Another cheat day I'm afraid, using a photo that was taken on Wednesday, because of being so swamped with work today.

For those who are wondering what this photo is, it's the skyline on its side on the left half, with the reflection in a muddy pool on right.

Mud clouds.

(For anyone who's wondering what they are even looking at, it's a photo of a puddle flipped upside down)

This one reminds me of the processing station at the end of the movie Aliens.  Not bad for an alleyway in Gastown.

Perhaps it's cheating, but today I'm posting a pic of one of the ones from last week that didn't make it.  Yesterday in fact.  This one has got a bit of an Endor meets Hoth vibe going on (wuttoogeekyforyou?)

First times: snowshoeing & visiting Grouse Mountain.  Fun stuff.  Not double checking camera settings and accidentally capturing images at 1080p jpeg as opposed to 4k RAW kind of sucked though.  Fortunately I managed to get some decent stuff out of it.  Here's one of the images.

I've wanted to take a star trail photo for a very long time: this my first!  Admittedly not the greatest, but I still quite like it enough to keep a record of it.

It's actually 261 photos added together .  I did this, as holding the shutter open that long would probably have resulted in the worst sensor noise ever, plus require shutter timing gear that I don't even have yet.

Next, improve my technique and use it to take a good photo lol

A bit of an exercise in manual dynamic range compression - otherwise known as "fixing a white sky and black bandstand" lol.  Kind of an interesting process trying to balance the saturation, density but also stay hazy enough to feel spooky.

I went back to get a better one of this view later in the session, but ended up trying to get too muchh in the frame.  This one emphasised the graphic nature of the shadow edge leading up to the globe which is my favourite bit.  It seems that I try to use angles like that when I design graphics, layout vfx shots etc

I've always wanted to take a photo with light trails, but weirdly never got around to doing a proper one.  Here we go!
