Elephant Rocks 5/4/2014

Made it out to Elephant Rocks this morning. It looked like it was going to be a blown out bluebird morning with zero clouds but as I got closer to the water I noticed a low band of clouds on the horizon. As I setup to start shooting the land was getting just warm enough […]

Hillmans Highway!
by Ben
Made it up to Mount Washington/Tuckerman’s Ravine/Hillmans highway last week. We set out to possibly go all the way to the top with plans to ski the ravine on the way back down. Avalanche conditions were considerable (3 out of 5) with wind load on frozen slush with zero visibility up high so we went […]

March 2014!
by Ben
another day another ketchup post… Sorry again for doing these but I want to try to keep the kids shots more on time again this year. I’ve got a new camera (fuji X-T1) which required new software (LR5.4) as an excuse but I promise I’ll try to keep up better after this. This posts takes […]

Plum Beach Light in the fog
by Ben
This is an oldie that somehow never made it to the blog… This was shot February 2nd 2014. This is one of my last landscape shots with my 5Diii back when I had a tamron 150-600 in EF mount. I’d ordered it when it was announced and it shipped after I’d already started selling my […]
