First Ice

Winter has been slow to arrive in the West, but a couple of weeks ago, we had a cold snap, resulting in some fun ice formations. I spent several days working a shot on Rattlesnake Creek. This is the vlog and images from that experience. Thanks so much for watching!

So glad you didn't forget us in the time of ice! Merry Christmas to you and your wife!!!

Hahaha. Yeah, it has been such a slooooow winter. This is my only real outing so far this season. I am hungry for some full-on winter, but it doesn't seem to be happening. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you!

Great Find and so well executed! That is a portpholio shot there.

Thanks so much, Eric. I hope that you are having a nice winter and holiday season. Looking forward to hanging again soon.

That is an amazing find and photo. I think I was at that same spot this afternoon taking some photos of that tree trunk in the water. The swirly is nowhere to be found. Maybe it will return with colder weather. Thanks for making another vlog-always interesting and entertaining. Merry Christmas from the Rattlesnake Shepherds.

Wow, nice photo find! Very nice image! So what were the final shutter speed/aperture/ISO? Did you hyperfocal focus?
Happy Holidays!🎄🎄🎄🎁🎁🎁

[@brianchristiansonphotograp3557]

Yeah, I ended up getting it in a single hyperfocal frame. ISO 800, 10s @ f/16
Happy Holidays!
