This is my masterpiece of the week. It’s from last Sunday’s drive and was taken overlooking the Columbia river just off Manilla Creek Road. (Here’s the coordinates on the map). You can click the picture for a bigger view.
I did this with two, three shot HDR images of the scene stitched together as a panorama. The view was amazing. We stopped here earlier in the day, so I knew it had potential. We moved on, but at sunset came back for the shoot.

It was late Sunday night on the way home from bible study at my brothers house near Coulee City. I was looking west towards Waterville and there were so many stars. They live in the country, so the only artificial lights are on the horizon.
This was taken with my new Canon 5D MK II. This won’t mean much to non photo geeks, but I shot it at ISO 6400, Sigma 15mm Fisheye lens @ f2.8 exposed for 13 seconds and cleaned with neat image: The heavens delare the glory of God… Gav

We went for a photo drive around the area a few weeks ago. This is an old windmill outside of Ephrata. I used my SUPER wide fisheye lens for these. It distorts a bit, but I like the wide area of view I can capture. These were taken as HDR with my new 5D MK2 camera.

As promised here’s another shot from my recent trip down to the Leavenworth area to shoot nature around the Wenatchee River. This is a few miles up Highway 2, right by the bridge I posted last week.The color and vibrancy of nature in the fall is always so amazing. God sure knows his colors. This is one of my High dynamic range pieces with a few of my effects added. To get the broad range of light I use the tones from three images taken at different brightness levels.

For my last recreational shoot I went down by Leavenworth for the afternoon and drove up Highway 2. The fall colors were amazing. This old pipeline bridge is now a footpath, and spans the Wenatchee river looked really cool. I got some other neat shots of the river itself so stay tune. I also found a little chipmunk friend who was busy making a dinner of some strange bugs. He started to get used to me after a few minutes, and his dining experience more important than avoiding my camera.
