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
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

Congratulations! Pam on a beautiful image. Look for Pam’s image in the Daily Courier sometime very soon!
Here’s our April 2020 competition video. Thanks to everyone who made this possible, shout out to Larry Pollock for editing and making this ready for the web.
The video may take a moment before it starts to play – please be patient and enjoy.
Point of Conception was a project that took a couple of months from conjuring up an ideal to completed print. The swimmers are actually the little spoons that come with Cosco Creme Brulee, individually ground to the general likeness of a sperm. The background is an opaque light table, backlit with a rectangular softbox and red gel on the flash. I made numerous attempts on the top lighting before settling on a localized flash through a snoot with grid. Even at minimal setting on the flash the light was too bright and harsh. I ended up choking down the light with a black cardstock washer and some cotton filter material. The final challenge was cooking the perfect egg. My camera settings were: ISO 320, f/7.1, 1/160th second, and 32mm. Canon 5d, Mk IV camera and 24-105mm lens.

Mystical Sunset Cynthia Briseno
Mystical was shot at Tule Lake with my Canon 5d mark IV along with my 100-400 lens. I shot it in the sunset as it caught my eye as we were driving out. I stacked 3 photos and the colors came out!
