This summer I landed an assignment for Canal Company. They asked me to take photos of Amsterdam for their new website and for advertisements and brochures. Yesterday, I took a couple of 'autumn' photos and here's one of them. I always get a little nervous when I have to take 'day' shots because I'm much more comfortable shooting at night, but I think this turned out pretty okay!
An incredible day out today with my photography pal, Kevin Wallace.
My wife bought me a cracking book for Christmas (actually, I bought it and asked her to wrap it - same thing, right?!) called "Photographing Scotland" by Dougie Cunningham. Lots of new places to go and shoot and we picked this one from the list - so glad we did! Just a magnificent scene with clear blue skies and icicles on the rocks in the waterfall it was so cold! Happy days!

I've been watching them build this modern residential tower in East Cambridge on my drives over the Leverett Circle Connector Bridge. Ever since they finished the facade I've been meaning to get over there on a good cloud day, and today ended up being that day. Took a walk around the building and decided to go front on with the entrance. Someone from the building came out and asked me what I was doing, once I explained what I was doing they let it ride and I was able to hang out until the best batch of clouds came through.

Up from the Chitina River, parked at the top of Hawkins glacier, looking at the south flank of the Twaharpies Mountains in the University Range of the St. Elias Mts. in Wrangell St. Elias National Park, Alaska.
Height is deceiving: that's 7,000 feet of vertical in the background to the top of Aello Peak, in the upper-right.
For plane buffs...that's noted Alaskan bush pilot Paul Claus and one of his completely stripped-down Cessna 185's; the thing has no electronics - just wires - is hand-propped, and weighs a little less than the Sunday paper.
Trip of a lifetime...we were 'pre-season' up there, and had Paul to ourselves for a week, flying all over St. Elias, Bagley Ice Field, Malaspina Glacier, Kayak Island...anywhere there was 50' or so to land.

I was hoping this lens would resolve as good as the Nikkor-S.C Auto 55mm ƒ1.2 does wide open or at ƒ2 but it doesn't quite make it. However - they sort of resemble Polaroids 👀

I love photographing Venford Falls but as I found out recently there is so much more to discover and photograph than just the waterfalls. Read about my discovery of Venford Brook and the images I took over on my blog: Venford Brook
Day 7 of a 9 day High Sierra backpacking adventure in Kings Canyon National Park. It had been breezy most of the morning, which was nice because it kept the mosquitoes down, but when the wind stopped for a short while I had to snap a photo of the reflections.

Bowerman's Nose has to be one of Dartmoor's most iconic tors. Its distinctive shape makes it a great focal point for compositions but is it worth photographing when the evening sky is clear and blue. In the blog this week I find out. See this image and what else I captured over on my blog at: Back to Bowerman's Nose

A foggy, January morning at my favorite cascade in Eno River State Park near Durham, North Carolina. This shot is similar to other compositions I've done at the same location, though I've never shot from this exact point, which is at the base of a rock that I have often climbed for these shots.
Thank you to everyone who takes the time to visit and offer their thoughts on my images.

Another failed attempt at a stunning sunset! The nights I don't / can't go out with my camera the sky lights up in magnificent shades of red and orange. When I do go out it looks promising and then fizzles to a few red-tinged cloud edges! Still, it's the thrill of the chase I suppose...
Not been this side of the Forth Bridge for a wee while - the two road bridges (old and new) can be seen in the distance beyond the magnificent mass of the rail bridge.

Black Dragon Pool Park
Old Town Of Lijiang
Yunnan Province, People's Republic Of China
"The water that feeds the five-hectare Black Dragon Pool bubbles up
from the foot of Elephant Hill. Here a stone bridge and the elegant
three-tiered Deyue Pavilion offer stunning prospects of the mountain,
trailing a wisp of cloud like a scarf on the breeze" -- Peter Moss
(an excerpt from the book "Lijiang, The Imperiled Utopia")
Well worth the cold, early morning hike for this one! Getting the hang of the graduated filters, shooting in RAW.

With a couple of friends having significant birthdays and an anniversary, a group of us headed to the Santa Barbara area for a long weekend of wine and music to celebrate. I was generally awake prior to sunrise and would just grab the camera for a stroll along the ocean, as it was only a quick walk from our rental. The mornings had low tide, but the sand was still damp for a nice reflection. We had beautiful weather, to say the least. Hoping to return the US-version of the Riviera for another visit someday.
Taken shortly after 6am on a fine July morning. The sun just makes its appearance on the Badlands National Park's Yellow Mounds, just causing the red in the background rocks to really pop. Enjoy!
Gorgeous autumn colours and blue sky refelcted in the pond of the Japanese Garden at Lauriston Castle, near Edinburgh, Scotland to make an abstract pattern (almost like a stained glass window).
I needed to set the circular polarizer to maximize the reflections from the water.
How long will you wait for the weather to improve before you give up and go home? I almost went home to soon when I recently visited Rippon Tor on Dartmoor. The weather was showing no sign of improving until this shot suddenly presented itself to me. Read the full story behind this image and see the other image I captured by reading my blog: Rippon Tor
A dull day and no woodpeckers in sight so took a pic of their kingdom instead.

Our trip to Ireland was wonderful, but included few days of any blue in the sky. Fortunately, one of our mornings did!
Ha'Penny is the oldest bridge that crosses the River Liffey in Dublin. The cost to cross the bridge back in the day, was a "half penny", hence the name. Despite its age, it is a very popular bridge and today people cross the river, ..., for free!

Rain is an uncommon event in Arizona dessert. On the first day of our trip there, in rained for about 36 hours straight causing our photo tour through the incredible Lower Antelope Canyon to be pushed to the next day and then a few more hours for the staff to make the hike suitable. What resulted was two days worth of tours crammed into one half-day's time. While the canyon was overrun with masses of humanity, the previous day's rain washed away the dust leaving vibrant colors and a lack of blowing sand (to the benefit of the cameras). A unique place, glad to have visited, but crazy experience. Enjoy!

Skradinski Buk waterfall in Krka national park, Croatia.
This panorama is composed from 15 images (5 brackets of 3 images each). I combined these into an HDR Pano using Lightroom, and processed the resulting RAW file (dng) in AuroraHDR, made some slight adjustments in Luminar (a first for me), cropped the image in half so I could save it (currently Skylum tools limit export to images less than 15000 pixels wide, so 25000 was too much) - but this was easily automatically combined using Photoshop's built in loading into stack script, where I added some sharpening using Lumenzia, some final touch up, and here it is.
Unfortunately being such high resolution, it isn't possible to convey the detail on social media. The 20,000 pixel cropped result is 100x the pixel count currently supported by Facebook/Flickr, meaning only 1 in 100 pixels make it to the output image - this means any output sharpening can only be a token effort because entire chunks of detail were lost in the downsizing. I already struggle with a 50MP pixel camera when I fill the frame and want to convey the detail I've captured on social media - already a struggle retaining just 1 in 16 pixels, but this really is an illustration of how current social media platforms prevent sharing of the detail in images.
In restrospect, HDR was not really needed here - I'd come down the valley and composed the shot using a telephoto lens allowing me to crop out the sun which was spreading light onto foliage a bit above this scene, so even my brightest exposure is not overexposed, meaning I likely gain no useful information from the darker exposures. I still use the extended data if I have it, regardless of whether it provides any benefit.
