- www.kevin-palmer.com - Last week I chased a few thunderstorms that rolled off of the mountains in the afternoon. It was good rainbow weather, but they can't form in the middle of the day. Since the radius of a rainbow is always 42° and the center is directly opposite the sun (antisolar point), the sun must be at an altitude less than 42°. Around 5PM, the sun sank to 32° and this low rainbow appeared about 10° above the horizon. I stopped at this wetland and was able to cover my camera from the rain and capture a time lapse clip that I've tried many times to get. The extra colors (green, purple, green) at the bottom of the bow are called supernumeraries. It's a rare effect that happens when the raindrops are a specific diameter and mostly uniform in size. This complex light interference can't be explained by geometric optics. In fact, supernumerary rainbows played a part in the early 1800's in confirming that light is a wave, and not just made up of particles as previously thought.
went over to the Wadsworth/ Gurnee Woods Forest Preserve along Rte. 41 and Wadsworth St. and had a great time shooting sunset shots down the canoe launch of the Des Plaines River....some pretty neat cloud formations were up that day last week and was calm enough for the river to be quite still...i was really attracted how the late angled light was throwing some cool lighting over at the left side of the river bank...i wanted to stay and shoot some more but the forest ranger had to close down the launch area after sunset....pls.

Built in 1935 this, the St. Catherine of Siena Chapel was built upon the Camp Saint Malo grounds. The chapel would gain even more fame in 1993 as it received Pope John Paul II. This capture was taken a bit after sunrise, in the company of a moose mother and her calf - the latter giving me a great deal of pause. The recently opened Tahosa Coffee shop, resides behind the chapel had many tasty offerings!

Gwin Pyramid Tomb. William Gwin was the first United States Senator from California. He died in 1885 in what was obviously the middle of the Egyptian Revival Movement.

Safety in numbers, right? Without the guidance of our friend Nathan, I don’t think Robert and I would have attempted to shoot this difficult to access waterfall. But with Nathan’s reassurance we pushed forward and were happy that we did.
Many thanks to several photographers in the Pacific Northwest (Aaron Reed, Sheldon Nalos, Miles Morgan, Ryan Dyar, Darren White, Konejita, Jesse Estes, etc) for having an abundance of source material for me to strive to emulate during my brief foray in the region. I hope I can do the beauty of the area justice.
As a side note, the Pelican Pub and Brewery which is about a half-mile away from these cliffs is quite excellent (as is the clam chowder). However, I discovered that regardless of how truly delicious Grand Cru de Pelican (a very nice Belgian strong dark ale with particularly nice, lingering caramel undertones...the carbonation was quite awesome as well...) is, sufficient quantities made the hike out to these cliffs a bit more interesting than I normally prefer.

Fall Colors on an abandoned barn.
8082 N State Route 39, La Porte County, Indiana.
The barn was demolished possibly in 2017 and the corn field was extended out more toward the road.
went over to Lily Lake this morning just after sunrise and was quite pleased with the waters being so calm and saw hints of fall foliage on some of the trees already....a few more weeks and the colors should be really be more vibrant and stunning....can't wait.....pls. View On Black
Blackrock Cottage in Glencoe with the majestic Buachaille Etive Mor in the background dusted with snow.
“The goal of life is to make your heartbeat match the beat of the universe, to match your nature with Nature.”
Photo captured in Siuslaw National Forest – Cape Perpetua Scenic Area – Yachats, Oregon. Shown to the left is ‘Spouting Horn’. I waited for the tide to start to come in, in order to capture this photo. The horn only spouts as high tide comes into the chasm and when she does spout you can hear the ocean roar with her power.

Taken from the Valley View turn out. This is one of my favorite photo spots in Yosemite Valley.
This one made Explore!
First set of photos from the New Year and things are off to a great start with a lovely sunset over the western Twin City. To my luck, the city's lights came on just prior to the sun going down fully. Enjoy!
Winter visit to Concrete City with my photographer friends: Marty Straub and Curtis Salonick. Not a bad day after all; we didn't freeze and managed to capture some images!

This is a picture of small and very well hidden waterfall on the north coast of the island of São Miguel, Azores, Portugal in between the villages of Achada and Achadinha. Right next to this waterfall, a very nice garden is located, with is really worth a walk.
This picture was taken using a Canon EOS 7D, a Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5 L II lens and some Lee Filters (a circular polarizer at least, others I unfortunately do not remember). The image was taken in three separate shots and afterwards stitched together in Adobe Photoshop.

