Mother and children

I rowed down to the shallow end of the cove and found Mama with her five cygnets. She allowed me get close, and to follow her from place to place as her babies eat their veggies.

Fireworks

As if on cue, Mother Nature provided a spectacular show of fireworks of her own last night. Kathy and I watched the sky turned to fire. And if that wasn't enough, the Swan family glided silently by in the fading last light. Wow!!! Happy 4th of July!!!

Do you remember your Greek mythology????

Here Charon ferries a boatload of deceased mortals across the River Styx into Hades during Waterfire, Providence.

Setting the camera at 0.8 sec at F/32 produced this blur. ISO 400. Tweaked a bit in Lightroom.

Sparks, Waterfire Safari, Providence

Here's one with an extended exposure... ISO 1000, 1 and 1/2 seconds at f/9. I like to switch from wide open to stop down using aperture preferred so I get one relatively fast shutter speed, and one slow one. The fast shutter speed shot here was a throwaway. The extended exposure rendering of the sparks make this one kind of interesting.

Noise at ISO 800

NOISE...Sometimes I hate it, sometimes I love it. I think it works pretty well here, turning the (4 seconds at f/7, hand-held) over saturated, noisy exposure into a George Seurat-like pointillistic masterpiece. Hoho... I wish.

This Waterfire safari has given me many images I never would have taken, and plenty of stuff to work on in the days to come. I've received some good suggestions from a few of you. I'll share condensed group comments on the our Waterfire Safari in another email. I think there's lots of room for improvement.

BTW, I am sending selected images to Waterfire HQ very soon. Get yours posted please.
