Trumpeter Swan Society Image

One of the swans I photographed last winter on a freezing cold day in Northern Minnesota

I was honored to see the interest in the Trumpeter Swan society in my image. And the kind words!

Ok now it’s pouring. I don’t mind some rain but it’s really coming down. Time to come in till sunset I think. I’m here for two days, it’s OK

The road to the shot in Hallstatt

By , September 18, 2011 8:22 am

There is really only one road in this town so site searching is not hard to do. I am going to take a ferry across the lake and see how it looks from over there tomorrow. And get up at dawn and check for fog. That would be great!!

Photographing Hallstatt Austria

Drove from Salzburg to Hallstatt today. For a country that has the Autobahn, getting from A to b is really scenic from a route standpoint. Thank God for Garmins in cars. I’d never get anywhere without that thing.

One Sunset, 2 Castles

I was able to make the best use of a sunset ever. I could stand in one place and shoot two castles just by walking across the road. It was awesome!!

Site searching Bavaria

Spent the day site searching 2 castles. The best angle to shoot from, time of day, etc.
Turns out I would have to rappel down a sheer rock face to get one, so that is probably not going to happen.
But I found good sunset shots for both of the 2 closest ones.
Tomorrow morning I get up early and start hiking a very steep climb and see how it looks.
