Our trip today took us to Pennard Castle and the Three Cliffs Bay - you can see the cliffs to the left. We were very fortunate to have good weather which made all the difference. The Three Cliffs Bay is a popular site among photographers and I was able to see why - the scenery is fantastic. I think what made this shot was me is that the clouds came out not long after we got to the cliffs, creating the amazing sky you see here. Strangely, I didn't take any long exposure shots as planned - I didn't really have to.
As you would see from the shot details I also got to use a wide angle lens today - the sigma 10 - 20mm; it proved to be just fantastic!
I've added one more shot in the comments of Lena under the same amazing sky. That was taking using the D300s (as promised).
Hope you're all having a great weekend. I shall catch up with your streams when I get back to base!

Willie and I had grand plans of exploring as much of the Banff National Park and surrounding area as we could. Kananaskis County and Jasper, Yoho, and Kootenay National Parks are all nearby. Unfortunately, a giant snow storm hit and impeded our ability to travel beyond Banff. We spent more sunrises than we would have liked visiting Vermillion Lakes, trying to capture icy mountain reflections with a pink and red sky.
There are actually 3 Vermillion Lakes and they're all one right after another. I imagine during floods, they turn into one giant lake. The First Vermillion Lake was mostly frozen by the time we arrived and the Third Vermillion Lake, while pretty, didn't have much exciting shoreline for us to explore. Second Vermillion Lake, however, became our go to sunrise location and we visited on 3 separate occassions.
When we woke for this morning, we weren't sure if the sky would be entirely clouded over, or entirely clear but we hopped out of bed and drove to the lake anyways. On the drive we noticed that they sky was already glowing purple, illuminated in pre-sunrise glory. This early burn, we knew meant that a beautiful sunrise was coming. Sure enough, once the sun began to approach the horizon, it lit the clouds in beautiful pinks, oranges, and reds. Light beams even managed to streak out from behind Mt. Rundle, giving off a divine appearance.

This structure is at National Harbor, Maryland. It was taken at sunset. I just love the rays and the light hitting the structures and casting the giant shadows.
This shot was taken on the heather moors between Blanchland and Stanhope on the Durham / Northumberland border close to where I live in England. I saw that there was an opportunity for a shot as the sun was setting but could find no interest in the foreground. I walked around and finally found this rock which was small but using a low position and a wide angle was able to make it look bigger. Apart from the obvious sun flare (not the sun burst - I like that, but the flare spots) which is hard to avoid with these shots, I was very pleased with it. Sometimes sun flare can look OK, personal taste I guess.
Used a Lee 0.9 hard grad filter.

Since the Middle Ages the chateau in Arc-en-Barrois has belonged to princes, royal families, and French nobility. During the 1789 revolution part of the chateau was destroyed and later confiscated during the First Republic. At the restoration of the monarchy in 1830, King Louis-Philippe (1830-1848), member of the Orleans family, resumed ownership of the chateau and its vast forests. The King later transferred the property to his sister, Princess Adelaide d'Orleans. Between 1844 and 1848, Princess Adelaide rebuilt Château d'Arc-En-Barrois into its current form to serve as a hunting lodge. During World War I, the chateau served as a temporary English hospital, under the supervison of Miss Bromley-Martin. Later on, during World War II, the chateau briefly served as a local Nazi headquarters. In 2001, the chateau was bought by a Dutch shipping magnate who completely renovated the building to convert it into a Luxury Hotel.

Steptoe Butte is a famous landscape photographers paradise. I'd never been there before but had heard about the place for many years. I was not alone. Vans full of workshop photographers descended upon the site and stood tripod leg to tripod leg. I shot the sunset the day before and tried again this morning for the sunrise. Unfortunately the sunrise was at 4:59 am so I had to get up at 4:00 and get my wits about me to face the inevitable herd of shutterbugs. And, in fact, they were already lined up waiting to capture the magical orb ascending above the horizon. Well, it wasn't particularly dramatic so immediately after the sun hit the cloud line it was back on the bus for them. But about a half an hour later the sun started peeking through the clouds at various places and only myself and one other person were there for this interesting effect. Patience sometimes does pay off.

The beach always reminds me of holidays and we are about to leave for a short break. Hopefully the sun will shine as in this shot from last night at Largs.

This image was taken on June 1st 2008. This was the day that I had recieved my first DSRL. I had been shooting with a Panasonic Lunix before this, that I absolutely loved.... but, I had decided that I needed a true DSRL with the flexablilty of lens changing.
A week or so before this image was taken I had ordered a brand new Canon 40d with a 50mm 1.8 prime lens. When this baby arrived I was so excited. Taking pictures of everything. We were hanging out in the back yard when it looked like in the distance there were some cool clouds hanging around. I decided to head over to the nearest bike bridge to see what it looked like. So happy that I decided to do this. I remember coming back from the bridge and looking at the pictures I had just captured.... and I just smiled. I had witnessed one of the better skies I have seen. It was an awesome day and and awesome feeling.
Photography has some great personalities. It can bring you way up and it can bring you way down. Those times that are frustrating only make those godspeak times that much better. That's why we keep on heading out!
I had posted another similar image from this night about a year ago. Not sure which one I like better. The sun was coming out of the clouds more on this one..
Hope you like!

Rusty old plow and trailer deep in the forest of Ojibway Park in Windsor Ontario. They've been there so long the trees have grown into and over them.
The strong rays of the sun shine brightly through the clouds above the island of Maui, Hawaii. The photograph was taken by Skott Reader at Iao Valley State Park. This peaceful 4,000-acre, 10-mile long park is located in Central Maui just west of Wailuku,
A beautiful sunset over Lake Norman a few weeks ago. There had been a long period of rainy and overcast days for weeks and this was the first time seeing sunlight and boy was it a great show. It was extremely windy on the lake that day but worth every minute. This was taken at Ramsey Creek Park in Cornelius NC.

Today was a shit day. Both my main photo and my back-up photo were foiled. So I acted like a pissy child and pouted for a little while, ate some lasagna and drank a beer. Then I got my shit together, rolled the proverbial sleeves, and swung away. On a serious note though, that is what I love about this project. I'm finding out who I am. I'm not crazy about this one, but considering the day, it's a damn mountain top, and I'm proud of it. And that's all I ever really hoped for.
