Spectacular views and great captures. Good exposures and colours. Nice!
Wow, These photo's are amazing.
I can't get over the amout of detail and color in each of them.
I am struggling with colors so much. They just arn't poping out like these.
Your fisrt two are so clear you really feel you are right there.
I haven't had much luck getting great photo's up on the mountains near my camp. I suspect your lens is prob worth more than my camera though..lol
Hey thanks guys. A lot of it is just sheer "seat time" as we used to call it in driving school. It took a bit to get used to digital after 20 years of film, but now I think I've got the hang of it and how to expose to manage the dynamic range. Then it's just a matter of processing the raw file a bit to bring it in line with the picture in my brain.
Funny you should bring up lenses BroMiCs. A lot of people overlook them when they're starting out, but glass is a huge part of a good photo. I kinda sorta splurged on the lens I have, but it's worth it since it hardly ever leaves the camera. Sharp, with very little distortion and accurate color rendition; an all around gem that I suspect I'll use for years. Good lenses are worth every prenny.
Thanks everyone for the kind words. It makes the ass kicking all the more worth it.
to be honest, the views from the top don't do much for me... but i love shooting "microscapes", and i'd come home with a lot more shots from the trail than anything from the top...

I like the last one with the person at the top. really gives a sense of scale to the climb and the steepness.

hee hee - that's my husband up there. I'm glad the photo works, I really dithered with it.
I thought maybe it was a park ranger waiting to read you the riot act. The photos make me want to hike that trail, even if it does kick my ass. Lovely series.
Thanks.
Nope. I've never actually seen a ranger in the WMNF before, but I think they do exist.
