A second shot from the dunes, looking out over Glen Lake, but chronologically taken before the picture from yesterday. I’m not sure if I took this before or after I developed a sizeable hole in my foot. Picture take with Pentax W60, lens @ 5mm (28mm equivalent), f/4.2, 1/500 sec… Continue reading
Oops – forgot to add text to this space. Well, that’s a picture of North Manitou Island as seen from one of the overlooks on the Pierce Stock Drive. Not sure what the Coast Guard ‘copter was out there for. Pictures taken with a camera (details at home, writing from… Continue reading
Yeah, yeah, I know… get off the stupid bridge already. BUT, THIS ONE HAS THE MOON! Picture taken with Canon 60D, EF-S 18-135mm lens @ 18mm, f/8.0, 2 sec shutter, ISO 1600
One of the tulip beds as we were walking back into town from the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island. Tulips are kind of delicate and don’t tend to last long, but I like their kind of clean simplicity. I think this is the last one from the Mackinac trip for,… Continue reading
I took a lot of pictures of slight variations on this scene. In the end, I wasn’t a big fan of any of the compositions. Many didn’t turn out like I envisioned and the ones that did showed the sky as you see here – pretty flat and boring –… Continue reading
Sugar Loaf rock on Mackinac. Seems I have a number of pictures that seem interesting from that trip. I’m betting I’ve posted pictures of this thing somewhere before. It’s a big chunk o’ rock that juts up in the middle of Mackinac Island. Of course, it’s a rock, so I… Continue reading
This is a continuation of a post that I kind of started way back in 2011. There’s not much to that post – just a picture list, all of which are duplicated here, I think. It was before I migrated the site to use a true gallery plugin, so I’m… Continue reading
Moving off of the India pictures for a bit and back to the trip to Mackinac. This picture was taken during the day on the way over to the island. Picture taken with Canon 60D, EF-S 18-135mm lens @ 28mm, f/14, 1/400 sec shutter, ISO 800
Here’s a nice summer picture to offset the mid winter season… It’s a picture of Round Island from Mackinac Island. This is one of the preferred places to camp when kayaking to Mackinac, and the lighthouse is definitely a nice venue for watching the Mackinac Island fireworks over the Grand… Continue reading
Shot of a water buffalo that we saw on the India safari shortly after the farmers shown yesterday. This guy was out there alone and didn’t seem the least bit aggressive, but I really am not 100% certain how OK he was with me being there. I also wasn’t *that*… Continue reading
