Taken last Saturday morning out on the bay in Foster City. I was hoping that the added moisture in the air would help catch some light. But, I didn't expect what was about to happen. Just before the sun started to break the horizon there was a sliver of orange forming. Over the course of 4 to 5 minutes the light started to roll over the cloud bands! Almost as if fire was rolling along the sky between the ground and the cloud ceiling above. Then as quickly as the light advanced it pulled back extinguishing the oranges as the sun broke the horizon.

Needless to say I had to work fast and metering off the changing light was tough. Its always fun setting up in the early morning waiting for the light to put on a show. Looking forward to some more shoots around the bay as winter sets in up here. I hope you enjoy :) Thanks for stopping by!

Digital Blending - 2 exposures.

Taken on Saturday morning along the bay in Foster City. I really have come to enjoy shooting in this location. Its a spot where one can really slow down, relax and just watch the colors flood the sky.

I'm thinking of doing a series of bay shoreline where the texture of the run off pulls the viewer into the bay. I have one more exposure from this morning's shoot that will be put up soon. I hope you enjoy :)

Thank you for stopping by.

Woke up one early for a walk along the beach, and tried my hand a some shooting. Kinda missed the real big light show but still was nice to just take in the morning slowly.

Poipu, Kauai - Nikon D7000, Two blended exposures.

Located in Hilo, this waterfall is super easy to get to. Just pull off the road :) Some nice little hiking trails that lead up the river above the falls to some rock pools. Lindsay and I really enjoyed exploring Hilo. So much to see, and we could of used abit more time for sure.

One exposure, 2 stop-soft grad ND filter.
