I was driving home the other day earlier than usual and as I approached Boston the clouds coming over the city looked incredible. After raining all day there was brief break in the clouds, so I decided to race down to Carlton's Wharf chasing the last bit of light before the clouds once again took over the sun. I hit every light green on the way into East Boston and got there in record time. I was in and out in 15 mins before the heavy rain.

The lighting was brutal and I used an umbrella to shade the camera, luckily I was able to barely shade the filter stack without getting the umbrella in the frame. After a quick shot with only a grad ND I realized I needed a polarizer for the water, so I took all the filters out and used only the polarizer to figure out what 90 deg angle would kill the reflection on the water. I then reloaded all filters and dialed in the grad ND through live view. By using the square polarizer in this way, I'm able to carry only one filter holder with three slots, and I can shoot any combination of three filters without any damaging vignetting at 16mm. I typically use these combinations: ND and square CPL that I can spin to any angle, ND filter and CPL at right angle with grad ND on top, or ND with two grad ND's on top.

Camera: Canon 6d

Lens: Canon 16-35mm f/2.8L II at 16

Filter: LEE Big Stopper (3.0ND)

FiIter: LEE 100mm x 100mm CPL (right angle)

Filter: LEE 0.9 Hard GND

Settings: f/16, ISO 100, 111 secs

Nothing but rainy, gray skies around here these days. Here's a shot from a few months ago.

UPDATE: Thanks Flickr for including this in Explore. The funny thing about this sunset is that I almost walked away from it. 15 minutes earlier it looked like the light show was done. I had already gotten some nice shots (www.craiggoodwinphoto.com/Spokane-River-Scenes/i-t6ZrgND/A) and was ready to pack it in when I remembered my "rule" - always wait for 15 minutes after the sun sets because you never know what might happen. I established the rule after walking away from the most epic sunset I've ever seen at Canon Beach in Oregon. I saw it from the parking lot, 1/4 mile walk from haystack rock. This shot, www.flickr.com/photos/craiggoodwin2/15754984514/, was also a product of the 15-minute rule.

In this shot, what started like this, www.craiggoodwinphoto.com/Spokane-River-Scenes/i-Kz3wjxh/A, progressed to this, www.craiggoodwinphoto.com/Landscapes/Landscapes-1/i-hsztt..., then the above scene, and finally this, www.flickr.com/photos/craiggoodwin2/15480804171/.

Another note, this spot is just a few miles from my house. I have a theory that our best pictures are often the ones we take near home, because we are so familiar with these environemnts. We are, by proximity, students of the seasons and light in these places, and therefore we see beauty that most would pass by and disregard. I know that the geese often fly over in the evening, www.flickr.com/photos/craiggoodwin2/15754984514/, and the morning, www.craiggoodwinphoto.com/Landscapes/Landscapes-1/i-M5Vh2..., so I keep my shutter speed up and use longer focal lengths. I know that the dam closes its gates in the summer and fall so the water is like glass, www.craiggoodwinphoto.com/Landscapes/Landscapes-1/i-2R8vJ.... I know that this time of year the sun rises shortly after I drop my daughter off at school so I keep my camera at the ready, www.flickr.com/photos/craiggoodwin2/16237710661/, just in case I see some color on the horizon, www.flickr.com/photos/craiggoodwin2/16243000505/in/photos....

One of the things I love about photography is that it makes us students of a place and gives us the opportunity to offer a witness to the beauty of our communities. I sometimes feel jealous of the nomadic lives of full-time photographers who follow the annual route of national parks and iconic locations around the U.S.. But more often I'm grateful to be rooted in a place and to have my art be a product of this rootedness and a contribution to the fabric of community life.

Everywhere you look in Antarctica are dramatic ice vistas. This image is in color but has the drama of black and white. The calm reflection makes it very symmetrical.

I am going to bore you with some shots from this Grist Mill located in Babcock State Park in WV over the next few weeks *smile*. When Bill and I arrived there on Friday night the first thing we noticed was how low the water was...sigh. If the water tables had been up the whole right side of that big boulder would've been a waterfall. But if I have said it once, I have said it a 1000 times (ask Bill ~ HA!), you've got to make lemonade out of lemons. Without the huge flow of water the pond in front became a wonderful reflection pool. Ba BAM!

**The colors were nice down there, not brilliant, but enough that if I so chose I could've saturated this whole scene. I chose to leave the colors pretty much as found for my own artistic preference on this shot, but one of this scene a bit more saturated will be coming. ;-)~

Thanks for looking, and be sure to check out my other shots from my Autumn series. :-)

This is a photo of reflections on the surface of water in an aluminum pot.

Reflections and Sunset, Allonby Bay, between Mawbray and Allonby on the Cumbrian coast. This is how you can get different compostions by just moving about 10ft and looking the other way. The same rocks as the last shot, but this time looking over the Solway towards Criffel in Galloway.

An early morning photograph capturing the calm, reflective background of the Middle Fork, San Joaquin River. The reason i call this 'tranquil' is the calm, quiet feel photographing this compared to the harsh, contrasting basaltic column postpiles.

In the train going to New York to see the exhibition "Capa in color" at the International center of photography. Playing with my iphone trying to catch buildings, motion and reflections.

This one got all of the above :-)
