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.

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.

“My photo was taken in the morning on Chrome Ridge about 20 miles directly west of Grants Pass. It had snowed the night before and was very cold, leading to nice light fluffy snow. So I set out early to get a nice drive in light snow (something I love doing in my Jeep), and perhaps get some good snow shots.”
“Snow was lightly falling and the storm started to break, with some sun beginning to shine through the clouds. I used my Nikon d750 with a 28-300 mm lens at 28mm. I set the exposure to f/8.0, ISO 100, and an Exposure Compensation of -0.33EV. Knowing snow shots, left to the light meter, will tend to be grey, but the sunny spots will over expose, I used a shutter speed of 1/500 sec, and an EV of -0.33 to properly expose this light-tricky shot.”
