Photo prise par mon petit Damien lors de la visite du Pont de Gau, parc ornithologique en Camargue à les-Saintes-Maries-de-la-mer en août dernier....
Je dédie ces photos à mon ami Jean-Paul Neveu qui connais bien ce parc et qu'il me l'avais conseillé par le passé.
In mid-December the sun barely gets a little over 30 degrees high by mid-day, and it only spends a little over an hour that high. So mornings and afternoons involve a long, slow ascent of the sun. Photographers have a lot more time to walk around and capture Death Valley's features in low angle sidelight. That's particularly useful in places where you need time to walk around to various compositions.
The low angle "winter light" in December provides perfect conditions to pursue dramatic textures, leading lines, and subjects in favorable light, so we have a little more focus on great black and white compositions at this time of year. This year we have great dark sky night conditions to pursue the Geminid meteor shower as well, so practice techniques for capturing meteor shower composite images and time-lapse videos.

I still haven't post-processed most of my images from Bodie in June. We're meeting more photographers this Friday, and I have website updates to work on (we just released next year's Bodie workshops for deposit/reservation). I'll get to more photos when we receive date reservations for Bodie next year, usually in early November.
Timing is often critical in moving about Yosemite Valley efficiently and productively in its peak seasons.

Another image in vertical presentation of my one evening being able to see the Milky Way while we were away on holidays in July...along the Lake Huron shore near Howdenvale. The moon was visible off to the right so it helped to light up the bay.
One clonal ring of creosote was estimated to be over 12.000 years old, making it one of the oldest living clonal organisms on the planet.
I almost forgot about this cloud. It was too windy to catch its reflection in the lake. We'll be back out here with more photographers this weekend.
From our Bodie - Mono Lake - Yosemite landscape and night photography workshop last week. We'll be back in Yosemite for fall colors with another group of photographers in early November!
Stormy days are the best in Bodie State Historic Park.
We're already looking at dates for our 2026 night photography workshops in Bodie! Contact us to get on our list of folks that we'll be notifying upon release.
The deep thumping sound and sight of this water feature was enhanced by the dancing yellow foam in the channel near its base. The foam had a yellow color to it, apparently from pollen. The pollen seemed to act like a thickening agent, changing the viscosity of the water surface where it was concentrated.
Lots of dodder too. A parasiotic plant that's native to the Mojave exosystem, dodder may simply be responding to greater than average plant growth. Or the mild winter may have contributed to greater survival.
Mountains eroding, the debris slowly grinding down an alluvial slope, and sand sorted and deposited by wind below.
I'm not usually a fan of heavy-handed post-processing effects, but when I saw these two types of geography pitted against each other (separated by the process that ties them together), the effective spotlight on each made sense.
The pinhole effect that my black and white conversion software presented was too harsh, so I made the black and white conversion first, then created a more subtle vignette/pinhole effect in Lightroom.

We have several days of potential rain showers in the forecast... summer monsoon moisture has entered the room!
Living within easy driving distance and having visited this remote area for two decades, sometimes several times a year, we've identified the prime seasons and times of day to be here for the best light. These days other workshops sometimes come here (hopefully in high clearance 4WD vehicles with off-road tires), but they are rarely are out there for the best light (which is great for us, not having people all over the dunes).
Bleached creosote trunks in the sun's last light of the day, against deep shadows and white clay from ancient lakes.
This is what I envisioned when I saw these creosote bushes in bright white sunlight against the deep dune shadows. A deliberate photograph happens in your mind first. The rest is just the details on how you get there.
Wind and clouds can create dramatic conditions in the basin and range geography in the Great Basin. Fortunately you often don't have to be in the path of the dust.
