From Match Smoke

  • Untitled photo
  • Day 35. August 12, 2010. See comments for previous photo.<br />
<br />
This was almost a discard since the smoke was blurred. But after transforming to b/w, this turned out really well. There's a little excess smoke in the top-left that I was thinking about cloning away, but decided to leave this completely without processing (besides converting to b/w).<br />
<br />
100mm f/2.8L IS Macro @ f/11. 1/20s. ISO 100. 580EX II from camera left and above match tip, 1ft away, at 1/8 power.

  • Day 43. August 20, 2010. The most spectacular sunset I have ever witnessed over land. And I had my camera and tripod with me. :)<br />
<br />
EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 @ 10mm, f/9.0. 1/60. ISO 160.
  • Lenticular clouds!
  • Day 44. August 21, 2010. Standing on Barcroft Peak, looking at White Mountain Peak. Gusts topping out over 50mph. 13,040 ft. A little winded after hiking up this thing after having slept at Barcroft Research Station at 12,470ft, and doing badly acclimatizing while going through a cold and continuing nosebleeds. The views were spectacular. And the bluest skies I've ever seen.<br />
<br />
EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 @ 10mm, f/7.1. 1/500. ISO 100.

I take way too many pictures of trees. But these bristlecones are amazing.
  • Day 45. August 22, 2010. This was at the Schulman Grove, halfway down. Along with the Patriarch Grove slightly higher up the mountain, these bristlecone pine forests have some of the oldest trees in the world. The Methuselah Grove within the Schulman grove contains the Methuselah Tree, which has been dated at over 4000 years.<br />

EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS @ 24mm, f/11. 1/200s. ISO 100.
