Valley View, Yosemite. A little drab in the winter without snow on the ground. Still. A soothing place to be still.

Beautiful, John! Would you mind sharing how you lit this shot? Thanks

Thanks! The flower was placed on a light table, so it's lit from below/behind together with natural morning light that came in from the garden doors. Not a very sophisticated setup, to be sure, but it seems to work...

The further adventures of Wrong Tool for the Job. The good news - a pair of red-tailed hawks are nesting outside my window. The bad news - the sun rises right behind them and all my long glass is old and flareful. So here is a hawk nest at sunrise. X2D, Mamiya 645 300/5.6 ULD @f/8.


You can just see that one of them is unhappy with the observation.

Last weekend, I took the plunge for the Phase One 28/4.5 AF Aspherical and I'm going through some testing shoots right now ... I could return the lens in the next 2 weeks if I were to be unhappy with the results.
But the first tests seem to give rather fine results, maybe because my IQ140 has a crop sensor, and thus I avoid using the extreme corners ...

Without further ado, here's one of the first shots, and I'm rather pleased with it ...

The structure deserves a much better effort than a midday snap - take away the parked cars and the flat-washed-out summer midday light and maybe there is something there, but I was there then and not sometime else.

Your images from Yosemite are simply spectacular. Thanks for sharing!

Last night I had a photo meetup with @Ray Harrison photographing the area around the Denver Art Museum. When we started the sky was overcast, but as dusk came around it ended up being quite nice.

This first image was made with the Rm3di + HBLD 100C + 50HR (about 20mm of camera fall and 10mm shift). Originally, this image was meant to be a vertical stitch of two images, but I decided to just keep the top half because the bottom of the scene was quite cluttered with construction, piles of snow, signage, etc. An LCC reference file was created, but I didn't end up using it.

This second image was made with the GFX 100 II and 30mm TS (Direction 300° Shift 11.1mm). Since this is just a single image, I cleaned up some of the random stuff in the bottom half of this one.

Last week we had one of those mornings when it is foggy and ice is covering the trees. I don't make black and white images that often, but the color image was almost completely monochromatic so I decided why not.

If you look closely, you'll notice that the tree is in focus, the right side near is in focus, and the left side far is in focus. I'd like to claim I planned it this way, but when I made this picture I was still learning how to attach lenses to the Rm3di camera. If you don't line up the mount with the camera right it will go on crooked.
