Colorful Shoreline

As Judi and I were walking around the shoreline of Silver Lake I noticed a nice little deck that was built out over the water. I walked out onto it and saw this scene. Judi was busy talking to a couple of people who were practicing their fencing skills, you meet all kinds on these trails. This HDR came out pretty nice with the fall colors in the background. With a circular polarizer on, the water is very clear and the sky is bright blue. It was shot at about 10:00 am. LYLE

Up A Tree

As I was walking around Silver Lake I noticed that there was something moving the bushes a bunch, as I looked closer this little guy was gathering berries as fast as he could. It was quite hard to capture him but after about 12 shots I thought maybe I had one. I actually got two that I could use. This was shot at F/4.9, ISO 140, shutter 1/125 and focal length 185 with the 70-300 lens. Wow, a single capture! LYLE

Fall is in the Air

After looking at this photo at work where my monitor is calibrated I realized how far off my monitor is at home after I had it worked on. I need to go calibrate it also. LYLE

This is Silver Lake where I shot the photo that you didn't like in the rain. I was up there before daylight and shot this 5 shot HDR just after sunrise. The fall leaves were just turning and the light was perfect. I used a polarizing filter so I could capture the moss and rocks on the bottom of the lake and blue up the sky. LYLE
