Big Sur, Night One

[Lacero]

Looks like you used a slow shutter speed to shoot that pic giving the shoreline a milky look.

Amazing & Perfect if it is brought into PS to get the powerlines and jet trail out of course.

Yeah that is right but you can't have it all in one go eh

Yep, it's about a 10 sec exposure f/22 with two 8X and one 4X neutral density filters stacked.

I pulled some images that I will post tonight if people want to use them for screensavers; I just have to post-process them a bit first.

OK, here are the ones I'll FTP to my site tonight. Again, forgive any color problems, the iBook screen blows, even calibrated.

I am too. Be sure to post how it was. Hopefully the weather was alright; it looks alright out right now from my house, just cloudy, but it's not raining.

The pictures are awesome by the way.

That was with a Sigma 12-24 f4.5/5.6. The rest were taken with an EF 24-70 f2.8L. I'll fix up the colors once I get home. They're way off in a couple.

The marathon sucked, basically. I ate some bad sushi Friday which, shall we say for the purposes of not being too graphic, resulted in some severe lower GI problems for the first half of the race, which in turn left me dehydrated and puking.

BUT

I finished. My worst time ever (5:20), but I made it. I considered quitting several times I felt so bad. Now, a couple of Vicodins later, and my back isn't having spasms and my whole body doesn't feel like it has been steamrolled.

I'm not going to bother with posting them online for screensavers, but if anyone wants one, just PM me you e-mail, I'd happily send whichever image you want.


Thanks to all for looking and for the support.

I'm so sorry about the race! I had the GI issues during a race once (only 10 miles, ironically called the Run Through Hell ) so I totally sympathize!

I love that wide angle too, btw.
