I had a rough week at work last week, but that was OK because I had something to look forward to on Saturday morning - meeting Gaylon Keeling [ www.flickr.com/photos/gaylon/ ] for the first time and making my first visit to the Blackwater Conservation Area, a setting I only knew about through some of Gaylon’s excellent nature photography.
I had a great time hiking the trails with Gaylon and learned these lessons from him:
(1) You gotta shoot in RAW. (Your storage limits permitting.) (I’m not shooting in RAW yet. It might be time.)
(2) Spot metering is a great tool.
(3) If someone asks you unexpectedly to shoot a wedding, think long and hard about whether it’s something you want to do.
(4) Whatever you do, have fun doing it!
The place: GOA Beach
It’s a stunning sim — do visit while it’s here. Hera Zee’s regions tend to be beautifully fleeting.
Der Leuchtturm Falshöft wurde im Jahre 1910 nach 2-jähriger Bauzeit als Quermarken- und Orientierungsfeuer in Betrieb genommen.
Der Turm besteht aus sich nach oben verjüngten Gusseisen-Elementen der Isselburger Hütte, die beim Bau vor Ort verschraubt worden sind. Die Gründung des aus 2 Galerien bestehenden Leuchtturmes erfolgte auf einem rot gemauerten Sockel. Zuletzt diente der Turm nur noch als «Quermarkenfeuer» und wies mit seinen beiden Sektoren auf die Untiefen vor Kalkgrund und dem Bredgrund hin, welche aber ebenfalls durch den Leuchtturm Kalkgrund bezeichnet werden.
Nur 92 Jahre verrichtete das Leuchtfeuer Falshöft seinen aktiven Dienst für die Schifffahrt in der Flensburger Förde. In Zeiten von Navigation durch GPS haben die Leuchtfeuer an den Küsten in den letzten Jahren immer mehr an Bedeutung verloren. So wurde auch das Feuer des Leuchtturmes Falshöft am 1. März 2002 gelöscht.

„Tunge“ das heißt Zunge. Ja, und wie eine Zunge schiebt sich hier eine eine felsige Landspitzeam Ende des Steinfjorden hinein in den Nordatlantik. Zahllose Wasserpfützen und wassergefüllte Tümpel bieten dem Fotografen hier unzählige schöne Motive.
.
"Tunge" means tongue. Yes, and like a tongue, a rocky headland at the end of the Steinfjorden extends into the North Atlantic. Countless puddles and water-filled pools offer the photographer countless beautiful motifs.

The Canna Lily is one of my favorite flowers to shoot.
I am not a "flower photographer", but I do enjoy the challenge of getting a good flower shot. And while I don’t always know what kind of flower I am shooting, on a good day, I can usually tell a rose from a daisy.

This time I really had to go very close to the limit of 3" in order to capture the relevant details of the two camera bodies...
Sonoran Desert IV: swipe left for the full panorama. Another in a series from the Sonoran Desert in Arizona. I had a great spot picked out for shooting and when I arrived it was occupied by campers. Why do campers always like the prettiest spots, lol? Anyway, I went up a dirt road trying to get above this mountain lake and this was the best view I could find. Not the best foreground but the sky was fabulous with lots of red airglow, a bit of green airglow, as well as light pollution from Phoenix. Panorama, 24 mm, f/2.8, 15 sec., ISO 8,000.

Tumpak Sewu is a tiered waterfall that is located between the Pronojiwo District in East Java, Indonesia. The waterfall is overshadowed by Semeru, an active volcano and the highest mountain in Java. Tumpak Sewu means "a thousand waterfalls." From above it looks like the tree of life, from below it is immensely powerful, and from all angles, it is quite simply mindblowing and one of the most amazing locations in East Java.
