yosemite2023-19-min.jpgMy appreciation for all things Canon began years ago.  Now I am on a mission to take cameras to every one of our National Parks. From Yosemite to Acadia!ACADIA23-1-min.jpg

Great idea! Get a publisher and compile your photos into a coffee table book. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is within two hours. But, it's the most visited since it is close to a large percentage of the population. Traffic and lines become a problem. Good news and bad news is parks and other natural settings were "discovered" during the Covid epidemic. During that time, I fished a small trout stream and had dozen cars in the parking area and people almost everywhere. Before, I never saw a person all day.

These are beautiful images.  I had also aspirations of visiting the many US national parks but I am here in NZ and likely that won't happen, so I shall cheer on your efforts and hope to see more.
A TINY detail, if you have a still water line, it should always be dead horizontal, the second shot is down at the left by about 1-2deg, and I keep noticing it.


cheers, TREVOR

The mark of good photographer is less what they hold in their hand, it's more what they hold in their head;
"All the variety, all the charm, all the beauty of life is made up of light and shadow", Leo Tolstoy;

Thank you Trevor.  Sorry took me so long to respond.  I definitely appreciate your eye for detail on the water line and tend to agree with you.  I'll keep an eye out for it in my future compositions and processing. For your sake, if you can ever visit the parks I recommend you prioritize Yosemite, Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, Denali, and Glacier.  In addition I always recommend visiting before June and after August.  Less crowded.  Cheers!

Corrected!  Thank you again!
