De-bearded Dude Does Good by Fort Photo

De-bearded Dude Does Good

Well not so much with the portrait, I meant marrying the girl eight years ago. ;-)))

Quite a few folk have been clamoring to see me sans beard, so here you go all! It's been almost ten years since I last shaved it off, so I have an excuse for such a baby face under there, hah.

Shot Notes: Wish I had gotten the shoot-through umbrella high enough to soften up my collar shadow-line more, alas it was just a quick-grab portrait anyways.

Utah-rado: Seeing Red by Fort Photo

Utah-rado: Seeing Red

View Large on Black

The fantastical landscapes given rise by the geology of the Colorado Plateau are known worldwide for amazing rock formations with incredible red hues. Here's a view of some rock formations just to the east of Fisher Towers in SE Utah. Makes one wonder why only my home state of Colorado features the color red as part of its name, heh.

Image notes: single frame, no hdr, no grads. The key was near sunset light on these rocks to warm up the reds even more. Hard to believe it would be pitch black out at the time this was taken now that we are in December. I miss those long summer days!

Moon-mill by Fort Photo

Moon-mill

Please View Large on Black, can you can spot which streaks are Orion?

The moon arcs across a Pawnee National Grassland sky in NE Colorado with an iconic Aermotor windmill in the foreground. The red lights in the distance are from a modern wind farm (Cedar Creek).

Shot Notes: This was an involved process: A. In the field I took 467 shots to create this image: 466 8 second shots for the trails and 1 shot with a handheld SB800 flash with CTO warming gell to light up the windmill/foreground; B. Batch convert RAW images to 16 bit TIFFs in the ever-living slow Nikon Capture NX2; C: Batch stack the 466 TIFFs with the startrails action in Photoshop; D: Clone out unwanted lens flair and tidy up resulting image with NR, other basic edits; E: Prepare image with warming flash used to help pop the foreground/windmill; F: Blend star/moon trails shot with warming flash shot; G: Post blend cleanup; H: Post it here!

I actually almost posted a whole different version that shows more of one still, see below in comments.

Jupiter rises behind the silhouette of Fisher Towers complemented by the stunning Milky Way display in this area of very low light pollution in SE Utah.
