[singlepic id=1551 w=480 float=left] Crater Lake Sunrise with HDR. Yes, we got up early for this shot which, unless you know the camera is pointed East, is indistinguishable from a Sunset. Sunrises and sunsets are always kind of a crap-shoot because you have no control over them yet the entire… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1305 w=480 float=left] A droopy Tiger Lilly from along the Appalachian Trail. Like the Trilliums, these didn’t seem as full as I would expect – presumably due to being just a bit early. Picture taken with Sony a6000, SEL 18-200mm @ 200mm, 1/200 sec, f/11, ISO 100
