Utah's Wild Horses


We went on a camping trip on the West Desert of Utah to see the wild horses. We are required to stay 100 feet away from them so I used a 500 mm lens to take the pictures. At one point on our trip we were standing on the road when they decided to cross quite close to us. I turned to a 120 mm lens to continue getting photos of them. I also cropped the images to get larger views of them. Enjoy

Rock Outcropping

We took a trip to Twin Falls Idaho to see some of our grandchildren as an excuse so I could take photos of Shoshone Falls, J/K. But I did take three trips to the falls to get photos of it. This one was taken in near total darkness on May 4th at 9:00 PM. It really was dark so it is a long exposure with open aperture, high ISO, and EV as high as it would go. I really like the way it makes the water so milky. Enjoy

Falls and Bird

Along with the Shoshone Falls was a rainbow and pigeon. I was amazed that it would fly so close to the falls without getting drowned. The falls made me dizzy being so close to them and seeing the water falling so fast. Enjoy

Falls Detail

This is a detail shot of the falls shot at about 4:30 PM on May 5, 2020. I had to really crank on my camera to slow down the shutter time to get the water smoother than normal. The falls face directly west so the sun was shining full on them. Enjoy

Aspen Tree Tops 4 MB

I had a lot of fun with Photoshop and ON1 Photo RAW 2020 creating this image. I really can't call it a photo due to the massive amount of post production manipulation that I applied to this. It is art for arts sake.
