George,

Okay, that was the motivation I needed to upload some photos from the last two weekends. Some nice sunsets, an agitated loon and a few other interesting items. Took a drive up to Copper Falls last Saturday, also intending to stop at St. Peter's Dome nearby. But I only managed to shoot 3 panoramic scenes before lightning and heavy rain sent me scrambling for cover. Still, I'll get them posted at some point and plan to go back for more, probably when fall colors are peaking. Also hoping to fit in a quick swing through the Keweenaw plus the Porcupine Mountains and Copper Peak this fall.
Wow, some of those sunset shots are spectacular, and I really love photo #17 from the Jul 21 group. I'm sure you're a very good fisherman, but to me you are really an excellent photographer. Thank you again for your work in this area and then being kind enough to post and share everything for all of us to enjoy.
Great stuff!
Thanks, Don. Just being there and pushing the button is half the battle... The one you mentioned is what I always refer to as a church bulletin shot...it was actually better in person and that was probably the best from about 50 tries. Sunsets look better than reality if you underexpose them - most cameras lock the focus and exposure when you half-press the shutter, so try aiming at the sun or the brightest part of the sky, half-press and hold while repositioning the camera to where you actually want it, and shoot. If you let the camera take the exposure setting from the dark, shadowed trees on the horizon, that will result in an overexposed photo with washed-out colors. And zoom in - a really wide sunset shot rarely looks as dramatic as capturing just the most colorful part of the sky, although that shot taken outside Blair from last weekend's batch has been getting a lot of compliments.
Blue.
Originally tried to post this under Summer present for Blue could not do it had to start a new thread would post a pic of the little sister if I knew how gonna try to get the kid to do it.

Next year, same time, same place and hopefully a couple of Northerns. Can't make it up in Sept. because I will be blowing my whistle and throwing yellow flags at children. Good luck!
