Three first Places

Balancing Bee Rose Christner

This was taken off my back deck with the 400 lens and an adapter (560mm). I was practicing on tracking bees. 1/1000 sec, F8, ISO 1250, Canon EOS 80D. I always shoot with a tripod to reduce camera shake. I always use Manual on my camera.

Fall Creek Jim Ingraham

Fall Creek is off Hwy 58 (Willamette Hwy) about an hour southeast of Eugene. It’s a beautiful day hike with some impressive falls. The creek is wonderfully surrounded with greenery. This image was taken in June a couple years ago. Shot with a Nikon D850 and 24 mm lens on a tripod. F16 at about a second and ISO 64.

Under The Fuchsia Rose Christner

I was out practicing tracking the Hummers under the Fuchsias and playing with the speed from the Canon EOS 80D. I used the 400 lens with a 1.5 adapter (560mm). On a tripod I shot on Manual at 1/4000 sec, F8, ISO 4000. I used natural lighting at 1:30pm and reflected light from our white trellis that illuminated the Hummer from underneath. Practice, practice, practice!
