I like to take back roads when I can and after shooting in Zion National Park last weekend I took some back roads and stumbled upon the scene. A rusty tractor in the field. Looks like it just died in place and was never touched again.
Yesterday I was doing video shoot comparing two new cameras for Luminous-landscape. The shoot went well and we compared the two hot cameras today, the fuji X-T1 and the Olympus O-EM1. On the easy back for an amazing shoot in Zion National Park we stumbled upon what could be best described as a tourist trap. It was all roped of and obviously closed for the season. However that didn’t stop me from shooting from the road and parking lot. I was setting up the shot and just like that a rooster appeared in the frame at the exact correct position. I did the shot and thanked the rooster. Seem the rooster has done this before.
Two years ago I lead a workshop in Bali. We visited some amazing location and one of these was the Tanah Lot Temple. This temple is joined to the land by a rock and can only be accessed at low tide. Sunsets here are spectacular.
Today is a spring like day. Tomorrow we are supposed to get 3 inches of snow. This is the way I pinch myself so I am ready for the cold again.
Been very busy on a numb rod projects and haven’t done os well this past week keeping up with the posts here. I was once again going through my old images and came upon one I like a lot. This is from a project I am still working on called Rusty Abstracts. Rust and old peeling paint make for some great images.
I just love ice. And, there is not better place than Antarctica to photograph icebergs. This one with the dark sky caught my eye and lens.
There is nothing better than being amongst some amazing icebergs and have a whale sighting. For this image we were cruising in the iceberg graveyard when a humpback surfaces and the image was made even better by the iceberg background. This is what visiting the Antarctica region is all about.
I was going through and doing cataloging of some of my images from the last few years and stumbled upon this one. I have a ton of older images that I have made a vow to get organized. So, this an abandoned school house that sits on a hill and overlooks the ocean. The location is beautiful. If I was a student at this school I would have been day dreaming of big ocean adventures everyday. Guess they abandoned it because none of the students could concentrate on school work.
Who left their donkey behind? Shot near Metztitlan, Mexico. See it on google earth CLICK HERE
I was visiting Mexico recently and my Friend Micahel along with Lars traveled into the heart of Mexico to do some landscape photography. We traveled many back roads and some of these were treacherous. This image was made near Metztitlan, Mexico. I shot it from a hillside as the sun was setting. The low light offered some nice shadows and textures. You can view the location for this shot by CLICKING HERE.
