DavidTriplett Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) Basic Guidelines: In the strictest sense, nature photography should not include "hand of man elements". Please refrain from images with buildings or human made structures like roads, fences, walls. Pets are not permitted. Captive subjects in zoos, arboretums, or aquariums are permitted, but must be declared, and must focus on the subject, not the captivity. Images with obvious human made elements will likely be deleted from the thread, with an explanation to the photographer. Guidelines are based on PSA rules governing Nature photography which also cover the Nature Forum. Keep your image at/under 1000 pixels on the long axis for in-line viewing. Note that this includes photos hosted off-site at Flicker, Photobucket, your own site, etc Each member please post no more than just one image to this weekly thread per week. If the information is available, many members appreciate information on your approach to making the image and the names, both common and scientific, of the subject(s). However, while encouraged, these are not required as a component of your contributions. More mountain wildflowers. These are such a wonderful break from our drought-stricken norm that I simply can't help myself coming back to them.

JDMvW Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Did you use a polarizing filter to get that deep blue sky? I'm not above doing so, but in this case it was just underexposure (I usually shot KII at "ASA" 32 for more saturation) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bgelfand Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Sunrise in Antarctica [ATTACH=full]1435130[/ATTACH] I wonder what is causing the ripples around that chunk of floating ice. It seems to be centered on the ice chunk itself, but is too small if the whole chunk had just been dropped in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShunCheung Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 I wonder what is causing the ripples around that chunk of floating ice. It seems to be centered on the ice chunk itself, but is too small if the whole chunk had just been dropped in. The ice chunk was bobbing up and down due to the waves, and that up and down movement was generating the ripples. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
