Today we got slammed with 12+" of snow. This picture was taken before that snow. And...they are calling for more on Sunday/Monday. Woohoo!

Hope you like :)

this fella has been sitting in my "to be processed" file for a while! I bet we can't wait to see them again! Our snow totals came in at about 18" give or take a few... drifting, wind gusts made measuring tricky lol

ABOUT THIS IMAGE:
On this day, which was overcast and drizzly, I decided to drive north along the coast and capture long exposure images. Before getting some good images near San Simeon below Hearst Castle, I stopped at Harmony (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmony,_California) where behind the Glassworks building lies an old rusted Dodge truck. I have been photographing this truck off and on for 20 years and decided to try some new tricks. This is the result.
This image shows the upper, rotating part of a small, Christmas ornament. Below this there is a tea-light candle, the hot air of which forces the wind-turbine to rotate. Suspended from every other blade of the turbine is a small star-shaped piece of metal. The whole assembly is 75 mm x 75 mm.
The only source of illumination was the single tea-light candle beneath the assembly shown here; this resulted in a 80 second exposure.
Converted to mono in Silver Efex Pro and then split toning applied in Lightroom.
HMM to everyone and many thanks to everyone who views, faves and comments on this image and the others in my photostream.
Dug up this shot from the latest California trip. Met this colorful guy (or gal) at the Pismo Beach Pier on a drive from SF to LA. Shot at 300 mm focal length and am quite impressed with the sharpness from the Tamron 28-300mm lens.
Treated with Niksoftware D-Fine 2.0, Color Contrast Range, Reflector Effects, Viveza (Eye) and Sharpener Pro - each of which were applied subtly.

Yes, I intentionally asked her to hold the roses inverted. This was photographed at the Bakersfield AMTRAK station with only window light, no reflector, or flashes used.

Here we are, back again from exciting travels. Unexpected physical and emotional challenges were present through this trip which added yet another dynamic to an already busy vacation. Hiking, camping, and family were the true focus of this trip for me. The healing that would accompany that was what I was after. I’ve used my photography to that end as well and what better setting that the U.S. Rockies to stretch my creative muscles.
We split this trip up into two sections. The first section of the trip was spent in Estes Park, CO. There we camped at 8,100 feet at the Moraine Park Campground inside Rocky Mountain National Park. This is easily my favorite camping experience if only for the setting itself. More on that with later photos. The second half of the trip was spent just south of downtown Colorado Springs, CO camping at Cheyenne Mountain State Park. While RMNP has to be my favorite overall experience, my favorite campsite as far as layout goes to my walk-in campsite at CMSP. Again, more on that with more photo editing.
This first photo is an 8 shot panoramic I snapped of Nymph Lake, our first lake on the Emerald Lake Trail inside RMNP. The whole family made this leg of the hike, which made me very proud of everyone involved. It was a beautiful and windy day when we made the hike, which made the unseasonably warm weather easier to deal with. The views were all stunning and just kept getting better, but this sure was a great payoff view to start the trip off on our first hike. I can’t wait to get to more edits of this vacation so I can share them with you and relive this trip as well. Enjoy!
Another fantastic day out with the Ragged Victorians, Re-Enactment group.

Model Mayhem Jenna and I shot in her town. Her friend, Ashley, took us to this awesome location and described it as the house from Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

Not much of a picturesque sunset so I decided to go with a silhouette to enhance the colors that were there on the horizon.
