My Review of the Asterisk Knee Brace I have been wearing Asterisk knee Braces since 2008. Over that time my knee braces have become an piece of equipment I cannot ski with out.

TrekPak is a new padded camera bag insert that does away with the annoyances of velcro by introducing a new pin system for adjusting dividers: What makes TrekPak really unique, is that you won?t find any Velcro. When you try to adjust a normal gear bag while out in the field, you know how frustrating [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/44/74/13/447413.jpeg[/IMG]

Got a couple of days to do whatever I wanted after the European Open. I chose skiing, what a surprise.

If you haven’t noticed, the mobile photo sharing space has been exploding lately. Facebook, Google+, and Twitter are all including photo-sharing as a major feature in their mobile apps. Smaller startups, such as Instagram, Path, and now Pool Party, are starting to get quite a following as well. Instagram continues to be my favorite photo-sharing [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/31/78/14/317814.png[/IMG]
This idea came to me after I had shot this photo in the daytime. I had been seeing a lot of celestial-type shots on the Internet, but most were just landscapes with no action. My main focus is action sports, and I love a challenge. I figured I would give it a try. To start [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/49/01/89/490189.jpeg[/IMG]
I’m in the lucky position right now to have all three of Canons latest cameras sitting here in front of me. I have been using the 5dMKII since January last year , I purchased a 7d in August and just over two weeks ago I picked up the new Canon 1dMKIV. Whilst I’m not going to do exhaustive comparative testing between all the cameras (I simply don’t have the time to do this and plenty of websites out there will do this anyway) I thought I should collect together some of the thoughts I have had whilst using these cameras. These 3 cameras cover a broad spectrum in pricing so they are likely to appeal to both professional and amateur photographers. Which camera would I chose for a particular task? Read on to find out.

I was hoping that I would have a chance to edit some of my thanksgiving footage before my final exams snuck up on me. I failed. I will get some editing done over Christmas. Brighton received something like 50" of snow the week of Thanksgiving. It made for some excellent skiing. Every lift on the mountain was open by Thanksgiving day. That does not happen often. What else does n [...][IMG][/IMG]

While working on my blog this weekend, I stumbled upon the archives and started to read through some of my old posts. I found a screenshot of my iPhone home screen from August 2008. It’s fascinating to see the apps I was using back then and see how my “top apps” have changed over time. [...]
Plain and simple, there is some shit that needs to change pronto and we already have the means to fix it! [img]http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/cd1/7ad/cd17adc9-084b-400f-99a1-7255ef65d698[/img]

There are two reasons you are looking at this post. You either use speedlights a lot due to their small size and weight or you are insanely cheap. Either way, this bracket is both cheap and useful for both sides. I tend to use big lights for most of my lighting, however on a lot [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/03/77/14/37714.jpeg[/IMG]
