Iguazu
Iguazu Falls was just one of the many beautiful places we visited on our almost-three-week trip to South America. (A day-by-day account of our full trip is here, on my other website, visiblewind.com.) A wonderful quote regarding Iguazu is from Eleanor Roosevelt, who reportedly exclaimed “Poor Niagra”! It is spectacular, indeed. And huge! The above image […]
Road to Applecross
My wonderful photography workshop with Colin Homes this past March in Scotland left me with lots of beautiful images. And I believe there are still some “keepers” that I’ve yet to process. (I always process my images with Lightroom and often Photoshop as well. And for black and white images — like this one — I […]
Scotland, Color
This is a follow up to my post yesterday that highlighted a few monochrome images from my trip to Scotland this past April. This time, though, it’s a few color images I hadn’t processed previously. The image above is a 180-second exposure of Neist Point on the Isle of Skye. This view is to the […]
Scotland, Monochrome
My computer has been “out of service” for a while, but it’s (finally) back — and therefore I’m back too! Time to post some more images from my wonderful photo workshop in Scotland this past March with Colin Homes (one of my favorite photographers!). In this post, I’m highlighting some of my monochrome images. (More […]
Glencoe Snow & Falls
I’m slowly working my way through my photos from a wonderful photography workshop with one of my favorite photographers, Colin Homes, in the Scottish Highlands. (A few details about the trip, and a few photos, are here, in a previous blog post.) This Glencoe scene — of Buachaille Etive Mor in the distance, and small […]
Scotland Photography with Colin Homes
I had an absolutely wonderful trip to Scotland at the end of March. I took lots of photos, and am (finally!) posting a few of them here. More to come as I work through them. The trip was a workshop with one of my absolute favorite photographers, Colin Homes, of Edinburgh. (He has another Website here.) And it […]
Scottish Cathedral
Here’s another photo from our wonderful trip to Scotland in early September. This one is of St Giles’ Cathedral, in Edinburgh. I used a 10-stop neutral density filter (a Lee Big Stopper), which blocks out most of the light and makes for long exposure times, which, in turn, can capture wonderful patterns in clouds (or […]
Blue and Brown
And another image from my trip earlier this week to the California coastline. As with this image from the same trip, it’s from Garrapata State Park — one of my favorite places! I had taken images of these sea stacks on previous trips (here’s one that I like) — they’re particularly dramatic when hit by big […]
Urban Sky
This is my first long exposure photo of the “built environment.” Taken looking up at a cold and windy sky, at the National Air and Space Museum. It was a 30-second exposure, taken with a “Big Stopper” filter, which lets in only 1/10 of the available light, allowing for much longer exposures — and a […]
