•Savor It•.After living in Northern Nevada for 6 years and having only made it up to Tahoe a handful of times, I honestly feel like I've been squandering my time in this beautiful area of the world. Well enough of that — this is a year for change — in a BIG way!.For those on this journey with me, I do apologize for all the lupine images over the last few weeks… I swear I'm only sharing my favorites and am trying to break them up by interspersing other content, and truly hope you continue to see these majestic flowers in a variety of new ways with each successive image..That being said, this is an image that popped into my head when trying to fall asleep last night and wouldn't let me be. When initially shooting this scene I used a method of "bracketing", where I kept the ISO and aperture constant and changed the shutter speed to take two levels of overexposed images, two levels of underexposed images and one "properly" exposed image. I then made this composite of the 5 bracketed shots using Lightroom's HDR merge function, and added a bit of color enhancement in Color Efex Pro to really help the colors "pop". Thank you for viewing!. 2016-06-12 8:10PM️Nikon D750 ️Nikkor 24-70mm @ 24mm️ISO 100 ️f/22 ️1/6th – 2.5 sec

•A Matter of Time•.How often do we get out of our comfort zones and try something new? Once a week? Once a month? Once a year? The farther in-between these types of experiences results in it becoming only a matter of time before life starts feeling monotonous….Earlier this spring I found myself in downtown Reno waiting for the sun to rise, standing on a bridge with my lens hanging out and my sensor fully "exposed" for sixty seconds straight. This sort of "virgin" outing is the result of a blatant act of my camera's public "nudity". One might even venture say it was a full minute of "indecent" exposure. Luckily no-one was around to alert the fuzz, but I may have captured a wee bit in this shot..I know, the puns are terrible… I'll show myself out ;). 2016-05-28 5:24AM️Nikon D750 ️Nikkor 24-70mm @ 24mm️ISO 100 ️f/22 ️60 sec️Singh-Ray 77mm Vari-ND Filter
