Shot this on the way home the day I got my Canon EOS R5 this was one of the test shots off the new camera, while at the camera store I also bought a new carbon fiber Gitzo tripod, and a Gitzo ball head to go with it, so had a great time with a new camera and tripod :) forgot to get a cable release while i was there so this was shot on self timer so it would not get camera shake from pressing the button , shutter speed at 8 seconds. I would like to note all my shots are setup in manual mode, I do use auto focus, but that is all, so it felt strange to use the self timer to fire the shot. Canons auto focus is lightning fast and works great so mostly do use the auto focus, it does have a problem with very low light focusing. so like on my 5d mark IV in very low light have to manual focus, A, three stop glass graduated neutral density filter was used to even out the light in the sky to the light in the darker zones, final corrections done in photoshop
Early morning moodiness and reflections of the Seattle skyline on Lake Union with fog hovering above the skyscrapers. The image was captured around 5:50am. The conditions were very foggy, but with just enough fog hovering in the sky to reveal the skyline with the downtown buildings below, complemented by their illumination reflected on Lake Union in the foreground. This was a 30-second exposure which creates the long streaks of colorful lights reflected on the surface of the lake. In effect, the goal was to capture the mood, which contrasts with the feel of a sunrise or sunset. This mood or atmosphere is darker, more gothic, and enigmatic.

Arrived In Seattle a bit before midday, no time to waste, onto a bus for a tour of the city and its sites. The bus was more than an hour late, the traffic was impossible, the stops brief and the commentary intense, and still I liked the feel of this city. Back at the hotel I booked a tour to Mount Rainier National Park for the next day.

December 1, 2020 was, unbelievably, the 11th anniversary of TIA International Photography. This was the day that the City of Seattle registered TIA as a licensed sole proprietorship in the business of offering professional photography services back in 2009.
This message is just a greeting of gratitude for all of you who have been perpetually supportive and encouraging of my objectives since TIA's inception.
To commemorate the occasion, this special, short timelapse video features an activity that I used to do so often in my earlier years -- driving around Seattle and contemplating potential photo opportunities!
I can't believe it's been 11 years, especially when I didn't think I could sustain this small business after one year.

This is a shot of downtown Seattle taken last weekend. Using the 24-120 lens, which is pretty good for a travel lens!

Seattle is known for it's love of coffee and for foisting Starbucks Coffee on the world. Although this coffee house is not a Starbucks, it is a popular hangout. The mural honors Kevin Barnett, a comedian who died last year. The artist is tenhun, who owns Statix, a nearby clothing store and also teaches classes on how to paint murals, etc.
The saying goes "It always rains in Seattle" and this goes to show that sometimes it just rains all around. Sporting a silver lining and some pink hues this foreboding cloud was captured at the Heritage Park in Kirkland Washington
This past weekend, I returned to a few places that I photographed a year or so ago. Last year I shot them with the Chamonix, this time around it was with the RB67.
It was incredibly dark. I think an Ev of 6ish. And I had no tripod. I had Bergger 400 and Foma Retropan 320, so I chose Bergger since I knew I could push it a little bit.
I still retained the Deep Yellow filter, of course. And the shots ended up seeming more like nighttime than just after sunrise. I'm very okay with that.
