“Yellowstone in the winter is beautiful, and the bison seem to carry an incredible amount of snow with their coarse coats. They are well-suited for this harsh environment, and wonderful to photograph. These two were digging deeply into the snow for the sparse offerings of dead grass – if it was to be found. Photo taken with an Olympus OM-1, with the Olympus 150mm-400mm at 400mm, 7.1f, 1/1250 sec. at ISO 1600.
The Wild Rivers Photography Club has really helped me develop as a photographer with the help and guidance of the professionals in the group – they love to share and coach to help newer photography enthusiasts evolve. A great group of photographers!”
Congratulations, Lynda, on a wonderful capture! Look for Lynda’s image coming soon in the Daily Courier!
It was a special day down in Phoenix, AZ, this past September when I had the privilege of photographing a young dancer who had never experienced a professional photoshoot. We started by getting a team of professionals to work their magic on her hair and makeup.
During the photoshoot, I had some talented assistants helping me manipulate the dress fabric to create a sense of movement and grace in the shots. It was a team effort to capture the essence of her performance.
I used my Nikon Z6 with a 50mm lens to capture this moment. I love the result of this image, that tells the story of this young dancer’s journey and her passion for her craft. It also reflects the dedication and talent of our team. It’s a testament to the power of photography to capture the beauty of a fleeting moment and transform it into a timeless work of art.
