I’ve been thinking about the lack of scuba diving in my life recently, so I decided to process this photo of some corals. Like most things underwater, it wasn’t very interesting until I lit it up with my strobe, and then the colors other than blue really started to show.
Star Trails
I spent a long, cold hour and 38 minutes by Donner Lake in April to get this shot. The process consisted of continuously taking photos and later combining them to show the the stars moving across the night sky. I also missed five and a half minutes when my camera stopped, creating what looks like a break in the trails. At first I didn’t like this, but the effect is growing on me. Multiple trains passing through gave the foreground an added bonus of a streak of light through the mountain. I’m happy with this first attempt and excited to try it again!
Combination Unknown
An old safe, and an unknown code. This must have once protected something valuable, but I just came for the interesting design of these old safes.
First Light
The trail on the left was the start of a very long but very rewarding day of hiking to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and back. It might look like daylight in this picture, but the sun had just come up on the other side of the ridge to reveal this view.
