As the second half of Double Visions Muskoka I also need to apologise for my lack of regular postings. As I enter a New Year with a new vision, my aim is to reach my goals of capturing even more Light in my compositions. Trying out new techniques and attempting to master them. The fun is in the trying. Also the fun is in the sharing in our workshops and or outings.

 Dreamscapes were so inspiring last Fall and with a very experienced photographer at my side, we so enjoyed the variety of image results from light intensity, colour variations and contrasting forms.

I have tried these same techniques with a Winter Landscape, and have found some serious challenges with settings. Dealing with more harsh light, it was harder to find a balance, but that surely will not stop me. Still tweaking the process.

Here are a few examples with using a variations of speed in lens movements, causing some delightful results. I found lens choice was a big factor in the end product, so posting settings will not always give you the same results.

To say we have been remiss in updating this blog is an understatement and we apologize.

2016 was a good year for photography for us with many trips to Algonquin Park as well as other locations to photograph wildlife and  landscapes as well as  to conduct workshops.

I made another successful trip to the Rockies in December where each day provided exciting light and lots of wildlife, especially bull elk.

Our most recent outing was a fun shoot with friends at Stubbs Falls in beautiful Arrowhead Provincial Park. An image from that shoot is attached.

We are planning on doing several workshops in Algonquin Park this year and will be posting dates.
