A couple weeks ago the folks at Photography Review asked me to be the subject of their first ever "What's In Your Camera Bag?" video series. In this series, they're visiting with photographers in all genres to discover what they carry and how they carry it when they're working in their respective fields. We shot a little bit in the gallery and then headed out to Dead Horse Point State Park for the remainder of the shoot.

If you're interested in checking out the video, here's a link to PhotographyReview.com.

I'm rarely in front of the camera and found it a little awkward. Hopefully I don't look and sound too goofy!

I gotta see this! Be back soon!

OK, I'm back...very very cool video. Complete lack of dorkiness IMO. You didn't come off like a deer in headlights...nice speaking voice and you looked mahvelous :smile: Nice to finally "meet" you. You also have what I call the awesome photographer look of ball cap and goatee/'stache combo...something that, sadly, I lack :wink:

Nope. no dork factor at all, you were quite natural actually. And MAN did you give me the itch to get to something elevated and rocky with 5D2 and tripod in hand! Sedona is less than 2 hours from here, I have no excuse.

Good job on the vid! Next time I drive through Moab I'd REALLY like to see the gallery.

Nice video. I don't know about you being a dork but the actor they hired to play you is a goof! He does look a little like you though.

Seriously, this is the kind of video I will spend my time watching. Great job my friend. See you in the flesh next month!

I think you're ready for a series on the Weather Channel.
How about, "The Edge of Light" ?
Blimy! Peter Lik, you have competition! :biggrin:

That was good about the weather channel Bill P.! Great video Bret and no you don't look like a dork...very professional IMO.

Thanks, everyone!

Bill: I like it! I'm ready for the fame and fortune that surely accompanies all Weather Channel stars. ;-)

Now I can finally say I know a movie star! :cool: Nice video...if that were me I'd be stuttering and my voice cracking throughout! Well done.

Nice video. You look taller on film :P

Hey Bert: I only wish I were taller! These stubby legs have to do twice the work of my taller hiking friends.

Very nice video and that place sure brings back some fun memories with the group!
