The Fall Collection

I hope you enjoy these-- and don't forget to click them to navigate to Flickr and enjoy a higher resolution version(click 'All Sizes') that should look great as a laptop screen backdrop.

Takeoff

X-Country Part II

Bare with me as I don't remember the exact names of the locations that these photos were taken.

X-Country Roadtrip Part I

Back from vacation with a treasure trove of breathtaking views. Here are the first few photos I've had time to develop, and only more will come as days and weeks pass. Enjoy and if you want a large copy of the file let me know :-D.



Yosemite's Fields


Yosemite - Glacier Point(?)


Yellowstone-- Lower Falls view from the falls themselves.


Yellowstone River Valley


San Francisco Vista Viewpoint

Independence Day Break

Take note-- I hate naming my photos.

Summer Collection

After a lot of hard work I managed to get out and enjoy the sun a bit. Also with some experimentation and reading I've learned my optical limitations with the macro equipment I'm using. Basically it came down to the fact that if you extend the lens too far from the camera for higher magnification-- you also magnify the optical artifacts that inherently come with all optical equipment no matter how expensive. After changing my methods a bit I've managed to increase the ratio of good to bad shots.

Om nom nom!

LARGE PANORAMAS

I've now labeled the highest resolution links.

CLICK the photos! Some of the large panoramas will take you directly to a full size version to scope out the smaller details.

Others will take you to flickr.com where you can click "Display larger size". There you can get a slightly larger version of 1280 pixel width instead of the 1024 displayed on the blog.

Also watch the different segments for updates as I'll be adding new photos as I scavenge through my collections.
