A morning in the redwoods.

A couple images form a brief morning session in the redwoods of the California coast near San Francisco. All images were created using a Canon 5Ds and a Canon 17mm F/4 TS lens. This is quickly becoming my goto lens for forest photography for its ability to maintain vertical lines and generate a lot of depth of field.

The images were made while wandering the creek and trails of Memorial County Park near Pescadero.CA The morning started out lightly overcast providing beautiful flat light with the sun starting to burn through by the end.

Learning new lenses

A couple months ago I picked up a RF 100mm f/2.8 Macro L and I am putting it through it's paces to see what I can come up with.

Minimalism, Abstract, Experimental (and more...)

Tiny Visitor

I was recently back in the woods trying to take some wildlife photos. Sadly, I barely came across any birds that day and whenever I did, they were gone before I could even focus on them.
