The month of June was an interesting one for me — scattered with traveling and exploring new areas of photography. I’ve also been preparing for some big changes in the month of July, with my new job and a cross-country move. Needless to say, this upcoming month should be a good one, filled with lots of new things to photograph. But this post isn’t about July, it’s about June — so enjoy some of the more interesting posts from the previous month.

• Photographing the People of Monterrey: My first real attempt at people photography during a trip to Monterrey Mexico.
• MORE Equipment Options for Macro Photography: Non-lens related equipment that is commonly used in macro photography. Tripods, flashes, rails, beanbags, reflectors, viewfinders, release cables, pain killers, and more.
• So You Think You Know What An F-Number Is: An explanation of what an f-number really is when it comes to camera lenses, and how it’s different from aperture, f-stop, and diaphragms.
