I’m not entirely sure what the larger foreground sculptures are, though I’m good enough to figure out that that’s a replica Eiffel Tower. Taken at sunset in Epcot. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT, EF 70-300mm @ 225mm, 1/500 sec shutter, f/7.1, ISO 100
Sunset in Yosemite National Park – similar to one I posted long ago, but the a wider angle showing the trees. That said, I’m not completely fond of the look that the foreground trees took on in this HDR rendition, but the HDR was a must really to get the… Continue reading
I feel like the Badlands get ignored because they don’t have the biggest, tallest, wildest, whatever-est claim, but it really was a beautiful park, and based on pictures I’ve seen from other people, I would readily go back there for another visit. Of course, we were there in the early… Continue reading
Day 3 was mostly spent at Crater Lake. I like to relax on vacation by demanding that we wake up in time for sunrise and go to take pictures. In light of this, we got up early to head to Watchman overlook with our coffee, but finding clouds there, backtracked… Continue reading
Grand Haven Lighthouse Sunset – a bit grainy (this one is just one shot with the shadows brought up a lot) but nice none the less. Remember when Lake Michigan was below freezing and Lake Michigan was ice as far as you could see? You do now… As the temperature… Continue reading

Sunset Sunday! Sunset over Crater Lake last week, not the greatest as sunsets go, but there were a few moments where the clouds looked cool, and the setting was pretty awesome. I think this one would look better with a bit of adjustment, but I don’t have that accessible at… Continue reading
This sunset (now with sailboat!) was already in the queue before I developed the Sunday plan… From the Grand Haven breakwall on the North side of the channel, which might actually mean this is from Ferrysburg. I was over there for a paddle and got back just before sunset but… Continue reading
What can I say, I like my sunset pictures – maybe I should start a Sunday-Sunset theme. This one from inland a bit around the Saugatuck / Douglas area. Taken a few weeks ago (6/20). Picture taken with Sony a6000, SEL 18-200mm lens @ 18mm, 1/80 sec shutter, f/6.3, ISO… Continue reading
Sunset from the Grand Marais campground during GLSKS 2007. Picture taken with Canon 350D, EF 70-300mm lens @ 300mm, f/7.1, 1/400 sec, ISO 100
