[singlepic id=1780 w=480 float=left] One of the black bears we saw in Yellowstone. Looking back on these pictures, I wish I had a better camera (actually, better lens would have been preferable) and had shot them all as RAW files. There was probably a quarter million dollars in lenses* standing… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1779 w=640] 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… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1778 w=480 float=left] One of the waterfalls in the Smoky Mountains on the trail to Rainbow Falls. This has been about the only place I’ve visited where I really like the warmer tone to the pictures. Typically, I seem to like everything to lean toward the blue-magenta area of… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1777 w=480 float=left] One of the tulips in Mark’s yard from last spring. I did some experimenting with reducing the depth of field, but ended up liking the version with slight definition in the grass better. Picture taken with Sony a6000, SEL 18-200mm lens @ 88mm, 1/10 sec shutter,… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1775 h=480 float=left] I had a concept in mind for this picture, but I think I didn’t execute it quite right. I probably should have poked around a bit more to find a better flower patch without the little tree to the right. Also, the shot ended up busier… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1774 h=480 float=left] This was an unmarked side-waterfall along the White River Trail up toward Mt. Rainier. I like the end product better than I thought I would – should have taken the time to pull out the tripod, because the 0.8 second shutter speed is pretty obvious. Picture… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1773 w=480 float=left] Lake of the Angels campsite – this was probably the coolest campsite I’ve stayed at. Picture taken with Sony a6000, SEL 18-200mm lens @ 200mm, 1/80 sec, f/16, ISO 100
[singlepic id=1768 h=480 float=left] This was one of the shots that comprised the previous moon HDR pic. The images in that one weren’t really that well aligned, so everything was quite soft. This one didn’t have quite the detail on the edges, but overall it’s a much better picture. Picture… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1682 w=480 float=left] Last one before I post the entire batch for real, and it’s a picture of dirt. Sand, to be more accurate, which I happened to like the looks of as the tide started to come in. Picture taken with Sony a6000, SEL18200 lens @ 53mm, 1/60… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1681 w=480 float=left] The young kid along the shore said this was a jellyfish egg pouch, but I think it’s actually a moon jellyfish. There weren’t a huge number of these washing up, but a few did come in with the tide. This was one of the more ‘whole’… Continue reading
