Black&White Threatening and a Tad Surreal

Here’s the previous picture in a b&w rendering:

Schwarz-Weiß bedrohlich und ein wenig surreal

Dark Clouds and a Lonesome Car

On the first day of our recent RailTrailsRoadTrip we had a break at a rest stop on IH 20 in Louisiana. The sky really looked ominous there, but luckily the thunderstorm didn’t get us – at least not on that day:

Dunkle Wolken und ein einsames Auto

Am ersten Tag unseres RailTrailsRoadTrip neulich haben wir an einem Rastplatz am Interstate Highway 20 in Louisiana eine kurze Pause eingelegt. Der Himmel sah dort ziemlich bedrohlich aus, aber zum Glueck hat uns – jedenfalls an dem Tag – das Unwetter nicht erreicht:

Before Sunrise in Our Garden

This morning, I happened to be up early and caught a few shots in our garden before sunrise, with the moon and the morning star still up in the sky, while the first pink colours were just showing up. It’s amazing, though, how much detail the camera catches. There’s plenty in this picture – after enhancing it, of course – which I had not been able to see with the naked eye, e.g. the deer in the foreground, to the left, or the hills further up Lower Crabapple Road just showing through the trees on the left.

Another extreme wide-angle lens view with some quite dramatic effect, again in a picture taken across the Blue Mesa Reservoir on the Gunnison River in the Curecanti National Recreation Area in Colorado.

An extreme wide-angle lens can create quite dramatic effects, as here in a picture taken across the Blue Mesa Reservoir on the Gunnison River in the Curecanti National Recreation Area in Colorado.
