What I love about running is you can meditate while running. It's a peaceful place.

LLR, cool keeneland shots! I so want to get out there this session! Maybe tomorrow or Friday if I am lucky.

JB, cool wedding stuff, tough lighting! Maybe a little bit of fill flash? Ask Chester, she is a master with flashs, and tricky lighting. I pretty much just use aperture for all the resizing. This last set, I did all the post in it as well, no need for photoshop. Very cool program, and it is worth the money, though it is Mac only, and takes a pretty nice machine to run it well.

Oh, and I am glad someone caught the squirrel nuts - there were lots of crazy things going on at the zoo that day!

LLR - I particularly like the third one - the 'horse portrait' - there's something about the character of the light on the horse and the wall behind that really strikes me.

JB - I've tried to get those sorts of shots at weddings and not done nearly as well - nice job! My one comment would be that in the B&W shots, it seems like for a wedding, I would want them to be a bit brighter - don't loose the nice contrast/blacks, but bring up the midtones a bit (In Photoshop, I'd be tweaking the Curves - or dragging the midpoint slider in Levels, if I was feeling lazy)

Westwater Canyon mini-epic river trip. Classic big water class III+ desert run through a spectacular sandstone and Precambrian gneiss gorge. Colorado River, eastern Utah.

Way too much rain out here this fall. Cold, cold rain. The river rose 1000cfs while we were on it that day.

Here it comes again. Yeah for hypothermia.

Image
Muddy waterfalls poured into the canyon as we descended Westwater. Nice touch.

I'd be smiling too if I owned a $600 drysuit. Lucky bastard.

The Little Dolores River before it enters the Colorado. AKA poop soup, typical of desert streams after a deluge.

Went to Keeneland today, though, in totally gumby fashion, I had 1: Forgot to charge my batteries after shooting in the cold Saturday night and the Zoo Sunday, and 2: Left my gear in the car overnight and today, so all three of my batteris lasted for a total of less then an hour. But here are a few shots....
