Photo of the Week! Three Sister's

Cascade River State Park, MN
Nikon D7000, 12-24mm @12mm, ISO 100, f16, 1/8

My buddy James was walking around this area while I was shooting the moving water in the back ground. Once I was finished with what I was doing I saw this clump of trees leaving over the rock. It was much more difficult it find a good angle and get a shot of this scene than I had expected. Stay tuned for next weeks Photo of the Week where I did an 180 degree turn of this same area!

Photo of the Week! Follow the Rainbow

Cascade River State Park, MN
Nikon D7000, 12-24mm @20mm, f16, ISO 100, 1/15

Here is my second photo from my trip to Minnesota's north shore. This photo is from my favorite State Park, Cascade River. This is the main falls for the park. It's extremely close to the camp ground (300 yards). The park system has built areas for visitors to sit and relax.

Photo of the Week! Gooseberry Falls State Park, MN

Gooseberry Falls State Park, MN
Nikon D7000, 12-24mm @14mm, ISO 100, F22, 1/5

I finally was able to get out and shoot last week! If has been an extremely slow 2012 photography wise thus far. So when a co-worker of mine wanted to hit up the north shore of Minnesota I couldn't resist. We packed up there car at O'dark 30 and hit the road. We started at Cascade River State Park before making our last stop here at Gooseberry State Park. Both Cascade and Gooseberry are among my favorite state parks to photograph!

Photo of the Week! The "Other Side" of Nez Perce Creek

Nikon D7000, 24mm, ISO 200, 1/60, 3 shot HDR

This is the eastern view of my "Nez Perce Creek" image from past trips to Yellowstone. Sometimes it's a good idea to turn around and see what's behind you as Chad demonstrated in his HTC Evo 4G post. There is something special in this area that keeps me coming back for more. I'm hopeful sometime this summer I can get out there and photograph this location during a different season.
