Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III__EF70-200mm f/2.8L USM__0.7 sec at f / 22__ISO 400
Later on the same evening that I photographed Rock and Water, Cascade Falls, Yosemite National Park, California 2011, I also spent some time along the roaring Merced River. There is something magical about standing next to massive amounts of water thundering by so loudly that the rest of the world is drowned out. The sky reflected beautifully in the rapids. I made about 80 frames, playing with various shutter speeds and compositions. I liked this version which shows the strong streaking and jumping of white water.
Enjoy! Bill

Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III__TS-E90mm f/2.8__1/30 sec at f / 22__ISO 200
Practice, practice…
I’ve been very frustrated lately because I haven’t been able to get out of the office and up to Yosemite for waterfalls, reflections in the meadow, corn lilies in the high country. Fortunately, my water lilies are in bloom and I check them out every day. We had an amazing rain storm Tuesday night and the next morning, and so I took a lunch break on my patio. My water lilies had been washed clean and were gleaming with water drops. I used my trusty 90mm Tilt Shift lens, making two frames to merge into this square composition using Photo Merge in Photoshop CS5. The storm was starting to clear, with the sun on the edge of a cloud which gives this image a fresh and sparkling mood.
So when I finally get up to Yosemite Valley next week, I’ll have had recent practice. Practice seeing every day, get your camera out whenever and wherever you get inspired, and be ready for the next opportunity. Oh yes, and it might just happen in your back yard!
Enjoy, Bill

Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III__EF70-200mm f/2.8L USM__2.0 sec at f / 19__ISO 100
I have been very overwhelmed with work and thus have a large backlog of images to process. I made this image last month at Happy Isle in Yosemite, which is an amazing place anytime but especially during high water. This subtle image is part of my ongoing efforts to reveal the Inner Yosemite! I hope you enjoy it and also hope to post more new work soon.

Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III__EF24-105mm f/4L IS USM__1/15 sec at f / 16__ISO 400
Last week, I was in the Toronto area with my family for a wedding. I brought along my camera and a few lenses in case I found inspiration. Staying at our family’s home, I took a short walk about their property on a drizzly day. I am not sure if these plants are hosta, or maybe veratrum, but I know I loved the patterns. Does anyone know the common and/or latin name?
