David's Images of the Day Photoblog
Views of the sky. Sunrise, sunset, clouds, and weather
Turquoise Lake Early Morning Panorama, Leadville Colorado. Image taken with a Nikon D3x camera and 24 mm f/3.5 PC-E lens and Singh-Ray neutral density filter (ISO 100, 24 mm, f/16, 10 sec).
Why are nine large birds flying north past the Grand Tetons in late September? At this distance I can’t tell if they are geese, cranes, or swans. My guess is Sandhill Cranes. Image taken with a Nikon D2xs and 200-400 mm VR lens (ISO 100, 200 mm, f/8,, 1/180 sec).
Silhouette of the RV EGS Pioneer at Sunrise in the English Channel from the Deck of the MV Explorer. Image taken with a Nikon Df camera and 70-200 mm f/4 VR lens (ISO 400, 200 mm, f/16, 1/250 sec). Raw image processed with Capture One Pro, Focus Magic and Photoshop CC 2014.
During last year’s Semester at Sea Spring Enrichment Voyage on the MV Explorer I managed to get 9 images of ships transiting the sun at sunrise or sunset. This year I was on the ship for both the last segment of the Enrichment Voyage, and the Summer Semester voyage — more days, but only got a couple of ship/sun/sunrise/sunset transit images. This one was close during our final sunrise as we approached Southampton.
Sunset at Westerplatte in Gdansk, Poland. Semester at Sea, Summer 2014 Voyage. Image taken with a Leica X2 camera (ISO 100, 24 mm, f/16, 1/125 sec). Raw image processed with Capture One Pro, Focus Magic, and Photoshop CC.
