Framing a Tower: The right Perspective.

 Clock tower in Washington DC framed by trees
This is a neat picture that I took in DC. I love the way the trees frame the clock tower. There are a lot of great pictures to be taken wherever you are, you just need the right perpective.

The Washington Monument

Washington Monument Washington D.C.

Here is some more from my trip to D.C. As you can see the leaves were colorful, and the skies were blue. Though I was there for a research conference, I happened to find ample time for taking in the sights, and shooting a few pictures. I cannot take full credit for the composition of this photo however, I saw a man with what looked like very expensive camera equipment set up and take a similar photo. I walked up quickly tweaked my settings, snapped the photo, and it took me less than a tenth of the time. It would be interesting to compare the results.

Copper Basin Idaho

As Fall’s chilling grip tightens on Idaho’s Copper Basin, the mountains transform into a patchwork of color. Snow begins to fall on the mountain peaks as the Aspen and Maple trees explode into varying shades of red and orange. Few choose to travel into this remote and rugged landscape but those that do are rewarded with spectacular views, wildlife sightings, and the opportunity to experience Idaho.

Fall in New England


Nothing says Fall like the colors in the trees of New England.  This photo was shot in New Hampshire during the month of October two years ago.  The colors were just beginning to light up throughout the trees and in spots it appeared as if sections of the woods were on fire.

“Let the trees of the forest sing, let them sing for joy before the LORD, for he comes to judge the earth.” 1 Chronicles 16:32-34
