browserFruits September 2011 #2

26 Sep

Die browserFruits erstellen ist immer wieder spannend. Zu den meisten Links möchte man am liebsten gleich einen eigenen Artikel schreiben. Bei vielen Sachen hat man Angst, dass sie in dieser Aneinanderreihung von Links untergehen.

Und wie sortiert man diese ganz verschiedenen Bilder und Berichte? Da findet man eine starke Fotostrecke über die noch immer sichtbaren Kriegsverbrechen in Bosnien und dann wieder Links über einen Fotografen, der Legomännchen abbildet oder eine sehr sinnliche Aktserie. Wie fügt man das zusammen?

Ich weiß es leider nicht. Aber ich möchte auch nichts davon weglassen. Nehmt euch einfach Zeit. Ich hoffe, es sind ein paar Links für jeden dabei.

Hidden Lake, Glacier National Park

26 Sep

Glacier National Park suffers from no shortage of iconic vistas and formations. Hidden Lake lookout, above Logan Pass, is a place you can lose yourself taking in the iconic vistas and mountain peaks. Even the locals (Mountain Goats, Marmots and Bighorn Sheep) seem to stop to enjoy the views from time to time. They also seem to enjoy watching visiting photographers as I found out. The Mountain Goats (photos to come) might just surprise you by being right behind you and Marmots aren’t too shy about inspecting your gear. In fact on a previous trip to Glacier National Park a Marmot tried to take off with my tripod. Now that I think about it perhaps the locals here are closet photographers when no one is around

Special thanks to BorrowLenses.com as both of these photos were made using their Zeiss Distagon T* 3.5/18mm ZE and Canon 300mm f/2.8L IS USM lenses.

Sunrise at Wild Goose Island, Glacier National Park

23 Sep

Few places are as dramatic in appearance at sunrise as Glacier National Park in Montana. When I visit Glacier National Park I never miss an opportunity to witness a sunrise (even if I’ve had to fight my inner voice).  One of the best locations to take in a sunrise in the park is at the Wild Goose Island lookout.

You only get one sunrise and one sunset a day, and you only get so many days on the planet. A good photographer does the math and doesn’t waste either. – Galen Rowell

To capture the full sunrise scene pictured below I created a panoramic from 3 images via a Canon 24mm tilt-shift lens. Even though my multi-image panoramic technique expanded the angle of view to capture more of the scene than a single frame could, its impossible to do this scene justice. Out of frame was a Bald Eagle circling about getting an even better view of the scene unfolding. In all of my years visiting Glacier I’ve never seen a Bald Eagle. It made an amazing sunrise all the more special.

Alone yet strong

Alone yet strong, originally uploaded by hitkaiser.

It’s been a while since I haven’t featured Nottingham on the site so here goes…

Took this shot on a lazy sunday, the market square was quite alive; kids playing, tourists snapping and the locals enjoying the (rare) sun. It isn’t very common for Brits to dress up like this man (anymore), but it is still very common in Spain so for a moment I felt as if I was back home.
