Montana Photo Trip
« on: August 13, 2009, 05:28:59 PM »
I had a chance to get away for a day and a half, so I made a quick trip over to Montana.  I found quite a few willing subjects, and had some fun hunting them with the camera.  Here are a few of the images I took.  In addition to the subjects in the pics, I also saw a badger, but was unable to "shoot" it due to it's skittishness and the lack of light (it was at dusk).

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Yeah, it was a great time.  Actually, most of the day and a half was spent driving.  And sleeping in my car :(   So the shooting was only for about 3 hours Monday evening before dark and then 3 1/2 hours Tuesday morning before the bright full sunlight became too harsh for good photos.  Being able to shoot in the evening and in the early morning when the light is good is critical.  Plus, that's wehn the critters are active.

Here are a couple more:

Those are some really nice pictures. What type of editing program do you use?

RIght now, just iPhoto (Apple's base program).  I try to get the photos as good as possible in the camera so that very little editing is needed.  I just purchased Aperture, but haven't really used it much - it'll take a while to become proficient with it.
