In the Begining....
This is the start of the new photographic related blog for Fastball Photography (AKA Steve Leach).
You will find helpful hints, experiences, tips and tricks as well as location and site reviews of some of the best photographic locations on the Gulf Coast of Florida and from time to time other special locations of interest.
You can find my photography in several places online Here as well as HERE
You may ask, why in the world would I name a blog "Life at 400mm"? Those who know me understand this as I am 90% of the time photographing at 400mm. I seem to see the world in small sections and isolation of events and behaviors so 400mm works great for me, I will take that lens off an shoot wide angle landscapes or low light candid shots and even move to a 70-300 to walk around the streets. But the 100-400L is the main tool on the end of my Canon 40D (which has over 300,000 shutter releases on it).
I am not huge on post processing a photo, but will play around from time to time with artistic license to create an image, but most of what you will see is not photoshopped. I enjoy getting up hours before dawn, traveling out to our parks and preserves to arrive at the right spot way before the first crack of dawn, watch the colors in the sky erupt and the wildlife wake up and to catch that magic light that only happens that early in the morning. Its MAGIC out there that early in the mornings.
Enough for a first post, look for more posts about the same time I am publishing articles for the Examiner.
Here is a sunrise to start the Blog,
