Spent weekend in Astoria and the beaches in the area, some shots I’m happy with from the trip.
Happy with some of the shots I got from Seafair – was a bit far, but it worked out!
It was only afterwards realized I got some lens spots, likely from whale viewing trip.
Some interesting clouds while taking a walk
Went on a whale watching cruise around Salish Sea/San Juan Islands, got pictures of a school of Orcas, some Cormorants and a few Sea Lions.
Think it may be time to look at some polarizing filters though.
Got the opportunity to go to France and Le Mans for the 24-hour endurance race. Took plenty of photos but most didn’t turn out the way I wanted, heres the ones I liked the most.
Decided to try out new lens at the local park; pretty happy with the photos I got from it. First one, thought it had a twig while taking the photo, it was only after I got home realized what I’d gotten.
Second one had me precariously chasing bees to get this one.
Went for a bit of a walk at Twin Falls, stuck with single lens and mostly messed about with shutter speed to get shots of water I wanted.
This is another night shoot, mostly getting accustom to both the camera and new lens.
I’m not particularly happy with any of the pictures, but feel I learnt something at least.
