♫ "The Best Day Ever" – SpongeBob ♫
Mr. Sun came up and he smiled at me
Said it's gonna be a good one just wait and see
Jumped out of bed and I ran outside
Feeling so extra exsatisfied
It's the best day ever
(Best day ever)
It's the best day ever
(Best day ever)
I'm so busy got nothing to do
Spent the last two hours just tying my shoe
Every flower, every grain of sand
Is reaching out to shake my hand
Sometimes the little things start closing in on me
I stick my head out the window and I look around
Those clouds don't scare me, they can't disguise
This magic that's happening right before my eyes
Soon Mr. Moon will be shining bright
So the best day ever can last all night
Yes, the best day ever's gonna last all night now
Mono Lake on Christmas Day
Christmas Day arrived.
It would have been quite a bit of an understatement if I said it was cold… No, seriously. It was pitch black dark when I woke up, and at 21°F (-6°C) I was getting ready for the morning photo shoot.
You gotta do what you gotta do, like they say, right? I grabbed my gear and headed for the lake.
It was quite overcast, so I knew that the sky would not light up. Well, not only did it turn out to be the case but also it wasn’t getting any warmer for a while. I was busy keeping my hands warm between the shots. Oh well, what can you do? That’s how Mother Nature wanted it that morning.
It was not too windy, but it did not mean that the water calm. So, I ended up shooting quite a few per composition till I saw the decent reflections of the Tufa towers.
But then again, I was also enjoying the early morning of solitude (yes, not a single soul was at the lake that early) quite a bit. It was one of the reasons why I drove all the way out there.
I was working on a bracketed shot, trying to catch some flare ... some long shadows ... when into my scene ran these two surfer boys. It was a little rude, but I can understand their excitement. The waves were cranking! Besides, I ended up loving this shot, so they are forgiven. There wasn't much color to speak of so, in an unusual move for me, I went monochrome!
Happy Thursday Folks!!

Went out for a sunrise autumn shot this morning, but the sun did not make an appearance. So I pulled out this shot from our recent road trip. On this occasion, the sun did make an appearance as I strolled along the shoreline on the edge of the sand dune. A couple walking a dog passed me along the narrow beach ... and how fortunate to see one lone tree perched on the dune when I turned around to capture this shot!
Happy Sliders Sunday Everyone!!
I don't do a lot of HDR. I take them, play around with them ... but for the most part, I'm never happy with them. In the past, I've used Photomatix and then the new updated HDR feature in Photoshop CS5. Still not satisfied. Nik Software recently released HDR Efex Pro and I downloaded a trial to test it out. I have to say that I am blown away by this program. I re-ran some older images through it and I am really pleased with the results. The bad thing is, CS5 CRASHES and it runs incredibly SLOW (my five year old computer just isn't up to snuff with the new programs). The good news is, you can run it from Lightroom too ... though slow; it doesn't crash!!
I took this at the Chula Vista Marina. The sunrise was incredibly EPIC and my single shots just weren't capturing what I was seeing so I set up several HDR shots. This image is from three exposures. I LOVE the detail in the water; the color & the ripples. The program did a FANTASTIC job with the ghosting. There are ducks in the water so the ripples were different in all three images. The color on the horizon is spot on. The clouds are more epic here than they really were but I kind of like it like this!! And this really does look good in the lightbox!!

Happy Soundtrack Monday and well ... Just Happy Monday!!
Before I left for my Yosemite trip, I captured a sunrise over Lake Michigan. The sun wavered in and out of a dense layer of clouds on the horizon. I really loved this fabulous, dilapidated beach fence, silhouetted against the sky.
I'm still going through the 'one or two fence shots' I managed to capture on my California trip and can't decide which one to post ... so I'm pulling this one from the archives. Caught a bit of a cold at the tail end of my trip so I'll be rummaging through the fence group later this afternoon ... from the comfort of my couch.
Happy Fence Friday and hope everyone has an awesome weekend!!
