Woods pup was taken last fall after a long day working in the woods. I saw my coworker’s puppy playing with big brown maple leaves while the last rays of golden light came down. I was inspired to capture such a picturesque scene and thus began the process of trying to get a hyper puppy to sit still.
The photo was taken with a Canon 6DmkII and a Canon 70-200mm f2.8 lens. Camera settings were f4, 1/500 sec @ 140mm
I have always enjoyed taking photos, but I did not acquire a serious interest until late 2017 when my finance persuaded me to purchase my first DSLR. Since then I have jumped in head first while learning and practicing everything I can. I enjoy photographing landscape, automotive, aerial imagery, and I work real estate photography in my spare time. I joined Caveman Camera Club in 2018 from the suggestion of a friend.

Congratulations! Ross on a beautiful image. Look for Ross’s image in the Daily Courier sometime very soon!
Enhance your portraits and landscape images using simple techniques from inexpensive bounce cards to speed lights and strobes.
This introduction to the basics will help you get more out of your time shooting images. This is the introduction Larry usually does at the beginning of his in person workshop on Lighting Basics.
The goal is to give you a foundation for exploring the world of fill light and give you practical information on understanding light, simple to more complex tools, and things you can do to practice.
We all have to start somewhere….

Hi All;
Just an update. We will be having a May competition on Zoom. It will be held on May 13. The regular email with all the details will be going out to members next Tuesday, and the deadline for photos will be midnight, May 10.
This photograph was taken in mid-March, 2020, in Torres Del Paine National Park, in Chilean Patagonia. It was the day of our much anticipated arrival at the park, after two weeks exploring wine country, and the lakes district in Chile. My husband and I had spent many hours in our rental car, driving to the park, and were eager to get out, hike, and photograph this amazing place. This hike especially had been recommended to us because the famously fierce Patagonian winds were NOT blowing on this particular afternoon. I shot this photo as we finished our hike and the evening glow lit up the wall next to Los Cuernos (The Horns). I saw these mountains several more times in our remaining four days in the park, but this was the most beautiful view. Unfortunately, we had to cut our trip short by a day as the park closed due to measures to control the spread of corona virus. Canon 7D. 24-70 Canon lens at 33m, ISO 400, f9.5, 1/125
