September Image of The Month 

Clearwaters   by Ross Steensland

I was scouting Stump Lake for the next morning’s photoshoot. After admiring a smoky orange sunset, I happened across Clearwater River.  The gentle water progressively edged by vibrant grass and wildflowers, resting under an old mountain forest captivated my imagination. Armed with my canon 6D MkII, Tamron 28-75mm f2.8, B&W Polarizer filter, and a sturdy tripod, I decided a long exposure in the waning light could capture the brilliant colors along with silky smooth water I was enjoying.  Exposure settings: 28mm, F11, ISO 50, 30 second exposure, edited in Adobe Lightroom.

Congratulations! Ross. We’ll be looking for your shot in the Daily Courier.
