I have done pretty well in past years at the PhotoZone show. I was forced to skip it last year as I was in Chicago but I am back this year with three images. I should know early in the week how many of them, if any, make the cut. I entered the images below….
Getting all that I could out of this before all of the seeds fall off. This setup has been out on the bench for a week or better. Finally shot it today. 5D MK II, Canon 100mm F2.8 Macro. F6.3 @ 1/8 second. 79 images stacked in Zerene Stacker for depth of field. Final B/W done…

We went and wandered around the park for a while this afternoon and ran across a family of Chinese Geese that were pretty well behaved and didn’t mind the sound of the shutter clicking at them.

A few images from the recent trip to Georgia. (click to see larger images)
Some pre-race images from the race that wasn’t this weekend in Atlanta. Over an inch of rain and still coming down.
Got the car washed at Bridalveil Falls in North Carolina today. There is actually a turn off on the road to drive under the falls. The big thing I see missing down here on any of the rivers or waterfalls is the moss we have in Oregon. Also no soap at the carwash. Pretty cool…
A friend found a firmware enhancement for some of the Canon DSLR cameras including the 5D MK II that I use. Two of the features in it are HDR and stacking. There is the ability to combine both of them and the camera will shoot the frames needed. This old light meter is a combination of 24…
A couple of five image HDR shots using the 8mm Rokinon fisheye lens. I was using the 40D for these so the image filled the frame. This view is looking East towards the Oregon Cascade Range. When the clouds are not backed up you can see peaks The Three Sisters from this location.
I managed a first place tie today in Plant Life at the Nature Photographers Of The Pacific Northwest Spring meeting. I just love irises.
