Rose’s comments on her image; This was a planned shot, just about didn’t get there fast enough for the blue hour. We had lighting issues that my team and I worked out. Keeping a model warm is my first priority, so I have to work fast in the cold weather as well as considering her safety. EOS R 19-135 lens F5.6, 20, ISO100 on Bulb 20sec.
The results are back from March for the 4-C’s monthly competition. We had only one winner in traditional but what a winner. Larry Pollock scored a perfect 27 in the traditional category with ‘Splash’.
Wednesday, March 17th will be our next education meeting. It will be a light painting field trip with Dale George as the teacher/instructor.
We will meet at Reinhart Volunteer Park (also known as All Sports Park) at 7 pm. When you go into the park take your first left. Just go to the end of the very long parking lot and you are there.
As much as I don’t want to say this, I gotta…Observe social distancing and wear your facial covering. I want all members to attend. I cannot and would not attempt to enforce this, do what you’re going to do, but please be respectful of others.
Bring camera, tripod, remote shutter (not absolutely necessary), fully charged battery, warm clothes, maybe a headlamp to see your camera dials.
Daylight savings time will be in effect so it won’t be getting dark until 7:30 or so.
This is a composite of the Northern Flicker and the tree. Normally you would see an Acorn Woodpecker on the tree as they stash the acorns in the trees. The Flicker eats acorns, but does not put them in trees. I should have named this “Stealing The Stash”. 🙂

This is light painting with different tools you can make or buy. I used my large (10 lb) lens ball on a mirror. Then I used 48.2 sec to shoot all the different colors around the ball. Canon EOS R on a tripod at F16, 48.2 sec with a clicker, ISO 100, 18 mm.
This is really fun and a good exercise to get the feel of what light painting can do. Have fun with it!
The Proposal Cynthia Briseno
Entitled “The Proposal”. Taken near Brookings, I had asked the couple if I could take their picture and they said “yes.” He had just proposed to her so I did some shots and sent them to them. It was a wonderful day and I took advantage of capturing “their moment.”
Camera was Canon5d mark IV, 70mm lens, ISO 200, F22, 1/40 sec.
