It was interesting watching this excavator at work, filling in the trench the pipe was in. Although it couldn't really hold much in its bucket, it still had to go up to the top of the hill to fill it after it emptied the contents onto the pipe. Can't image how many trips up and down it made, and would have to make, to complete the job, each journey with its own level of risk...
I do believe Great Egret got a twofer mixed with salad. That's gotta be tricky to separate out the salad without losing the fish. Nice cool marine layer overcast at the coast this morning.
Osprey (Pandion haliaetus) Note how the Nictating Membrane covers and protects the eyes from the pine needles. (View on "Large" for detail)
Another shot from the Rochester Strobist Group meetup at the Rochester skate park.
Probably could have cropped this, but I worked hard to get an exposure that did not blow out the sky, so I want to make sure you get a good view of that sky. You can see the strobe placement in the photo, it is set to full power.

Another view of Devils Kitchen and Llyn Idwal, Snowdonia during a relatively calm ten minutes or so where the wind dropped to more managable levels. It soon returned to gale force but I managed to get a usuable longer exposure shot before it did.
I love Snowdonia, even before I was into photography it was a place I often visited just because it's so beautiful. Now I do like going out walking AND capture images there are just so many opportunities. I think I need to move there. I wonder if work would pay a relocation bonus if I worked from home (In Wales) remotely thus saving them heat and lighting bills in the office.... not sure I'd get much done with places like this on my doorstep though, maybe I have to hold off until retirement.

... to present as a balanced image, but the intent was not to balance. Is it a BW? Tried that. Crop to? Tried that. It's not a 16x9.
Would it have worked with camera between pipe and goyne? Next time.
But the 10stop ND earned its place in the bag, as does the cable release.
What are your thoughts?
I made my first visit to Palouse Falls not too long ago. I have seen plenty of photos of this place, but had never actually set foot there myself. The tricky thing about this falls is that pretty much every landscape photographer that goes there takes the same picture as the one before them, which is this comp from the cliffs overhead at either sunrise or sunset. This has produced some pretty fantastic images, but creatively speaking it gets a bit dull, so I wanted to make sure I tried something a bit different. I figured I would probably try to put together a Holga composite but that night I found myself wondering if I could take a star trail photo over the falls and then blend that with some sunrise photos. In other words, instead of using stitching to allow me to cover a wider swath of land than one single image could capture, why not use it to cover a longer swath of time than one exposure could encapsulate? It is a fascinating idea, especially as it could be used to really cover a long stretch of time, imagine say a year, all stitched together into a seamless composite. Ideas are kicking around in my head after this one.
Anyway, so I set up my Pentax and made a 25 minute exposure of the stars above the falls themselves. Then I got up the next morning and tried to set up in the same spot and shot the rest of the falls and the canyon at sunrise. I made six exposures altogether. The blending was a bit tricky, and I admit I am still getting better at that. This image has a rough spot or two, but I was tired of working on it and ready to move on. But I do like the idea of capturing the transition from night to day in a single image. I plan to try this a bit more.
And here are a couple of other links, one for an an image of Chip's, which is one of the more unique shots I have seen of this falls.
And over here, is a photographer treating waterfalls in a way I have never seen done before. The jury is still out on the execution of the idea, but I like the concept. Click on Black and White in the lower left and select Waterfalls.
Concert de tricky pour l'inauguration du 104 dans le nord de paris , une organisation assez desastreuse pour la file d'attente , mais un superbe lieu qui a livré un concert dans de très belles conditions.

This is tricky since i didn't choose any theme and i didn't have my camera, so let's just pretend the theme is "Past".
Past because this is where i used to take all my pictures, past because this colors will never be seen by me until next year, and past because it starts with "p" and ends with "ast".
I just started a new book called "the lost hero" by rick riordan...

Testing a preloved CANON RF 15-30mm f/4.5-6.3 IS ST lens from MBP. Tricky shooting, the local mini forest is not actively managed and chaotic. The paths wander as trees grow and local dog walkers trim branches. We had a lot of trees blown down in storms over the last few years.
Aberdeenshire (Scottish Gaelic: Siorrachd Obar Dheathain) is one of the 32 council areas of Scotland. It takes its name from the old County of Aberdeen which had substantially different boundaries. Modern Aberdeenshire includes all of what was once Kincardineshire, as well as part of Banffshire. The old boundaries are still officially used for a few purposes, namely land registration and lieutenancy. Aberdeenshire Council is headquartered at Woodhill House, in Aberdeen, making it the only Scottish council whose headquarters are located outside its jurisdiction. Aberdeen itself forms a different council area (Aberdeen City). Aberdeenshire borders onto Angus and Perth and Kinross to the south, Highland and Moray to the west and Aberdeen City to the east. Traditionally, it has been economically dependent upon the primary sector (agriculture, fishing, and forestry) and related processing industries. Over the last 40 years, the development of the oil and gas industry and associated service sector has broadened Aberdeenshire's economic base, and contributed to a rapid population growth of some 50% since 1975. Its land represents 8% of Scotland's overall territory. It covers an area of 6,313 square kilometres
