The photo is at Mammoth Hot Springs, the orange is due to the mineral build up.

Got married two weeks ago and we went to South Padre Island, TX, for a few days for our honeymoon. Went for a walk on the beach, I asked if I could bring my camera (she said yes). There were a bunch of families out there with flashlights looking for crabs and there were a lot of crabs. She was patient with me. The moon eventually came up too. The next night we went back to the beach without the camera and took that walk.

Camera: Sony A550 Lens: Tamron 17-50mm 2.8, cheap lightweight aluminum tripod.
I think I had the metering messed up as the pics seemed underexposed and grainy. I've taken other night shots that weren't grainy. Next time I'll pay better attention to settings.

In the very first image it looks like you shoot a f/11 for 5 seconds.

I'd try to open that aperture up as much as possible. If your still using the kit lens that would mean f/3.5 most likely. Otherwise a f/1.8 or larger lens would be best for night time.

Secondly, I'd go with much longer exposures than 5 seconds at night, somewhere in the 20-30 second range.

You got me thinking to post some night photos though!

Next to an experimental 182RG. One of Cessna's technology testbeds back in the day.

Sweet shot, how did you manage to get right up next to the plane?

I think most of those beach shots were done between 8 and 20 seconds and between f/8 and f/11 or so. Just guessing. Using the lens mentioned at the bottom of the post, a Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8.

These are unofficial wedding photos taken with my camera that was handed between two people. Melody's sister did the actual photos and they're posted on another website.

With her two daughters (now my stepdaughters)

With her parents

With my parents

The wedding was done on the bridge behind us in the first photo (Faust Street Bridge in New Braunfels, TX) at 11am. We were already starting to sweat, even in the shade. It's Texas! The reception was in walking distance and air conditioned. The back yard was used for family pics and such.

Snapped a few of the bike after I got her all washed up

Fun in the sun on the 4th of July

Few from the weekend

I did a solo ride to Little Crater Lake this weekend. Sadly, the Droid HD just doesn't do this location any justice! The colors are washed. Its so blue tho!

I don't want to duplicate a bunch of posts so the bulk of the pictures are here. Just wanted to share the beauty on the Mt! http://www.600riders.com/forum/usa-pacific/49202-fizzer-turned-adventure-bike-2.html#post548423

Nice. I bet a polarized lens would bring out more of the blue and cut the reflection.

Thanks tho!

Hummingbirds are tough little buggars to photograph....this little orange one showed up a few days ago, and has staked his claim to my feeder...he won't let any other bird near it.
