BW Classic From Saugatuck, Michigan

Saugutuck, Michigan

A number of years ago I decided to head out for a weekend adventure up the west coast of Michigan. I thought I would shoot sleepy little villages and lighthouses. As I was driving up the Blue Star Highway I saw this ship off to my left. I stopped and shot it and have been doing so until last Summer when they took the ship to Canada to refurbish it and make it a museum. I also discovered a wonderfully peaceful town there Saugutuck. This is an artsy village with bed and breakfasts places, galleries and a unique charm. Put it on your must visit list.

It’s Ice Time

The Gullet, Antarctica

For the next few days I’ll be posting images from my previous three trips to Antarctica. It’s the ultimate adventure and I will be making a trip there in 2013 and 2014. People ask if there is one place I like the most in all my travels where would it be. Simple answer – Antarctica. There is truly no place like it anywhere. The images I have taken there and sites I have seen will be with me to the day I die. Truly an amazing place to visit. This shot was made in the Gullet. Usually Ice choked we were able to navigate it on one of the most incredible bright days and still days ever. The water was as smooth as a mirror. The sky a deep blue that was astonishing. And the ice and reflections were so fantastic.  I will post more from the Gullet and elsewhere. Hope you enjoy this.

Clint’s Secret Spot

Clint’s Secret Spot, Monument Valley, AZ

As you can tell from previous posts I was leading a PODAS workshop in Monument Valley and the Slot Canyons last wee. We had a great time and great images. To do photography in remote areas we needed to use Indian guides. We had 4 really  great guides in Monument Valley. The guide who was driving the 4WD drive I was in had many of his own secret spots.  Seems all the Indian guides have locations that they consider theirs. This was one of those spots. Very nice at sunrise.

Monument Valley

Monument Valley from Hunts Mesa

It’s been very hard posting the last few weeks. I have been leading PODAS Photography workshops in Scotland and now in Monument Valley and also did some family things in between. For now I am going full speed at the PODAS Monument Valley workshop and oh what a workshop it has been. Amazing photography. I have a lot of images to post here in the weeks to come. For now you’ll have to settle for this shot from Hunts Messa.

Green Island Cemetary

Green Island Cemetery, Scotland

One of the places w visited in Scotland was one of the oldest known cemeteries.  We spent nearly two hours here after an 1.5 hour boat ride. Only way to visit this place is by boat. To say the place was surreal would be an understatement.  It deserved the BW treatment. I’ll post some more interesting image from here in the near future.

Castle Stalker

Castle Stalker, Scotland

Last evening we took the group to Castle Stalker and stayed there until after sunset. And, oh what a sunset it was. It lasted a while and transformed itself every few minutes Hard to decide what shots to choose. Shoot with the Phase One IQ 180 and then processed in capture one. Was bale to still hold detail in the castle while keeping the intensity of the sunset. Good tools for great images. More to come.
