David's Images of the Day Photoblog
Views of the sky. Sunrise, sunset, clouds, and weather
Sunset over the Gulf of Mexico from the deck of the M/V Explorer. We were about 60 miles due south of Key West. This was our last sunset and night at sea for the voyage. Too much haze so no green flash. Image taken with a Nikon D3x camera and 70-300 mm VR lens (ISO 320, 300 mm, f/5.6, 1/250 sec).
Sunrise Aboard the MV Explorer. Image taken with a Nikon D3s camera and 24 mm lens (ISO 200, 24 mm, f/16, 1/60 sec). One thing we learned during the voyage (the hard way) was the need to take the camera and lens out on deck at least 30 minutes before taking any images to prevent fogging due to moisture condensing on the lens.
Springtime in Yosemite Valley, Yosemite Falls and Reflections in the Merced River. Image taken with a Nikon D3x camera and 24 mm f/3.5 PC-E lens (ISO 100, 24 mm, f/16, 1/40 sec).
Power Lines Crossing the Road to Crystal Geyser Near Green River, Utah. Image taken with a Nikon D300 camera and 18-200 mm VR lens (ISO 200, 32 mm, f/10, 1/400 sec).
Do a search for Crystal Geyser and Green River, Utah. It is worth seeing – a cold, carbon dioxide powered geyser. I have posted images of it erupting in the past.
Lunch stop on our field trip to Seal Island and Boulders Beach. Hout Bay Overlook. Western Cape, South Africa. Composite of 13 images taken with a Leica T camera and 23 mm f/2 lens (ISO 100, 23 mm, f/4, 1/200 sec). Raw images processed with Capture One Pro and AutoPano Giga Pro.
