Key West

The Florida Keys were in the news this week as TS Isaac passed through on its way to the Gulf.  Seeing this reminded me of a wonderful trip Christina and I took to Miami and the Keys in 2010.  I took over 100 pictures that week!  Here are some of my favorites....

Chasing Waterfalls

Here are some shots from my first attempt to shot waterfalls.  I was going for that real smooth effect on the water that comes from using a very slow shutter speed.   I was excited to see that I could actually take a picture like this, but I learned fast that to make them really good, next time I would have to use a tripod!   I also purchased a nuetral density filter which looks like a sunglass for the camera.  I will help me reduce the amount of light in the exposure so I can slow the shutter down even more.  I'm excited to give this another try come fall!

These pictures were taken at Bushkill Falls in Pennsylvania.
