Berlin Wall

[singlepic id=1264 w=480 float=left] Regrettably, this is the best picture I have from when we visited the Berlin Wall.  I have a few others, but they’re all focused on some specific section of the wall. The falling of the wall is probably one of the earliest news events I remember (the… Continue reading

Eiffel Tower

[singlepic id=1263 h=480 float=left] How’s about a daytime picture of the Eiffel Tower.  Meh – honestly the night ones are all better if for no reason than they’re different – you can google/bing/yahoo image search and come up with dozens of daytime pictures of the Eiffel Tower that are all… Continue reading

Paris, France

[singlepic id=1262 h=480 float=left] Photo of Paris, France from the Eiffel Tourist Trap Tower.  I’m sure it’s not completely fair to label this as a picture of Paris when in reality it’s just a shot of a tiny bit of the city – Champ de Mars to be specific.  Somewhere… Continue reading

Bryce Canyon

[singlepic id=1238 h=480 float=left] 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… Continue reading

Bryce Canyon Hoodoos

[singlepic id=1237 w=480 float=left] 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… Continue reading

Willis Canyon

[singlepic id=1236 h=480 float=left] 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,… Continue reading

Willis Canyon

[singlepic id=1235 w=480 float=left] 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. … Continue reading

Navajo Arch

[singlepic id=1233 w=480 float=left] 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… Continue reading

Bull Valley Gorge

[singlepic id=1232 h=480 float=left] 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… Continue reading

Arches Primitive Trail 2

[singlepic id=1231 w=480 float=left] Like the picture from Wednesday, there’s nothing specifically important about this picture, it’s the 180 view from the location of the picture from Wednesday. Picture taken with Canon 60D, EF-S 17-85mm @ 24mm, f/8.0, various shutter, ISO 100.
