The countryside of the MI Pennisulas is simply delightful! The folks are so nice and helpful, and curious just what this white van full of photographers find interesting in their backyard. The answer is lots! Here’s a couple more examples.
Spider Lake is a small boat launch tucked way back in the middle of nowhere. We pulled up and I instantly saw the dock, shoreline and the clouds as this amazing merge of line and texture. Lens selection was a no-brainer, a 10.5, straight shot.
The bottom image is of Old Mission Lighthouse which is just a really cool place. On our visit to it yesterday it was pouring rain. The clouds started to part this afternoon so we made a run hoping to find a great sunset but instead, nearly bald skies. With the turn of the clouds, it was a high contrast B&W image which I achieved using CS3. I’m really looking forward to returning to the lighthouse to see its other moods.
DLWS starts tomorrow, no shooting but we’ll be back at it hot and heavy on Monday so I’ll post new images than. Have a great weekend shooting!
