I took this one of my 79 year old dad with his 82 year old wife of two years. My mother passed in 2020 and it's been nice for my rapidly aging dad to have a great companion. I caught them on a walk (which is hard for my dad since he's having serious health issues). Simera 35/1.4
Eric, I remembered what you posted a while back about our more appreciation for images of people close to us years later than great images of landscape or whatever. Although that applies to that group but even now, that image is touching. Well captured!

My last day at Zion for this year, rode a bike again into the main canyon for the fall color.
Love the color contrast, Ross. So you have the Sony PZ 16-35, the 24-105 and the Tammy 50-400 for this trip?
Thanks, Douglas! Well, my main backpack I take in the field usually does have that combo of 50-400, 24-105, and 16-35. But I also brought a 2nd backpack that stays at the campground or in the truck and is filled with other lenses I might want on certain shoots or to test more or as backups. Things like the Sigma 500, Sigma 14-24, 70-200/2.8 GMII, 50-300 for lightweight hiking, 90 macro, Viltrox 16/1.8, 20/1.8, 35/1.4 GM for astro, Tamron 28-200 if I need a one-lens hiking solution.
That's a lot of lenses to travel with! . Nice to have options!

Caught some aurora last night up in the North Cascades:

Great work, Mike!
I went out to the Gettysburg Battle Field last night to shoot aurora, very very faint color, might have something to do with the thick clouds. I tried both the CV 21mm F1.4 and the CV 35 f1.2.
Doug, although the Northern Lights didn't manifest themselves clearly but the resulting images evoke an eery feeling. I like'm!

This 6-image vertical pano of Zhangjiajie is from a higher elevation that I snapped as soon as there was some clearance in the foreground. I waited some 45 minutes to get that image. The scenery extends further into the area to the back. Yes, some fog would add more drama but it was simply too foggy that morning. Oh, well...
When I got there, there was 2 layers of folks that, just like myself, trying their best under those foggy condition. The overwhelming majority though wanted to just get their pictures in front of the majestic landscape. Nothing wrong with that though... and to each his/her own.
Thank you Joshua! I saw an amazing aurora shot from Gettysburg on the same night, I believe it was taken after I left , when the clouds cleared.
I love your shots from Zhangjiajie and Mt. Huangshan with the fog, very typical Chinese painting looks. Next year if I go to China, I will try to make a trip to Huangshan and spend 2 or 3 days on the mountain top.
Thank you, Doug! I am seriously considering of going back to Zhangjiajie, maybe even in the winter. But now, I am paying the price: a severe jet lag case after spending 5 weeks in Asia. The duration doesn't matter; it is more my old body that will take a while to recover. Oh, well...
When I was younger, it usually took me 3 or 4 days to adjust to the jet lag to/from Asia, now maybe two weeks. .
I have seen beautiful pictures of Zhangjiajie in snow. I bought a photograph book from a photographer who camps out there frequently, truly amazing scenery. I think it's difficult for us in the U.S. to plan a trip to shoot Zhengjiajie in snow, it's such an unpredictable occurrence.
I still have hundreds of shots from Zhengjiajie that I haven't worked on, here is a few I edited this morning. I don't have the Sony infrared camera anymore, I loved it and wanted a higher resolution IR body. Sony's high resolution (like A7RIII and A7IV) bodies easily show stripes in sky when they are converted to B&W infrared. I bought a Canon R5 just to convert to a B&W infrared camera, but I can't post shots from the Canon R5 here. I got some IR shots that I like a lot from my recent trip to Colorado and Utah.
