Week 4

I have three VERY late posts - one of the bi-products of working full time is that when things get busy, this is the first thing to slide.

The photo from this week is from our cabin.  Fish Lake froze over (despite the warmer winter - we had one good spell of very cold weather that resulted in a deep freeze for the lake).  Ice Fishing is quite the sport in the winter time up here - the fishermen use an auger to drill through the ice and create their own little fishing hole.



Photo Details:

Exposure time 1/640 sec, Aperture f/13, ISO 400, Focal Length 300 mm, Lens Canon EF 70-300mm, F4-5.6, handheld

Why This Photo:
I tried using my zoom lens to see what would happen here - the fishermen were so far away, that I wanted to try to show some perspective of distance, while still being able to maintain a little detail.

Challenges/Lessons Learned:
Snow photography is tricky - I kept messing with my metering modes to explore how to best get some detail without blowing out the photo.
