Scottish Sunrise

Sorry, it has been a few days since my last post.  I strive to a post a day but sometimes regular life and work are moving too fast .  I am back on a more even keel and  don’t travel again for about a week.  Then I am off to Utah.  That should be a great trip.  This image I made in Scotland a few months back.  On the last morning in Scotland we drove by this location that for whole week was so fog shrouded you couldn’t see 20 feet.  then bam, the day was perfect, clear and still.  This was one of those magic moments photographers love.  I remember standing there as the sun came up, the shadows changed and just kept saying wow!

The Sky Is Bigger Out West

I travel many places as you probably know.  I am always amazed how the sky looks so much bigger out west.  Why is that?  Here’s proof.  Shot in Monument Valley.  We were shooting for a while with beautiful blue skies.  This is notwhat a photographer wants, we want nice puffy clouds.  Then within ten minutes this cloud shows up.  Our Indian guides said the called up the cloud god just for us.  Is there such a god?  The guides took credit for the clouds and I’ll take credit for this photo.

Yes all wrapped up in one.  A sunset that turns into sunrise.  This was shot at Jökulsárlón Iceberg Lagoon in Iceland.  And, it is really amazing to see as sunset turns into twilight and then into sunrise.  It is a feast for the eyes as colors chafe constantly

Church Window and Bible

In Iceland as you travel the country you can’t help but notice small churches all with red roofs.  Most of these are at great KODAK moment locations.  One particular church sits on top of a large hill.  I have some great shots of this church and it is in line to be published here.  This shot is the interior of one church.  I had my Phase One 60 megapixel back with me and I loved the way the light came in the window to light the bible.  It is tach sharp to, because I used the large megapixel camera.  You can read all the words in the bible.

Jökulsárlón – Iceberg Lagoon, Iceland

This another one of those images that you could probably never reproduce.  It was shot at 2AM approximately and I was hanging around the iceberg lagoon shooting a ton of great images. Then the light came and boy did it come.  I have a few dozen spectacular shots.  Then it was gone , just like that.  This was shot with a Phase One IQ 180 so the detail is amazing.  I have a 4×6 foot image of one of the shots in this series in my office.
