The Quest for Color–Results

First of all thanks everyone for coming out. We had a safe trip and all cameras returned home safely.

As with every trip I learned something new. I actually learned quite a few things on this trip – thanks for letting me pick your brains!

If you were at the event and you want to post a few of your masterpieces let me know and I’ll grant you access to update the thread. Or you can pop me a link to your pics and I’ll update the blog with your link.

Now as promised here are some of my shots. Double click to expand.

The trail.

Contrasting foreground and background. Played around with the short depth of field when I saw the opportunity.

How could I resist the moss?

I never get tired of these. No matter how many times you shoot them, no matter how many different perspectives. They are always different and always easy on the eyes.

The falls.

The bike trail down below. Yes, if you double click and expand the picture you can see it. This is a small section of the trail. Within the next week or so I’ll be exploring other sections. Bring your bike as well as your camera.

The Pans. I love these. Every one allows you to step into the picture.

Hope you like them. I had a great time taking them.

For those on the trip: Yes, I did look into nabbing the windmills. I have a venue but it is a pretty good distance and will require some walking. I cannot guarantee we will not enter some restricted zones. PM me and we’ll hammer out a date and meet up point.

Glen Onoko Shoot Recap

Action Shots

Some of our photags in action trying to nab that shot. What they wouldn’t do for that shot.

Timed Exposures

I couldn’t resist throwing in some timed-exposure shots. This will be the main focus of my next session. We’ll nab a venue with a lot of falls and practice on this technique.

The Trail

Some shots of what we had to do to get these shots. Definitely not a walk in the park.

Pans

One of the main reasons for this outing – the pans. Couldn’t pass up this venue for shots like this. Something to remember.

The Cliffs

I enlisted the help of one of the local tree spirits to help with these shots. It cost me a sandwich.

Hope you all had a great time. We couldn’t have asked for better weather.

Stay tuned for the next gig – timed exposures. Caio!

Attempt at some Geminids

Gallery

Tried to catch some of the Geminid fun but wasn’t fast enough on the shutter. In any event it wasn’t a complete waste. I was able to nab a few shots before the clouds rolled in. Let’s see what tonight brings.
