Justin and myself made our trip from Harrisburg Pennsylvania to Tahoe California last week for the second year in the row.
I shot photos along the trip on the LX3, which you can view in this flickr slideshow.
Justin also made a video edit from our trip.
Over the weekend Doug Usko, Mike Bennett, Jesse Stoneburger and myself went to 7 Springs Resort to shoot their halfpipe on opening day. I decided to film a bunch of our trip with my new Panasonic LX3, and here is the video result. It is a lot of fun filming with this camera and I hope to make edits like this during the rest of my trips this year.

Last thursday I went to Reid Menzer with Bonnie to shoot a large drop in the park. The drop top was at my shoulders and large for anyone to hit let alone a girl.
It started falling last night at midnight. Today at 6pm it was 15 inches and the forecast calls for more threw the night. Big plans for the next week.
Some more images ran in the new ECS issue. My image of Kade Madsen from SLC ran as his Rookie Card. This is one of my favorite images of the year and I am really glad to see it run. Mike Bennett and Tom Weiss both had images in the Big Boulder Resort Guide section. Lastly Justin Mullen’s hard work paid off with his image of a hugh cliff we shot in Tahoe running as a double page.
I have taken a lot of photographs of Ms. Olivia and here are two more. The color image was shot in Hanover, PA during one of our walks and was taken on my Hasselblad 500c/m with Kodak E100VS film. The B&W image of her was taken on some 35mm camera with film that I forget. Probably Kodak T-Max 400 film.
All of the Panoramic images were taken on the Ultonic Panoramic toy camera with Kodak Tri-X 400 film also during our Hanover walk.
Some new stuff thats going to be on a new site. BenBirkPhoto v2 upgrade is about out.

A few portraits and lifestyles from this past summer that have not been posted yet. Some are film, and some are digital. Not going to say anything about them, you decide for yourself.
