A few Snaps

Postby BFMF » Mon Jan 04, 2010 5:40 pm

When I was up in North Idaho over Christmas week, a couple friends and I decided to go up into the mountains and hike up to Snow Falls to take some photos. What an adventure. Managed to get a few decent photos.

Thought it would be cool to drive around and try to take a few photos of some christmas lights... :D

Was curious to see how this would turn out.... :-?

My girlfriend and I were driving around Hauser Lake lastnight. I happened to have my camera and tripod with me and snapped this photo. Nothing spectacular, but I think its kinda cool


F/4, ISO 100, 24mm, and 10 sec exposure time

What do you all think?

Suggestions, hints, and constructive criticism comments are most welcome.... ;D

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Andrew as always wonderful shots and I too like the water tower...(gosh darn I hoped I used the right too/to).  ;D

Oh by the way my friend, you must get tired carrying that darn 50 Cal all over the place, why not buy a good .38 and put it in a holster?... ;D

Okay...Okay I give in.... :)    ;D

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Thanks guys, glad you like them. For some reason, I like taking low light photos, which reminds me that I took some down in Portland on Thanksgiving break that I could post...

Thanks. Nowdays, my weapon of choice for self defense is a .40 cal... ;D

Terrific shots!  The tower pic is very dramatic with the lighting, and the falls look beautiful  :o
