Project 208 continues....

This photo completes week 1 of #Project 208. Thanks for keeping up. This shot is made up of snow and Dandelions in early bloom (because of the funky weather in OKC), I thought made a pretty cool image.

Illinois River and Banana Boats

Illinois River /// October 2011

This picture was taken at "Lumberjack Weekend" with our students. It turned out to be a weekend of memories... from having the Sheriff and Ranger come see us, because they thought we were stranded hikers to one of our group members freezing through the night, only to wake up and realize they had a huge rip in their sleeping bag. Good times. This is also where I experienced a new campfire snack, known as "BANANA BOATS."

Banana Boats:
(-) Cut a Banana down the middle like you would a potato
(-) Separate the peel and add
      (-) Chocolate Chips, M&M, Reeses Pieces, Marshmallows
(-) Close Banana and Wrap in Foil
(-) Place in fire for at least 10 min
(-) Remove and Enjoy

Little Tree on the Prairie.

Amber, Oklahoma /// September 2011

Although you try to explain the beauty of Oklahoma to people who don't live here, it is always hard to communicate. No mountains, no beaches, no ginormous trees, flat, windy, etc... ohh, but the prairie.

Motion... Commotion. Smotion.

Pagosa Springs, CO /// June 2011
One of the hardest things about motion blur photography is trying to get the white balance in the whole picture what it needs to be. Motion blur shots are great when you have a waterfall, river or any other moving object but when you open the shutter for longer it can wash out the shot. So, it's a battle to crack the code between; shutter speed, aperture and white balance. So, the above shot looks pretty good, with the exception of the top of the shot being washed out. This may be due to time of day (backlit by sun) or user error.
