The story that is the real reason I took these shots. The second image requires the viewer to think for a second about what is in the rest of the shot, sometimes it is what is missing from the shot. Enjoy!</span><br />

The usual animals were visible: bison, coyotes, and migrating elk. One of the perks of volunteering is access into the interior when the roads close to visitors in November. Consequently we were the only ones at Old Faithful during an eruption. The sound amid the surrounding quiet was unforgettable.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">This tamarack grove was in full display at Crex Meadows on an early morning last week. The cranes were flying out of the Refuge as they have for decades so I decided to explore other photo opportunities.

<span style="font-size: large;">I spent mornings last weekend along the Lake Superior shore. Sunday was fogged in so I concentrated on wave activity trying to wait until later in the wave to catch action a different phase of wave motion. A relatively slow shutter speed (1/6 second) preserved some motion. Fall color is yet to come but the lake is always there.</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01178281727038734480noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3319379380564550573.post-63039647173800877572018-09-14T09:13:00.004-05:002018-09-14T09:13:57.702-05:00Prairie Excitement<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The prairie is sky and grass, perhaps colorful flowers if you are there at the right time. How do you make a place visually exciting when you see a peacefulness and respite from the chaos of city life? This drone project is honing my "sense of place" awareness by answering that question in twelve different Scientific and Natural Areas across Minnesota. Four of twelve have been filmed, eight to go.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">This 3.6 billion year old rock is a long walk from the road. Once or twice a year I make the long, hot trek in to look for blooming prickly pear cactus. A few weeks ago I applied for a drone permit from the Scientific and Natural Area Program and the stipulation of the permit is to make one minute videos of 12 selected SNAs. Gneiss Outcrops is on the list so the trip was worthwhile even though I missed the cactus bloom again.</span><br />

I brought a full array of DSLR lenses along but only used one camera for all of the non-wildlife images: an iPhone8. With its incredible versatility the iPhone8 took all but one image.

<span style="font-size: large;">After a long day in Badlands NP my daughter and I decided to try to capture lightning. We drove north of Wall after dinner and watched the sky. It was fun to watch and quite an experiment in camera settings.

<span style="font-size: large;">I'm playing with my daughter's drone and found a small county park to fly in. The trees and water added just enough tension to an already tense experience learning to control the aircraft. Drones are really about flying to an area to photograph or recording en route to an location. At this point photography is second priority, maybe that will change with more experience.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">A nearby pioneer cemetery was a perfect location to learn drone video techniques. This is a truly team effort in film-making: Angela-equipment manager, Elizabeth-director and film editor, Sandi-managing editor, Dale-cinematographer. Lots to learn but have not mowed any grass or trimmed trees with it yet. Just starting to get out of "auto" in photo/video mode.</span></div>

After the initial thought, "I'm too old a dog for new tricks.", I decided to give it a try. As with all camera gear it is super simple to get a picture but a good photo takes some practice. After an emergency call to her to find out how to turn it on I was ready to go. My current passion is video so I am learning those features first with some still images thrown in along the way.</span><br />

It has a tradition of celebrating on July 3rd with a town parade, it circles the block twice, and a better than expected fireworks display. If you can't get out tonight this is will give you a chance to see some 4th fireworks this year.</span><br />

His mother would have nothing to do with him as if to say, "Grow up". It was tempting to go BBC and add the sound of scratching. Enjoy.</span><br />

As I watched it I noticed the rhythm in its leg movements which led to this short video. </span><br />

I noticed mushrooms everywhere and decided to try time-lapse again. Last summer I made my first attempt at mushroom time-lapse and and was not happy with the results. This year I made a few minor adjustments: placing the Go Pro further away from the subject and recording bigger mushrooms being the main adjustments.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Technical: Go Pro @ 1 minute intervals, about 8 1/2 hours duration. Sequenced in LRTimelapse</span><br />

Yesterday's forecast and radar lined up so I went hunting using a GoPro and my 7D. Rain is an issue that you don't notice when watching the edited clips. Wind can also be a challenge but yesterday was relatively calm, just wet.</span><br />

Cunningham Ranch view is spectacular but a little tough to shoot. Fill
flash is no problem but getting the window square is harder. A short
walk out from the cabin is also a great place to watch the clouds.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">We just returned from traveling to Grand Tetons NP and Yellowstone. The Tetons were a first for us, except for a half day visit 30 years ago. Most of the time was spent exploring its back roads but the last evening we watched sunset while waiting for bears to appear. More to follow.</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01178281727038734480noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3319379380564550573.post-27672905856386690312018-05-20T09:14:00.000-05:002018-05-20T09:14:19.535-05:00Pelicans Laughing<span style="font-size: large;">It's natural to anthropomorphize even the most ugly of birds.

All the shots are identical, except for the light, so I was practicing with my video set up and waiting for sweet light to do still shots when this bird's landing came along.</span><br />
