Last Day Sunrise Grander
The radar showed clouds and in just the right places so I knew exactly where I wanted to take the gang for their last sunrise shoot. That is one of the big advantages of the Eastern Sierra Adv, I do know my backyard pretty good for just such occasions.

Right now it's just one giant mirror reflecting the incredible beauty of the Sierra crest.

Back to the Ol Homestead
With the great puffies and gorgeous July light, a trip to Bodie was a must. Bodie is not new to me, in fact, my family has been going to Bodie since 1900. So it was with great delight we took the group there to share not only it's photographic wealth, but also it's colorful history. [swf]http://www.moosepeterson.com/swf_imgs/_BMP3858BW.swf, 585, 473 [/swf] [swf]http://www.moosepeterson.com/swf_imgs/_BMP3890BW.swf, 585, 473 [/swf] There are many, many ways to approach photographing Bodie. My approach this time was to have corrected buildings in B&W. The first obstacle most fret over are all the people that walk through your photo. There are two ways of ...
Quick Trip to Monumnet Valley
We've got a great group of folks with us here on the Eastside so thought we'd take them on a quick trip to Monument Valley. In miniature that is. [swf]http://www.moosepeterson.com/swf_imgs/_BMP6104.swf, 585, 473 [/swf] OK, we didn't drive to Utah overnight, rather we left at 4AM and headed to a favorite locale. After doing some star trails, we headed down and got on our knees. We got on our knees, elbows and stuck our butts in the air as we photographed these very delicate and fragile sand tufas. [swf]http://www.moosepeterson.com/swf_imgs/_BMP6145BW.swf, 404, 600 [/swf] OK, so getting down on your knees is part of making the photo, ...
In the Sierra, Always Have Your Camera!
We headed down to the airport to pick up Stephanie so like always, I grabbed the camera as we left the house. Looking out the window told me what lens I should have attached. [swf]http://www.moosepeterson.com/swf_imgs/_BMP4863.swf, 585, 473 [/swf] It's the summer and the pattern has turned so we get our very dramatic afternoons. The thunderheads started to form early all around Mammoth but not over Mammoth. I knew heading to the flats, they would be off in the distance and not overhead which is why I selected the one lens I took along. [swf]http://www.moosepeterson.com/swf_imgs/_BMP4864.swf, 585, 473 [/swf] The clicks were easy, I parked in ...
