No Sun Today Bonus!

These Canadian Geese were swimming in the light from the setting sun last week, down by Giant Springs.  They are expecting eight inches of snow on top of the ice tonight in Great Falls.  This will serve to remind you that the snow will leave someday… (1/320s f/7.1 ISO200 42.6mm (35mm eq:200mm) -1.3 stops Nikon […]

Day 21

This is a repost from Day 290, 2009.  I took this down near Corvallis, Montana, and I was adjusting it for a photo in a class on low light photography I am giving to the camera club.  A simple levels adjustment and this is way better than what I posted before! (30s f/4.5 ISO800 17mm […]

Day 12: A Flashback!

It is hard to believe that two months ago we were on Kaua’i.  The warm, tropic breezes are in distinct contrast to the 50-70 MPH winds here, although with daytime temperatures around 50F it seems pretty tropical compared to the -20s and lower temps from a couple of weeks ago. Those Pastrami on Rye toes! […]

Day 355: Flying Homewards…

At last our vacation was coming to a close.  A last goodbye to our digs! (All Nikon P7100…except a couple…) A quick trip through TSA was marred only by them not being able to read my delaminated and faded drivers license…we didn’t have to take our shoes off.  We were pre-approved!  Then a quick flight […]

Day 349: Cap’t Andy’s Sunset Dinner Cruise, Part 5

Whew!  These Cap’t Andy posts always seem to need a lot of photos!  Well, I am not stopping now! Cap’t Rick, our Skipper on this voyage, was having his birthday cruise.  So his wife came along for the ride.  They spend two weeks every winter in Big Fork on Flathead Lake. (All Canon 7D) He […]
