"Changing Perspektives"
Unripe Toyon berries, and seeds within contain dangerous levels of a poisonous cyanide-forming compound, which if eaten can sicken or kill the consumer of the berries, whether human, bird, or other animals. … Eat a handful of ripe Toyon berries and you may get sick; eat a pound and you may die! Native Americans would cook the berries which neutralized the poisons and would make a beverage from them.

Sunrise over Portknockie on Scotland's Moray Firth. Now that we have passed the shortest day of the year, I am really noticing how quickly the change in the light is happening. Its only been 2 weeks and already I am needing to be out the door at least a half an hour earlier to find a composition and catch the sunrise.
I'm still churning through my archives. On a personal note, my elbow is healing quickly, so I should be out taking photos again very, very soon. I'm really excited about that.
Anyway, this was taken this spring. I know I've said this to the point of cliche, but shooting here was fairly challenging. It can be really, really difficult to find good compositions when you're shooting landscape astrophotography, mostly because the primary foreground object and the primary sky object are immovable, unless you have the luxury of a forklift or the ability to wait 12 hours for the sky to move to a better position, neither of which happened to be available to me in this case. Or ever.
I was shooting uphill from this car, but I still wanted to get a substantial amount of the sky in my shot, all while shooting in landscape format. This required me to shoot two exposures, one that was mostly sky and a little bit of the horizon, and the other which pretty much had the foreground you see here. I then combined the exposures in PS, resulting in a final photo that's a little bit taller than the 2:3 aspect ratio I usually use, although it wouldn't take much of a crop to get it to 2:3.
I'm sure I probably blew my focus on those wildflowers in the foreground anyway, since I was shooting at 24mm and they were right in front of my face (and I had to get low because my foreground object was downhill from me), but the 25-mph winds and the fact that this was a 20-second exposure at high ISO certainly did nothing to unblur the flowers. But, honestly, they weren't really a part of my vision for this photo anyway.
