Bitterroot Fall

Bitterroot Fall

One of my most favorite months in Montana is the Fall time. The lighting, colors and general warm lingering evenings, imprint in my mind like nothing else. The Bitterroot is a spectacular place with mountains and streams, which never cease to amaze me as a Photographer. The activities that one can do in the fall are endless and I hope to capture every moment of this incredible place!

Summer Update

Summer Update

Its been a while since my last post but there really hasn't been very many things to photograph in Montana. The Forrest Fire Smoke sat over us in the Bitterroot for 2 weeks or so. Like a thick dense fog you could barely see 1/2 a mile a times and 1 hour of air exposure was considered Extremely hazardous.  So here are some pictures before the Forrest Fire's started in August!

Images are shot on:Pentax 645z, 35mm f3.5 and Nikon D800, 17-35mm 2.8, 70-200mm 2.8

Wisdom Summer

Wisdom Summer

I packed up my Pentax 645z and headed to Wisdom yesterday. The winds where blowing, but the light was pretty good for the most part. I unfortunately forgot my tripod at home and found myself attempting to slow down my shutter to try and capture the movement of the grass, clouds and water.  I found out quickly however, that handholding a Medium Format camera at 1/6th of a second with the mirror locked up, proved to not be the best method.

Here are some images that I took yesterday evening. Its everything from Landscapes to horses to hiking in a burn area.

Equipment used:

-Pentax 645z

-Pentax 35mm f3.5

-Pentax 80-160mm f4

My attempt at a long exposure hand held. Not so easy with a Medium format camera!

And one more attempt at hand holding 1/6th of a sec!
