I forget the name of this flower. Does anyone know? I was playing with depth of field on a macro lens that I had rented from Pro Photo Supply in Portland. The lens I rented was the Nikon 105mm f/2.8 AF-S Micro VR. For this photo, I had the aperture set at f/3.2, which was [...]

I took this picture while on a birding walk with the Portland Audubon Society. I was using a Nikon 600mm f/4 AF-S II lens. I did not bring my tripod with me because it was a walk and it was very difficult to shoot with this very heavy lens handheld. It was difficult to get [...] I just read Trey Ratcliff’s new eBook – Composing the Photo: Creating Order from Chaos – Bonus Edition. It full of great information. I hope that it will help me understand why some of my photos are so much more popular than the others. I need to reread it to soak up all the information. I [...] I took this photo at the Tualatin River National Wildlife Refuge in May. The water was drained but there was still a small pond next to the photo blind. So there were still a few birds around the water. This Great Blue Heron showed up and just looked magnificent. The Great Blue Heron is the [...] This is another picture from the Alaska Cruiser Trek. We are lined up on the glacier. We couldn’t go any further because the crevasses stopped our progress. You can see some snow-filled crevasses in the foreground. No idea how deep they might be. Some were filled with water and are very dangerous. If you fell [...] I took this at the Woodburn Tulip Festival in April. I was using a macro lens that I rented from Pro Photo Supply, the Nikon 105mm f/2.8 AF-S Micro VR. The aperture for this image was f/3.2 which was the lowest setting for the given lighting conditions and shutter speeds. I didn’t realize how small [...] I took this picture back in May at the Tualatin River National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon. They have a photo blind that you can reserve. I had been their previously in February and I took about 1,000 pictures then. The refuge was flooded in February and there were a lot of waterfowl and two bald [...] This is a picture I captured from the Tulip Festival in Woodburn, Oregon. I rented a macro 105mm lens from Pro Photo Supply in Portland. I was playing with Depth of Field by using a low aperture setting (f/3.2, which was the lowest setting I could use with the bright light conditions and available shutter [...] Well, I’m currently in Deadhorse / Prudhoe Bay, Alaska doing fieldwork, which is why my blog hasn’t been updated until now. It has been a great field season. I saw a lot of wildlife: 3 wolves, including a pup, 3 herds of musk ox, about 15 grizzly bears including a few cubs, some absolutely giant [...] This was shot at the Woodburn Tulip Festival this last April. Because it was so bright out, I had to set the aperture to f/13 even though I was playing with Field of Focus. In order to get the 5 brackets I needed, I had to set the aperture to a small setting so the [...] |
