Day 021

Last of the Sunset from the mountains.  If you have noticed any graininess in the last few days, that’s what happens when you don’t check and the camera is set to ISO 800… Two variations on the same photo (taken on the Nikon P7100!). * A single photo panorama. And two more variations on a […]

Day 018

I made a Red Cross blood run to Missoula.  Colorful sky.  Slippery roads. The Front Range of the Rockies. Along Montana 200. The bottom of the Pass. ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 337

A pair of Buffleheads. “Frank?”  “Yeah, Joe?”  “My butt’s cold.” (1/500s f/5.6 ISO100 300mm +1/2 stop Canon 7D) ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 325

Late afternoon, back at the boat…sea haze… (All photos Canon 7D) The Grand Princess, docked next to us, has one of those really neat covered bows on the promenade deck.  The Amsterdam, that we were on, has that part of the bow shut off, only to open it for special occasions. Hey!  What’s that?  Up […]

Day 307: Back in Alaska…

Meanwhile, back near Sitka, the sun was setting.  I got a neat panorama: five photos from my Samsung s5 Galaxy cellphone. (Click to enlarge; BACK to return!) But what is that, back there behind the ship? Yes, that! Pretty neat so see a rainbow at sea. And of course, the sunset I came out to […]

Day 290: Another brief break…

I got to run down by the River this evening and got a few nice photos of a variety of birds, so I will break into our Arches sojourn for a moment. Western Grebes. (1/750s f/8.0 ISO125 400mm -1/2 stop Canon 7D 100% crop) Bald Eagle. (1/1000s f/8.0 ISO160 400mm 7D 100% crop) Juvenile Common […]

Day 278

Still later: Moonset over Moab at 4:16 am. The Moon went behind a cliff backing the campground we are in.  It is still up somewhere behind the cliff. (1/4s f/5.6 ISO6400 56mm -2 stops Canon 7D) ~Curtis in Moab! {!-{>

Day 277

The Moon over Moab (Utah…)! (1/1000s f/8.0 ISO320 146mm -1/2 stop Canon 7D) A little later… (1/500s f/8.0 ISO160 300mm -1/2 stop7D) With just a little bit of contrast and darkening… ~Curtis in Moab!{!-{>