This past Sunday afternoon provided me with more excitement than you can shake a stick at.
I was about 9 hours into a photo trip and was just getting ready to revisit an area of old deserted houses, when things became more that a little interesting.
There are a number of abandoned structures in this immediate area and they all seemed to have "No Trespassing" signs mounted on wooden plaques that go into explicit details explaining how there is absolutely zero reason to enter these locations, and everyone who does so will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. This one was an exception.
Now at this point, my voice of reason tells me that a sign should be at this place too, but it had fallen into the tall grass, the wind blew it away, coyotes were using it as a ping pong paddle or aliens abducted it to do a knothole probe and never returned it. The point is: logic would dictate there should be a sign marking this property as well.
So as I'm sure any of you would do—*cough, cough*— I tuned out my voice of reason like a bad AM radio station. I go ahead and enter the property to give it a look-see and shoot some photos; stirring up two deer and a miffed barn owl in the process. I circled the buildings through the tall ground cover and took shots from various angles until I was satisfied.
At this point, I'd been on property for 15 to 20 minutes and I decided to go look inside to see if anything was worth photographing. The main front door was ajar and sporting a fairly fresh lock hasp that had been forced free of the door frame; a shiny and secured lock dangling uselessly from it.
The lower entry door was open roughly a foot and I headed in this direction. Just as a precursory, I poked my head through the gap of the door, and had just enough time to notice a brick mantle knocked over, a short flight of steps rising to the kitchen in the upper part of the house and everything decked out in dirty pea-green shag carpeting— yeah baby!
Almost immediately, I heard a strange sound, coming from inside near the steps leading up to the kitchen, that lasted maybe 2 seconds. It sounded like an old windup alarm clock with cotton stuffed inside its bells, clacking it's muted alarm weakly, as its spring was slowly winding down to a stop. My eyes darted to the wall by the steps and saw a funky little metal box sitting in a cubby hole in the wall with a coaxial cable trailing out of it, and on the side facing me, what appeared to be a flickering LED that immediately extinguished when the sound clipped off to silence.
My first thought was a homemade alarm setup. My second thought was the sound was just a nearby cabinet door creaking in the breeze, and the flickering light had been my imagination. My third thought was that this was some type of homemade hillbilly alarm system. I glanced around the door frame for a motion sensor, but quickly decided to head back to the truck and get on down the road.
Walking out to the gate, I could see the electric meter was pulled from the pole out front, but the house wiring was still intact and jumbled in such a fashion it was hard to determine at a glance, if it could be powering a jerry-rigged alarm inside.
Disappointed with the situation, I hopped into the truck, backed out and headed up over the rise in the road about a half mile further along and stopped to take some "perfectly legal" photos of the landscape.
It wasn't more than three minutes after I left the house that a red ATV materialized out of the heat haze about another half mile down the road from me, spewing an angry cloud of dust as it came. It closed to within a quarter mile and suddenly stopped in the road, staring me down like a bull contemplating whether to charge. We stayed like that, facing one another at a distance, for a good minute, before I finally put the truck in gear and headed right for them. The ATV reluctantly advanced in my direction. www.flickr.com/gp/73760601@N02/u58119
As the vehicle closed the distance, I saw it was a butch woman driving— probably about 65, but had the prematurely aged face of a heavy smoker and someone who has spent most of her life out in the elements. There was a fire in her eyes and she narrowed those burning oculars until they were little more than gleaming, wrinkled slits. She furrowed her brow at me as we passed one another, and in return, I smiled casually at her and waved, as if to say, "Sorry to spoil your fun, but you won't be catching me on your property today."
She begrudgingly waved back, but might as well have been shaking a disappointed fist at me.
Now I know some of you guys have been to photograph this particular house and I was wondering if you had gone inside without any issues. I have to say, this is a first for me. I always anticipate someone confronting me, but nothing resembling an alarm system. Maybe it was my imagination and sheer coincidence working together.
I wish I could say this was the end of my excitement for Sunday, but a few hours later I was in a whole different pickle. More later...

Even after its decapitation, the driftwood roots still had photographic potential when viewed in wider aspect. I hadn't planned to do another self-portrait session, but the limits of my camera angle and composition really demanded something else in the frame and the only fully mobile and posable option was to place myself in front of the glass again.
Using my 20mm f3.5 AIS and a tripod, I found myself going back to basics and scrambling to scale the tricky structure and pose before the timer ran out. The Nikon D300 alas, lacks a built-in IR port to use the inexpensive and useful ML-L3 remote. Of my several variations, I think this came out best.

Much Better if you take a look at it LARGE and a black background.
Took the drive today to Danbury, Connecticut to shoot some promotional material for Christy Thompson. She is a singer/songwriter from New York and is making moves with her Career.
Right after the shoot, she was going to a meeting to finish up getting her music produced, etc. She's got a few songs and videos up on her myspace, be sure to check those out.
She was an absolute blast to shoot. Very easy to work with and I had a great time.
We got so many good shots from this shoot, I'm having a hard time figuring out what ones to share with you guys here.
I'll be posting up a few more, that's for sure! Stay tuned!
