Into personal space

This little rabbit stayed perfectly still; truly believing that I couldn’t see it.  This is so close that I had to back off slowly to about 30 feet, put an extension tube onto my 100-400 lens (so if would be able to focus on a subject so close), and move back in.  I took this photo and moved slowly away.  It continued to sit right there as I left.  This was in rattlesnake country – it doesn’t look promising for this little fella’.

A simple but most enjoyable and relaxing evening - spending time with some mallards’ along Kelowna’s waterfront park.

Fun in the Sun

Kelowna. Sandy beaches, plenty of sun and a beautiful lake for swimming. I love living here.

Strobist Boot Camp II

I love following the Strobist blog for info, ideas and the atmosphere of sharing. Assignment 2 – a little food photography.

Fish out of water

Fish out of water

Strobist Info: Single bare Canon 550EX zoomed to 105mm directly overtop of the plate. Removed the snoot and like the highlights in the riffles…just enough spilling. Flash 1 stop over the rest of the scene. Ambient doing the heavy lifting, flash for detail and a little punch.
