Some day I’ll post my bigger-picture thoughts that come from this image taken after rock-hopping across Nameless Creek yesterday.
Today, there’s time for only the image I’m afraid. Off to have a short session in town along with other SustainFloyd board members with Anthony Flaccavento and then  the book signing and speaking event with Anthony at Floyd Ecovillage tonight. Dinner (free) at 6 and program begins at 7.
Gotta go.
I’ll llk forward to it!
I love this genre of photos. We are envious of your excellent results with the twinkle off the leaf edges. If you would, please tell us the settings at which this shot was taken.
I could see this brilliance in the scene and it was really a detail I hoped would come out in the finished image. I think it must have been at the smallest aperture for this camera (F8) and was maybe mid-range telephoto (full is 600mm equivalent for a 35mm SLR.). Generally using the smallest aperture gives the highest chance of capturing “star-flare” from points of light, as I recall.
Sounds like a full life, Fred. Thanks so much for sharing the glimmers along the way!
