20 years ago, I started a second career as a motorcycle journalist, and I’ve been lucky enough to see many of the beautiful places in the world and publishing stories and photos of my adventures. I’ve started documenting my bicycle adventures in a similar fashion, and will be sharing those stories here. Please join me.

40 Winks, originally uploaded by john m flores. We get so caught up in technique and technicalities sometimes that we stop looking at photos. Damn precision, inspiration does not live there.

Drawn, originally uploaded by john m flores. Sometimes you need to put your photos away, create some distance, and then revisit them.

Flock, originally uploaded by john m flores. [A break from the incessant posts about the GH2!] I’ve got tens of thousands of photos in Lightroom at this point. I love bumping into old stuff with new eyes.

Stewie is my co-pilot, originally uploaded by john m flores. Taken with the Panasonic GH2 in iA (intelligent Auto) mode. I rarely use the automated modes on a camera because just end up fighting with them. Kind of like when you argue with your GPS on the best way to get home. But I can’t…

Alex, Again., originally uploaded by john m flores. I felt so bad about that last photo with the poor photos of this cat. I had to try again! Panasonic GH2 with 20mm F1.7 pancake lens. Photos shot at ISO1600, F1.7, 1/30. This is more like it. As you can tell by the settings, there wasn’t…

Pondering Pollock/Pondering Panasonic, originally uploaded by john m flores. This one was a challenge. I had my much-loved Pentax DA70 F2.4 Limited mounted on the Panasonic GH2 via a Fotodiox adapter. IIRC I was shooting wide open – F2.4 – which is not a problem with this lens.

When you’re in a setting where the light is consistent and you can set and forget the ISO, the GH2 is a quick, light and unobtrusive camera. The shutter is quiet (no leaf shutter quiet,…
