The boys are back again with a second episode. This time, one more adventure in Death Valley as they head out to the "Racetrack", which in the end, according to my calculation winds up being a six hour investment with virtually no results. As usual, I love the conversation, which if you followed the original series of "The Odd Couple", Jack Lemmon and Jack Klugman couldn't have done it any better.

This episode, even though there's not a lot of photography involved, does make the point about chasing images. How many times have we all headed out with a camera in hand to some place on the planet that people talked about being amazing to photograph, but there was virtually nothing there? Not every adventure produces results, but they do create some stellar memories!

Now André and Ken battle the elements and a cactus in search of great images around Zion, but again it's the quest for great images you have to love the most! So, I thought it would be fun to make today's post a double feature. A few more minutes to watch and maybe a bigger coffee, while you kick back and enjoy watching the "Boyz" search for the ultimate image!

They really are Lemmon and Klugman as Ken brings all the right gear and sets up before dawn with a tripod and André levels the camera with some snow and I think his wallet. You've got to love these two!

Finally having Mother Nature cut them a little slack and bring out the sun, they practically run up the trail in Zion in hopes of capturing one perfect vista.

...and when you've got the shot you've simply got the shot! It's one of those feelings we can all relate to, some more than others. 

Catch the third episode of Tamron's Field Guide below, but even better catch the Tailgate Tour live. Here's the schedule for the rest of May and your opportunity to pick up some great tips from one of the finest teams of tech reps and artists in the industry!

That is so funny, a couple of years ago my partner and I drove all the way out to the racetrack and said WTF. Chasing the elusive perfect moment is always fun. Just make sure you have a full tank of gas!!
