    Hubbard Glacier - Blue Ice In The Mist

    Thanks for sharing. An inside passage trip has been on my list for quite some time. Which cruise did you decide to go with? Any particular reason?

    Artistic Shots- Well thought out, framed (positioned), artistic shots only please.

    Thanks everyone- I enjoy shooting at night when possible. James- Exposure time can be calculated a couple ways. If you are into the math of exposure, aperture, and ISO the easiest way is to shoot F2.8 at ISO 1600 and get a proper exposure time at those settings. Then you simply adjust your...

    Long road to nowhere.

    Just got back from 6 days in Norcal. I had a blast driving many of the California mountain roads as I bounced around from Fort Bragg to San Jose. Here are a couple road shots:

    Monsoon Season in Arizona

    Porches? Wimps! :jump: Okay honestly my porch is just useless otherwise I would consider using it as well. As far as safety guidelines they are the same whether you are shooting with a camera or outside at all. Don't be the tallest object, don't stand under the tallest object, etc. I...

    used camera gear?

    I guess it depends on what you consider entry level. Based on your one post it seems like your price range is around $600. Is that correct or if not what is your price range? A couple deals: http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=200756...

    Nathan- that is very cool that you have a connection to The Watchtower. A very unique structure for sure.

    Thanks Natalie- We seemed to get skipped out here in terms of lightning. I am going to have to drive to get some actual lightning shots.

    Artistic Shots- Well thought out, framed (positioned), artistic shots only please.

    I think you have a lot to work with here if you do a little post process work. The red in the sky is over saturated and your foreground is too dark. There are several ways to bring out the details and balance the foreground and sky. I did some quick editing on the image in Photoshop and posted...

    Artistic Shots- Well thought out, framed (positioned), artistic shots only please.

    Rob- that is a great catch. I agree that the right side is heavy due to the lighting and the large house and barn. That little bit of falling rain does do just enough to draw your attention and help balance the shot. I have been unsuccessful in lighting shots so far. They seem to occur when I...

    Difference between AUTO and Landscape modes

    It is going to vary based on each shot. In most cases the F stop probably going to be in the F8-F11 range, ISO in the 100-200 range, metering light across the whole frame, and saturating the blues and greens. I would suggest you learning how to view your EXIF data on pictures so you can see the...
