I'm back! Sorry for not being on flickr for ages but I've been on a very exciting road trip round Utah with my friends and have some great photos to share with you all. . .
Including this beauty of Delicate Arch in Arches national park at sunset with the storm surrounding us in the background. There was only a minute of good sun so was pleased to catch this!
Moab, UT vacation adventure with RZR and Cayenne off roaring, hiking and searching for petroglyphs. Magnificent views, rock formations, and canyons. Some of the walls were 2000' from floor to top. We spent time in Arches National Park, Canyon Lands, White Rim Trail, Fins and Things trail, and BLM land. Even a flat tire 20 miles in on a off road didn't ruin our fun.
Just got back from a wee long trip to the National Parks in Utah, and was able to exercise my new Canon 5D Mark 3.
One of my main goals was to hike to Delicate Arch and catch the sunset, and I think it worked out pretty well.
The clouds muted the suns rays a little but it was worth it.
The three mile hike in 90 degree heat was a chore, but the reward was some memorable pictures.
Thanks for looking!

Do you ever just find yourself sitting in a pointless class at school and think of all the amazing things going on around you and how many candid photography moments your missing out on because school :(

Will be busy printing and framing in nice large, matted formats and frames and museum glass! Five of these photos will be printed on 40" x 60" floating wall mounted metal sheets! I think I know which--will share photos of the photos hanging on the walls!
And I am mounting some on plexiglass/acryllic--front mounting them! Some I am printing on lossy fuji-crystal archival paper too, and then front mounting 40"x60" versions to plexiglass--will send photos!
The secret to HDR photography is that you want people to say, "Woe dude--that's unreal!" And not, "Dude--that's not real!" "Unreal" is the word they use when they're trying to figure out the photo--what makes it cool--is it a photo? Is it painted? How'd it come to be--how'd you bend the light that way? "That's not real," is what they say if you have the saturation/HDR/ etc. turned up too high. :)
Some (almost) final edits for my Los Angeles Gallery Show! Printing them on metallic paper at 13" x 19" and mounting and framing them on a 4mm 18x24 white mat and 2" dark wood frame. Also printing some 40" x 70" whihc is over three feet by five feet! Wish you all could come (and hang out with the goddesses)!
Let me know your favs.!

Sony A1, Voigtlander 35mm f/2 APO
Taken at Delicate Arch, Arches National Park outside Moab, Utah
This lens is good, but it does not have the wow factor of the Voigtlander 65mm f/2 APO. It's super sharp across the entire frame at f/2 with some vignetting. It only gets slightly better as you stop down with less vignetting. By f/8 it diffracts. I typically shoot it around f/5.6 to f/7.1. If you want the signature Voigtlander sunstars, you must stop down to f/11, but at the cost of significant diffraction.
I came home with flowers in my hand for my girlfriend. No reason at all, just thought it would be nice to surprise her with a bouquet. After a while I noticed this young petal or leaf, so I started playing with my macro Lens again.
I think it came out well .. just like the dof of it, that’s why I called it delicate.
