This is a so-so picture of the fountain that is / was part of the garden outside the radiology building at MSU. I think somewhere I have one that I like a bit more that was taken at night, but that’s irrelevant now. For a few years when I was… Continue reading
Older picture from Busch Gardens in Florida from back in the day of the C-2040z. I probably have a dozen pictures of these guys that turned out quite good given the megapixel limitations of the camera being used. Granted, they’re of birds that naturally look very pretty and are taken… Continue reading
The Hancock Building in Chicago, good only for it’s interesting perspective. Taken with my favorite camera to gripe about, the SX130. I can’t complain too much, as this was taken in the dark, handheld. Picture taken with Canon SX130 IS, lens at 5mm (36mm equiv), f/3.4, 1.0 sec, ISO 1600
Another from Bryce – this was another that wasn’t really thought out, but I like how it turned out. This was on the Queen’s Garden hike. It was actually surprisingly dark at the bottom of the canyon as evidence by the ISO 400 need just to keep the shutter speed… Continue reading
This picture is from the day at Bryce Canyon in Utah. As mentioned when I posted the bulk of the pictures before, this was mostly a midday visit and getting good pictures was difficult. On one hand, the contrast was very high due to the bright sun and abundance of… Continue reading
Second shot from in Willis Canyon, taken about 5 hours later and showing off the fun subjective portion of photography. It’s the same place as the previous picture, and the color balance of both looks “right” to me. This one was taken late in the evening, so the yellow sunset… Continue reading
I was all excited to post a few more pictures of the slot canyons in Grand Staircase Escalante, but as it turns out, I have already posted what I thought were the best shots back here. None the less here’s one more… this is Willis Canyon. It wasn’t a major… Continue reading
This is your comedic interlude before some pictures of slot canyons in Grand Staircase Escalante. It’s a cow. An angry looking cow. On a wall. Watching over a toilet. I have no further details or better explanation. Picture taken with Sony a6000, E PS 16-50mm lens @ 16mm, f/3.5, 1/30… Continue reading
Back to Arches, because I was told that this should be today’s picture. This is from inside Navajo Arch. We were there just after rain, so there was a small pond going on. I was able to get past the water, thanks in part to waterproof boots and for most… Continue reading
I skipped over a chunk of the Zion Narrows and Grand Canyon pictures because, though they were very cool places to hike, we were not there at a time of day that really made good photos. This one is from Bull Valley Gorge, a small slot canyon in Grand Staircase… Continue reading
