mountainvisions Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 I've made tons of progress into this years backlog over the last week. Yet, I still have hundreds of frames to process, and dozens more ready to upload! It was hard to pick just 3, and then I had Caney fighting for a spot as well. <P> None of these are new, actually 2 are from September but just processed and uploaded this week. <BR> <P> First, why I love being outdoors, and why I bother to carry my camera even when it would be easier not to. Absolutely amazing reward on the hike out after 3 days of fun. Yes it's real, and in fact it's a double rainbow if you look closely!!! Really it's a great lesson why to not cancel plans before the forecast isn't blue skies and sunshine!! Weather makes landscape photography a bit easier! We actually saw about 5 different rainbows on the hike out but never did find the leprechaun or the pot of gold (damn, I really wanted a few new lenses!) <P> <CENTER><a title="End Of The Rainbow Over The Castleated Ridge" href=" <img src="http://static.flickr.com/3035/3023703911_eb3553938d_d.jpg" border="0" /></a> <BR> <I> K10D, Sigma 10-20 @ 12mm, f/11, ISO160</I></CENTER> <BR> <P> <BR> <P>Â Second, the Adirondack Balloon Festival. A little different (I hope) than you typical balloon fest shot! <P> <CENTER><a title="2008 Adirondack Balloon Festival" href=" <img src="http://static.flickr.com/3296/3032596531_c23412542a_d.jpg" border="0" /> </a> <BR> <I> K10D, FA 28-70 f/4 @ 70mm, f/11, ISO 400</I></CENTER> <P> <BR> <P> <BR>Â Third, a little action from way back in June when we backpacked the Nundagao Ridge. Caney has not been in a photo in a while and was pretty adamant about being in one or chewing through a set of hiking boots per week till he was put in one (and yes, I just got to these...heck, I'm just getting to stuff from May!!). Â <P>As you can tell, he was being his usual bossy self and very irritated with the slowness of the pack, I was told, "Border Collies have photographic memories, thus there is no need to stop and take photos, I wish I was hiking with a family of dogs!" When we got back he didn't want to get back in the car and layed down in the road refusing to budge, I guess he really liked the weekend!: <P> <CENTER> <a title="For The Last Time Hurry Up...(Damn Biped Humans Are So Slow!!)" href=" <img src="http://static.flickr.com/3025/3021247226_623bc6d1ac_d.jpg" border="0"/> </a> <BR> <I> K20D, DA 21mm, f/8, ISO 320</I></CENTER> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainvisions Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Good thing I checked first Rose, I was about to hit submit on a separate thread...easy enough to cut and paste over to this one!!

jgredline Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Rose, love the sun shot! Wish it was larger. Post it 700 pix wide and I am sure it will really pop.. Justin, As soon as I saw that first image, I new it had to be that Sigma 10-20mm...Great photo!.

pj_vesterback Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 This shot is of the Split Rock Lighthouse along Superior's north shore. They light it every Nov 10 to honour the crew of the Edmund Fitz. It the only publicly scheduled lighting of the year. <a href=" title="The Split Rock Beacons by Fnawzm, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3201/3023046443_0fd7e11cb6_o.jpg" width="535" height="800" alt="The Split Rock Beacons" /></a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pj_vesterback Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 And another shot from the north shore. This is the morning sun on Hollow Rock. <a href=" title="Hollow Rock Morning by Fnawzm, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3195/3023873312_2f35ed160f_o.jpg" width="800" height="535" alt="Hollow Rock Morning" /></a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hagar Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Rose..that clock says 11:59 ! LOL. Beautiful start for this weeks POW. I like those mailboxes. That is indeed a nice lens <br> Justin: I like the rainbow.. and the photo of your boss is pretty neat, but that balloon shot is definitely ultra cool. <br> Javier: did you stretch out that poor egret's neck in photoshop? lol. Good bird photos.. love the woodpecker. <br> Patrick: even though I like both your shots.. I think the lighthouse is very special. Really neat shot. <br> Scot: Beautiful colors in that first shot, but the second one is my fave of the two :-) <br> I managed to take a few shots this week.. spent the week in Tucson, but never managed to get out around sunset.. I'm just going to have to go back sometime. <br><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael_elenko Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 It's been a good week for completing indoor processing tasks and getting back outside shooting. Getting that Bigma on Thursday was a bit of a motivator too I must admit. <br/> Two shots: This first one was yet another commute photograph during a glorious sunrise. That is the bottom part of Mt. Rainier way off in the middle. <img src="http://www.smugmug.com/photos/417945339_d9dDe-XL.jpg"/><br/> Friday Morning 2, K20D, Pentax DA12-24 @15mm, 1/45 @ f6.7, ISO 400</a> <br/> <br/> On my earlier Bigma post, Miserere suggested one particular picture should be converted to B&W. Well, here it is and thanks for the idea: <br/> <img src="http://www.smugmug.com/photos/417954490_AMduf-XL.jpg"/><br/> Downtown2, K20D, Sigma 50-500mm @160mm, 1/1500 @ f8, ISO 200</a> <br/>Â ME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hagar Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 This hummingbird was not shy.. I was trying to get some shots of the flowers, and he was about 3-4 feet away.. unfortunately all the camera setting were on manual<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_elenko Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 My eyes are feasting and it’s still Saturday for me. I'll need a bib by Sunday noon. @Justin - That balloon shot is fabulous and very creative. Kudos. @Javier: The reflections behind the egret are intoxicating. Love it. @Patrick V: The hues of graduated blue in your Split Rock shot cut by the beam and the rock texture = WOW. And the other morning shot is sweet. We should trade mornings some time. @Haig: your first shot has such rich color and compelling forms. A lot to look at in that frame. ME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hagar Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Thanks Michael.. that's a pretty gorgeous morning shot.. I am starting to like that lens a lot more :-). and the b/w conversion looks great! that is one sharp lens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
