This is an infra-red edit of the single most humorous thing I have ever seen in a graveyard. I was Sacramento’s Old City Cemetery where countless historic figures are interred when I turned around and saw this sight. I could tell you it was a mother crow feeding a very large youngster; the young are easily as big as the parents while they are being fed outside of the nest. I could tell you that it was “bird season” for crows and this was some sort of bonding ritual between an old couple that had been together for years. Or I could tell you that it was about 10000 degrees in the graveyard when I took this shot and the birds were panting like crazy, especially the ones appropriately dressed (or “feathered”? “Downed”???) in black. But I’d rather say the thought that came to mind as soon as this painfully obvious shot was noticed: You REALLY know you’re dead when you look up to see two crows on a tombstone with your name on it, singing in harmony. That should confirm it nicely. THIS PIECE IS FEATURED IN: Amazing Graves. Thank you AG Group for remembering my little shot and honouring it once it returned! Ya’ll rock! The Necessary Evility / Nikon D80 / Nikkor 70-300mm lens / Exposure: 1/160 / F/stop: 5.6 / ISO: 400 (but I can’t imagine why) / Focal length: 300mm / Metering mode: Pattern / Creative setting: Vivid and actually important since that setting increases sharpness before editing to monochrome / no tripod (Maybe that explains the shutter speed and ISO) / hella hot outside (Perhaps 100 degrees F.) / No crows were not bothered in this shot / No, I’m not really sure what they were singing. Forgot my babblefish. / Corel Paintshop Pro Photo XI did the editing / shot taken due east

Location: Redding California / Technique: HDR / Workflow: 6+ Raws / Equip: Canon 5D OG Featured in Group: / “Northern California Style” – March 11, 2009 / “Night Photography” – April 19, 2009 This Bridge is very special to my Wife and I because my Daughter took her fist couple steps here. Since it was dark out that night the Bridge illuminated perfectly, enough for a 1yr old to be curious why the ground was lit. I was not able to see my Sons first steps because I was working over seas and promised I will be there for my Daughter when she takes hers.

Both the grand and the intimate aspects of nature can be revealed in the expressive photograph… Both can stir enduring affirmations and discoveries… and can surely help the spectator in his search for identification… with the vast world of natural beauty and the wonder surrounding him…. ~ Ansel Adams ~

Location: Sacramento California / Technique: HDR (High Dynamic Range) / Workflow: 6+ Raws – Matix – Finalized in Cs4 / Equip: Canon 5D OG / . / . / A very challenging image to edit indeed. Setting the custom white balance was the easy part, compensating for the spot light streaming down the statue creating the light blue aura was the hard part. Was able to blend the colors to match for the ceiling and statue but the flooring had to be totally desaturated then later tinted with a yellow layer at about 7% opacity. / . / .

JJ is one of my best friends from Weedy Field. He was always the most inquisitive blue jay around but he was also unusually quiet for a jay. When I started bringing peanuts, he’d murmur unlike anything I’d heard in a blue jay before. Now, I can call him from 200 yards away with a very weak whistle and he’ll land in the branch closest to my head and murmur. He’s not ready to be hand-fed yet but we will come well within reach and look at me with patient eyes and an eager beak. LOL! This shot came from the hand-held Nikon D80 again but the next shots should come from the camera being triggered remotely while on a tripod. With any good timing at all, I’ll catch him much closer with a wider angle 18 55mm lens and possibly looking at me with those surprising seemingly intelligent eyes. Oh, and yes, the peanuts are unsalted since I don’t need to be paying for health care for scrub jays or the brown tree squirrels who share them. ;-)
