The Autumnal season and associated harvest wouldn't be complete without the ubiquitous tractor.

Haven't been shooting much the past month, but I saw a picture today on instagram that made me want to revisit some shots from earlier in the year. Here's the church in Vik from my Icelandic adventure this spring. Pentax 645z and 80-160mm FA (I think?). Not bad for shooting out of the window of a moving car? An area where CMOS definitely has an edge so I could bump up the ISO to get a fast enough shutter speed to avoid [too much] motion blur. The 80-160mm FA was a really handy focal length and I'm thinking about maybe getting one to try on the X1D and see what happens.

Out early yesterday as my son was playing in a football match (soccer) on the coast near us. The lure of early morning light on the dunes nearby soon drew me away from the game GFX + GF 45mm:

An insanely dangerous shooting vantage to get to but well worth it as no bones or gear was broken...

This forest has been interesting to shoot over the years. One year we bumped into a grizzly bear in these woods. My wife and I didn't see it until we were ten yards from the bear. We could hear it eating berries. My wife was not pleased with me.

This is Tunstall reservoir in Durham, N E England. Very few people around, just some wildlife and nice scenery:

Camellia

Even in the coldness of these wintery nights in north Florida, my camellias are blooming. Image was made on Tri-X (400) and around the same time, other images were made with Pan F (50) to show a friend new to film processing the usefulness of stand development. Both films were processed in the same tank with pyrocat HD for an hour, and both came out well. I like this image best because of how the highlights glow a bit with the Tri-X over the stark sharpness of the Pan F.

Stunning Darr, stunning!

The closing of the colorful Autumn season generally coincides with deer rutting season.

Thanks ever so much Dave, very much appreciated! Often its a matter of luck and/or being in the right place at the right time....although the Buck scared the living daylights out of me out of me. He came up right in front of me as I was looking down and changing lenses, which resulted in my quickly gazing up to see what the rustling sound was all about. At that secluded hour and place in the woods, it certainly wasn't expected. Then again, what does this "city slicker" (me of course) know about life in the woods...LOL!

The promise of some snowfall had me up at daft o'clock heading out to a location I've been visiting over the last few weeks. While our village was covered in the white stuff, nowhere else was. Still it was nice to get out in the cold and capture the dawn.

When it gets thick enough, ice fog can eliminate any evidence of a horizon as it did on this day. I drove quite extensively around Red Deer County, Alberta in the fog, which I find very enjoyable! Everything becomes very isolated and a feeling of loneliness pervades. Sounds become muted and whenever I stopped to have a look around or take a picture, I am sure to turn of the vehicle to enjoy the silence. Usually I’ll here a magpie, raven or maybe a distant farm dog barking. One day while out I heard a rather loud gunshot! I couldn’t see who was responsible and I’m certain whomever it was couldn’t see me, so I hightailed it out of there pretty quick!
