Three First Places

First Ray Of Light     Rose Christner

This was taken at Harris Beach in Brookings, Oregon in the early morning. I used the Canon EOS R with a 400 lens + 1.4 extender shot at 560mm. Settings at F8, 1/1250, ISO 12800 on a tripod. Little work in Photoshop. She was low to the ground, so I wasn’t sure I got her, but just kept clicking away.

 

Misty Stars Over Elephant Rock    Nomeca Hartwell

This Bandon Beach shot nearly didn’t happen as first the moon and then the rising and falling mist interfered with getting a clean shot of the Milky Way. In fact, my shooting companion had already thrown in the towel, taken a warm shower and was resting in bed when I phoned her up  and said it might be possible to get a decent shot if she hurried back out. ( she did much to my surprise). Those few minutes were all that we had and I succeeded in getting the 4 shots I needed before the mist closed in for good for the night.  Nikon D750, 24mm lens, f/2.2 and 15 secs at ISO 3200 on a tripod.
