Olympic National Park – Hoh Rain Forrest

Olympic NP Feb 2012 0594 v2Olympic National Park is a relatively short drive from Seattle and offers some amazing landscapes.  It is special because it has a diverse micro climate.  This creates an different weather pattern in various parts of the park.  One part of the park is a rain forrest and they get a ton of rain.  This is where your camera will fool you because you’ll never see greens like there are in ONP.  This is a true I found along a hiking trail with some very nice light hitting it.  IT was shot with a Phase One 60 mega pixel camera.

Stairway 1 – New Orleans

Here is another shot I did in New orleans.  We were visiting a museum and next to it was an old library with all sorts of beautiful wood.  I climbed the blocked off stairs of one portion of the library and turned around to see this.  I loved the pulled back plastic, the backlighting and the window and railing.  It just works really well.

New Orleans 1

I recently was in New Orleans scouting out locations for a workshop to be held in March 2016.  I love New Orleans but for me most of my good memories are clouded as a result of partying  bit too hard at Mardi Gras in my younger days.  So, this time I got to see the city in a new light and clearer focus.  This is an image I shot that I thought defined New Orleans.  Street Cars are very popular although to me they don’t look very efficient.  I liked this shot and because of the guy on the bike.  I worked it a bit in post processing to get that old time look. Shot with a Fuji X-T1.
