So I took the new gear out for a spin yesterday to get used to it and to make sure I worked out the kinks before heading to Texas for Jeff’s Texas Landscape Safari. I took a road that I haven’t been down in I don’t know how long, but I am happy I decided to head that way.
Came across a huge grouping of California Poppies to start of the trip. All this and I forgot my macro
At this top of the hill was this great tree. Made of a great conversion to Infrared B&W
Great mailbox about 2 miles from the flowers. I can’t believe all the stuff I was finding on a 5 mile stretch of road this point.
Found this guy hanging out at the barn below.

It was a great trip and this wasn’t all I caught. Over at the Life @ 50 project you can see what else I caught and I have a few more posts coming up in the next few days to show off a bit more of what I found. Had a lot of fun with an old tractor I found that I did a Single shot HDR on.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

Should lay to rest the equipment makes the image idea. These are great Josh, as are the latest on the @50 project. Getting used to something new is always fun and for some reason fairly productive for me. Look forward to more from this section of roadway.
Good stuff as always Josh. Can’t wait for things to green up here in Michigan. Isn’t it amazing what you can find in such a short distance?
Thanks Ray, I couldn’t agree more. Having the new equipment is really sparking the GOYA in me right now. Been trying to read up on all the things I didn’t know the camera could do so I can make use of its full potential. Thank you for the comments on the Life @ 50 as well. Can’t believe how muh fun I am having.
Hey Mike, Tell me about it.. I have got to take small side roads more often.. And BTW you’re right I will need ot update my About page now
Beauties, all of these, Josh. Especially love the infrared B&W but they are all really nice. Good eyes!
Thanks Mark, really appreciate it.
