I presented this deck of slides to an enthusiastic house 12/10:
Obligatory selfie…
Elise and Lauren ran the Monticello 5K – more images here


Do these images cool you off?
The long exposure (which captures the dreamy water) requires VERY low ISO, Very tiny aperture (F/22), AND a 4x neutral density filter. Absent any one of these elements, and the shot would be way over-exposed. The frozen droplet stuff uses the very fastest shutter speed and very high ISO, else things would be UNDER exposed.
I’m using a Canon 5D Mark II – it has a big sensor, so I can take a photo like #1, and crop into it to get #2 – #5 – pretty amazing !
Julie and I drove to Crabtree Falls Sunday….
I noticed this HUGE pile of cans by the road – a natural photo-op…
The falls were gushing….
We passed this pooch on the trail…
More water…
The cans had been crushed while were hiking!
