This video will show you how I blended a daytime Live Composite image with a conventional long exposure from the Delaware Water Gap on top of Mount Minsi in Pennsylvania looking at Mount Tammany in New Jersey. To get here I will show you my winter hike along the way on the Appalachian Trail. As I move along the trail, I’ll share some of my images. Some of the vistas along the way are breathtaking. I will share some of my settings and how I utilize the Olympus OM-D camera system. Explore, Capture & Create. Click Here

PBS39 & TEDxLehighRiver asked me to do a follow up to my previous TEDx talk. This is the write for the event: “Lehigh Valley photographer Frank Smith, who gave a TEDxLehighRiver talk in 2013 called “Looking Through the Lens: Vocation vs Avocation,” will discuss how he found alternative paths to get satisfaction from his work when the pandemic prevented him from exploring the world. His choices offer lessons for all of us.”
I hope you can Join me!

As many of you know I have been an Olympus Visionary for quite a while and a strong believer in their products. Effective the first of the year, Olympus spun off the camera and lens portion of the business. The new company name is now OM Digital Solutions. I am humbled and grateful that the new company has invited me to renew my Olympus Visionary agreement with them. I’m thrilled to be part of what is sure to be a very exciting new journey.
