PACIFIC COAST HIWAY DIPTYCH

Here's a couple of shots I took while walking down the Pacific Coast Highway in Huntinton Beach, CA.

JAKE AND TOM

I entered these two shots in the BAPC Honor's Program as a diptych under the assignment of "WILDLIFE".  They were both shot at Cade's Cove in the Great Smokey Mountain National Park this past June.

VELVET CROWN

I photographed this deer off Cade's Cove Loop Road in the Great Smokey Mountains National Park in early June of this year.  I entered it in the Bay Area Photo Club of Clear Lake's Honor's Night program under the September topic of "Wildlife" and was awarded a bronze award.

CADES COVE DEER #4

This deer was standing in a grassy meadow off Cade's Cove Loop Rd in the Great Smokey Mountains National Park in early June.

HIGH POV DEER

I took this shot of a deer relaxing on the grounds of Rock City in Chattanooga, Tennessee back in early June. I used Olympus' native software to apply a “diorama" effect that helps exaggerate the high POV the shot was taken from.

SEED POD

This flower and seed pod was photographed one afternoon in my front yard.  I shot it with my 60mm Olympus macro lens handheld at f18 ISO400 1/125 and an EV of -2.7.

DEEP CREEK BRIDGE

This shot was taken along the trail at Deep Creek in the Great Smokey Mountain National Park just outside of Bryson City, NC.  I shot the low POV off hand at 1/30th of a second at f11 with a 22mm focal length [44mm equivalent] and ISO200.
