    The Photographer's Guide to Moab and Its Surrounding Parks - TDS Photo Podcast
    2026/10/13
    This is The Digital Story Podcast 1,074, Oct. 13, 2026. Today's theme is, "The Photographer's Guide to Moab and Its Surrounding Parks." I'm Derrick Story. After having spent over a week in the Moab, Utah area, both scouting and leading a photography workshop, I can say with great confidence that it's one of the most photo-rich areas I've ever worked. But there's lots to know in order to maximize your experience there. And I'm going to cover just that on today's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.

Apple Podcasts -- Spotify Podcasts -- Stitcher Podbean Podcasts -- Podbay FM -- Tune In The Photographer's Guide to Moab and Its Surrounding Parks I drove the VW ID.4, loaded with supplies for our workshop, from Santa Rosa, CA, across Northern Nevada, the great salt flats of Utah, then down Highway 191 to Moab where we set up our workshop headquarter. To the north of us was Arches National Park, to the Southwest was Canyonlands, and in-between was Dead Horse Point State Park. Here's what I learned and what I recommend. I hope you enjoy the show. Before I get into the specific sites themselves, I'll start with a few basics. In early October, sunrise is a little after 7 am, and sunset is a bit before 7 pm. These times are important because you want to be at your chosen location before sunrise and sunset. After 9 am the light is contrasty and difficult to tame. Our mornings generally went like this: Up at 4:30 am, coffee and protein shakes at 5:00 am, depart HQ at 5:30 am, be in position at our location at 6:30 am, continue field work until 11:00 am, head back to HQ for lunch and lab, then head out again at 4:30 pm for the waning light and sunset. In addition to our cameras, mandatory gear included a hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, lip balm, layered clothing, hiking boots, lots of water, snacks, and a flashlight. There are some areas where a trekking pole can be quite useful for balance. Altitude does play a role. The Visitor Center at Arches is 4,085 feet and Delicate Arch is a strenuous hike up to 4,829 feet. I recommend arriving in the Moab area a couple days before you begin your trekking up trails. Pets are not allowed on the trails. Drones are not allowed in the national parks, and stay on trails to protect fragile living soil crusts. I shouldn't have to say this, but no climbing on arches. Now, on to the locations themselves. Arches National Park Day 1: I recommend starting with the Windows at sunrise, then hiking over to Double Arch. Parking is in the middle of the park. You don't have to move the car to get from one area to the other. The hike up to the Windows is fairly easy. Along the way note Turret Arch to your right. It can yield many great compositions depending on the angle you're viewing it. After the Windows, you can begin to work your way back. I recommend a stop at Balanced Rock, then Courthouse Towers, and wrap up the morning at Park Avenue Viewpoint. We could still get good shots there at 10:30 am. But by 11:00 it's time to get out of the sun and rehydrate and refuel. Delicate Arch is the star of the park and is best viewed at sunset. There are 3 ways to do this ranging from easy to strenuous. If you want to stand in the presence of the arch itself, then hike all the way up the steep trail. Allow an hour for this trek and bring water. If you're not a seasoned hiker, I do not recommend this adventure. An easier view is from the east side parking in the Lower/Upper Delicate Arch parking lot. From here, you can obtain a good view by hiking an easier trail that's about 500 yards. Bring a telephoto for this shoot, and you can frame some nice compositions. Either way, you'll need a headlamp or flashlight for the walk back to the parking lot. Day 2: I recommend another early start and a fairly easy hike to Landscape Arch. Allow about 30 minutes on the trail from the time you leave the parking lot. There's lots to explore in the entire Devil's Garden area including Pine Tree Arch, Tunnel Arch, and Skyline Arch. Later that day, consider an evening shoot at Panorama Point which is excellent for night photography. You'll want to check the position of the Milky Way and moon. And for a good foreground subject drive a short distance to Balanced Rock. Canyonlands and Dead Horse Point Day 3: It's a bit longer drive from Moab, but Canyonlands National Park and Dead Horse Point State Park offer many stunning visual opportunities. Start with a sunrise shoot at Mesa Arch. It's a quarter mile hike from the parking lot with moderate up and down. Be careful with your footing in the dark. It's much easier on the return trip in daylight. You will have lots of company there, so arrive at least 45 minutes before sunrise so you can get a parking spot. You'll have to be patient with the other tourists when you arrive at the arch itself. It will be crowded. But it is worth it when the sun rises and ...

    The Panasonic L10 in Action - At My Son's Wedding - TDS Photo Podcast
    2026/09/29
    This is The Digital Story Podcast 1,072, Sept. 29, 2026. Today's theme is, "The Panasonic L10 in Action - At My Son's Wedding." I'm Derrick Story. Black suit, black tie, white shirt, and new shoes - I was dressed to celebrate my son's marriage at the Silverado Resort in Napa, CA. But I had two other precious accessories: a beautiful Waltham watch that was my father's, and the Panasonic L10 that I used to capture memories over the weekend celebration. I'll talk about the latter during this week's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show. Digital Photography Podcast 1072 Tune-In Via Your Favorite Podcast App! Apple Podcasts -- Spotify Podcasts -- Stitcher Podbean Podcasts -- Podbay FM -- Tune In The Panasonic L10 in Action - At My Son's Wedding All photos by Derrick Story with the Panasonic Lumix L10. I'm not sure what was most popular during my son's wedding weekend in Napa: my father of the groom speech at the reception, or the Panasonic LUMIX L10 hanging around my neck. I chose the L10 to cover this important event because of its great looks that went well with my formal attire, its Micro Four Thirds sensor with 20 MP of resolution, the Leica 24-75mm f/1.7-2.8 zoom lens, the 2200 mAh lithium batter for all day endurance, and the creative color profiles I could use to capture the mood I wanted. Speaking of which, I selected the Fresh Bright LUT for my film look and added the K&F CONCEPT 43mm Black Diffusion 1/8 Filter to compliment the color profile. The result was a warm glow with diffused highlights that captured the mood perfectly. During the twilight, outdoor reception, my ISO settings ranged from 400 to 1600, and I was generally shooting around f/4, but would open up or stop down a bit depending on the scene. I did use the Olympus FL-LM3 clip on flash when I needed a bit of fill light. I've read some online reviews where the reviewers felt that the power zoom lens operated too slowly for event work. But that wasn't my experience during the weekend. So my feeling is that this is a personal judgment based on your shooting. The HEIF files provide plenty of quality, were editable if I wanted to, and keep the file size to around 5 MB. I used the SmallRig Half Case and the SmallRig Thumb Grip to protect the camera and to facilitate a solid grip while shooting. Not only did the pictures turn out wonderfully, I had so much fun using the L10 and talking with others about it who were curious about what I had hanging around my neck. It was a great choice for wedding weekend. The Panasonic LUMIX L10 current sells for $1,498 from B&H and other authorized retailers.
