    small falls

    Very Nice Rocky! I know those falls. Took a quick crack at them a bit further upstream (above the tracks) this past weekend. In the middle of chasing trains, so no tripod handy, just hand held. This is one I like, not quite up to yours though.

    Cream of the Crop of 2009

    I just tried uploading an geotagged image to my Pbase account, and it worked just fine. Normally I manually tag the images I post there, but if the data is part of the exif, then Pbase will allow it to be seen on a map. Take a look: http://www.pbase.com/ottercove/image/121322981 Third...

    Cream of the Crop of 2009

    Like most electronic devices that interface to a computer, at least half the value is in the software that comes with the device. I've only used this product, so I can't make any first hand comparisons, but the software seems pretty reasonable. It allows you to download logs from the...

    Cream of the Crop of 2009

    It's a Holux- looks like an oversized canister of Kodak film. Works well, eats batteries for snacks, so now I have one more device to power up in my truck.

    Cream of the Crop of 2009

    Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Oh, and thanks so much for the compliments. Certainly trains are at the top, but the passion for photography is the driving force. Looking forward to seeing some of your anti-railroad photos. ;)

    Rocky - a dozen of my best from 2009

    That's a wonderful collection Rocky! Hard to pick a favorite, but I'd guess it might be Mt. Shuksan. Where is Picture Lake!

    Arline - Best of '09

    Arline: You did a great job with the Art Glass. I'd never imagined any of it could look so good. Also a very fine tribute to your fallen friend and the other fallen officers.

    Steve E. - Favorites of '09

    Finally had time to spend view the best of 2009. Great work Steve! I really enjoyed the Mt Hood shots, nothing sets off a scene better than a great sky and a lenticular cloud is hard to beat. You also did a great job with the Elowah falls shot.

    Cream of the Crop of 2009

    For me, 2009 was certainly a difficult year in all things but photography. So far in 2010, I haven't been inspired to take anything but test shots for a newly acquired GPS logger. So I'm glad we have this thread, it's helped me appreciate some of the photos ops I enjoyed last year. My main...

    Stopping a train...

    Bob: I've invited Mitch Goldman to visit us and perhaps give a brief tutorial (or something along those lines). Perhaps we'll hear from him soon.

    Stopping a train...

    In the pan/pace shot above, I was using the 40D's live view function. So the camera was at "arms length" and I was trying to move the camera, hands and arms in a straight line. Now that you mention it, I've not ever got a good explanation of that part of the technique from Mitch. Maybe I...

    Stopping a train...

    That shot was supposed to be a pace shot, but somebody pulled in front of me and frankly I don't recall if my truck was moving or just the camera. But as Mitch has explained to me, a well done Pan shot has the same characteristics as a pace shot. I.e. the plane of the lens is parallel to the...

    Stopping a train...

    Bob: The last one looks pretty good. About the pan head, you might want to reconsider. From the Pan Master over at Railpictures.net, Mitch Goldman, comes the recommendation of follow through. Sort of like spray painting a wall. You want to follow the subject in a parallel plane...
