This is the Daily FRO for March 13th 2018. Today i'm talking about what gets me out of a funk, a slump or being down. I also talk about what amplifies me which I guess is similar to a slump buster.

This is the Daily FRO for March 10th 2018. Today I took proposal photos of my friend Dave Leno and I blew it. The moments captured are spot on but I blew the proper settings for the situation I was in. We were on the set of 6 ABC a news station here in Philly. There was the wall of tv monitors and that's where the will you marry would be plastered. Well, I got a ton of flicker from those screens in my images. I even did test shots prior to them arriving and I just missed it in my test shots, I didn't notice it. My shutter speed was much too high and thus captured the flickering of the screen. You can learn form my mistake, if you're ever in a situation where you need to shoot something with monitors, make sure your shutter speed is slower to compensate. Call me, 2674546376

Today is March 9th 2018 and this is the Daily FRO. I got out of the car this morning with one though in my mind. I need LESS THINKING AND MORE DOING!!! Then I though, well maybe I shouldn't put out this episode until later because of x y and z. Then I yelled at myself and said shut up, less thinking more doing, you're putting it out now. So here we are. Let's hear some feedback 2674546376

This is the Daily FRO for March 8th 2018. Today I talk about how it seems like after work I don't have a lot going on and now I need more activities. If I have nothing to take up my time I feel like i'm wasting away. I know I can't be alone in this one but I know the key is for me to keep busy and keep moving. Please give me a call and let me know what you do to make yourself feel like you're being active and not wasting time.

This is the Daily FRO for March 7th 2018. Today I talk about not putting all your eggs in one basket. Facebook changes, YouTube changes, social media changes, all things change. If you rely on one thing and one thing only, you're setting yourself up for issues. Please give me a call 2674546376

This is the Daily FRO for March 6th 2018. Do you think traditional styles of learning are out of date, I do. I was not a great student, I wasn't the worst, wasn't the best. An A here and there, a few B's a Few C's and that was about it. I def was a disruptive student, always getting in trouble, sent into the hall, sent to the office, put in the corner, kept in from recess so on and so forth. But I could learn, I just learned differently, it took the right teachers and the right teaching style to bring it out. I'd love to hear your thoughts on schools, please call me 2674546376 Thank You.

This is the Daily FRO fro March 5th 2018. Today I wanted to play a little game called "Let's make up an exposure for a made up situation and play around with the settings in our head". The situation is an okay lit gym for a JV girls basketball game where the only gear I have is a Nikon D5500 with a 55-200 but I have to shoot at 5.6 only. I set the scene with the proper exposure with a 2.8 lens and build the rest from there. Let me know what you think about this one, it's different but I like it. 2674546376 Enjoy

This is the Daily FRO for March 4th 2018. Today I had some audio issues and noticed them before I got to far into the episode. I had to reset the computer which fixed the mic issue but the first 5 minutes will have some minor audio issues. I liked what I was saying and didn't want to attempt to re do it. So please bear with me for the first few minutes. My brain went into overdrive today thinking about my photo stories and what I have to be proud of. This is a strong one today so please enjoy. As always you can call me at 2674546376 with any feedback.

This is the Daily FRO for March 3rd 2018. Today I was at my dads house searching through the old family photo albums. I was looking for a particular photo that might show the old typewriter somewhere in the background. While looking at the older photos in the albums I was left with a realization that one, I don't know the majority of the people in the photos and two sometimes peoples old photos end up in the trash or the vintage store. I called todays episode "Forgotten Stories" because that's what ends up happening with many of the photos we see or encounter. If you would like to share your story with me please do so, 2674546376

This is the Daily FRO for March 2nd 2018. Todays show is all over the place, I started with talking about Netflix spending 8 million dollars on content in 2018. Then I moved into why the camera you use doesn't matter. Followed by "gratitude" and how people who tell you it's all about gratitude are just faking it, I think...... Please call me 2674546376 so I know if this show was a total waste of your time or it actually had some value. Thanks
