Strobist: Four 580EXII on stands surrounding the feeder at 1/64 +1/3 at around 10" away. Waited until the ambient dropped well below the flash exposure, 1/200 @ f/11, ISO 100 to knock the background down. Triggered with Pocket Wizards.

It's always eventful around the hummingbird feeders. Ruby-throated hummingbirds are working on bulking up for their long journey to overwintering grounds in Central America.

This is a lovely raspberry-strawberry-ruby chocolate mousse cake on a chocolate crumble cookie base and covered with a ruby chocolate (plus a few drops of red colouring) ganache. I have to say it looks so "professional"! Amazed that I managed this, albeit under supervision from the instructor.

Strobist: Three 580EXII on stands surrounding the feeder at 1/64 +1/3 at around 10" away. Waited until the ambient dropped well below the flash exposure, 1/250 @ f/11, ISO 100 to knock the background to black. This left me about 10 minutes to shoot, triggering with Pocket Wizards.
Ruby Falls is a lovely waterfall as a whole, but when you really check out the details of it, it's pretty much amazing.

I made a spur of the moment decision to head up to Mt Rainier on Saturday, the weather was nice and with the late snowmelt I figured there might be some nice wildflowers to shoot. The problem was once I got to the gate, I handed the ranger my pass who smiled and said, "It's a free weekend so you can just hang onto that."
Groaning to myself, I made my way up to Paradise. Every trailhead I passed was overflowing with vehicles - this was a bad sign and I knew it. Paradise was a joke. The parking lots were completely full with many people driving around, cars were parked well into the Valley.
Heres the thing; being around hoards of people makes me incredibly anxious. Especially if I'm taking photos because I'm sure I look stupid doing it and I'm afraid I'll get in someones way. I know Paradise is not the place to go for solitude on any given day but this was madness. At one point I looked across the valley back up at Paradise, and it looked as if there were a ton of little ants crawling all over the trails.
I decided to spend some time on the Paradise River instead of hiking. These were places that I'd stop at while hiking long the Lakes Trail, or on the way home but never spending more then a few minutes with.
I ended up have a fairly peaceful day, my shooting only being interrupted once. No, I didn't get any hiking in, nor any wildflower shots, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Wednesday.

Say hi! to Ruby, my niece's English Bull Terrier. She's big, she's strong, she's as mad as a box of frogs, but her personality is as soft as a summer's sun ripened peach. My niece loves her to death and was mortified when Ruby accidentally bit me as we were playing together. Ruby gets so excited when she plays that she can nip you in her enthusiasm. She's only a year old, just a child really (with big teeth!). :-)
This was one of the helium filled balloons we had on our ruby wedding anniversary. We thought it would be a good idea to release one and hopefully find out how far it went. So, I wrote my mobile number and email on a piece of paper and sealed it in a plastic bag and attached to the balloon. We released it on 5th Sept 2010 from our garden in Bracknell, Berkshire.
About three weeks later I received a text to say it had been found...how far do you think it got ?
Well, it travelled to just north of Glasgow in Scotland, around 300 miles and I must say it surprised me as it headed of in a Westerly direction !
