 High Road Gallery Ohio  High Road Gallery Ohio  Darby Macro Fall Color I’m finally getting back out and shooting after taking care of a bulged disc in my lower back. I’m still finding plenty of fall color in the woodlands well beyond what many consider peak season for colors. I found many unique subjects at Battelle Darby Creek Metro Park. I modified the light with a 20″ diffuser and a 12″ soft gold reflector. Thanks for viewing! – Vince Nikon D7000 Sigma 150mm Macro F25 @ .8sec iso 100 I just returned from a couple days at Cuyahoga Valley National Park in Ohio. Here are a few images showcasing the color and detail of the park. Thanks for viewing! – Vince  Blue Hen Falls - CVNP  Cuyahoga Valley Dogwood 
    My search for early morning light was interrupted by a pop up thunderstorm and needless to say I decided to play it safe and avoid being a target with my aluminum alloy tripod! Yes carbon fiber is on the list but it’s just not in the budget right now! – Besides, I don’t even notice the weight anymore! Instead of packing it in and heading home I decided to wait out the weather and work with less than ideal conditions. The air was starting to move my macro subjects around the prairie but the lingering clouds provided the cover I needed for a little diffused light. I decided to focus on the overlooked details as I’m becoming a little bored with summer prairie blooms and anxiously awaiting the colors of autumn. I happened upon this patch of prairie drop seed? and just worked the backgrounds and different angles of light not knowing what I’d come home with from this morning. I opened up my aperture in order to isolate the seed heads and give a fast shutter speed to overcome the slight breeze. This small series was taken all within a 10 square foot area at Battelle Darby Creek Metro Park, Galloway OH. Thanks for viewing! – Vince  Darby Creek Ohio This little leaf was very ordinary, just sitting in a puddle on a trail. I almost walked by but decided to stay to study the light, composition, and reflecting colors. I ended up staying for about 30 minutes. I just couldn’t get enough of the tree canopy and blue sky reflecting down into this ordinary world. Only after several mosquito bites and many weird looks from trail runners did I decide to call it a morning. Take your time, walk slow, and keep your eyes and mind open to what you might see. Happy shooting! – Vince Nikon D7000 Sigma 150mm macro F22 @ 5 sec iso 400 Nik Software – Color Efex |
