COLD.
So cold in fact that my car was one of the few to start and the ABS sensors were frozen. So another delay to my December trip to Yellowstone National Park. I have another week and change to make it down for a day (so I am hopeful.)
I did make it out last night for some shooting with the 400/2.8 and can say that the lens is a great tool at 400 & 560mm; but not up to par as an 800mm. It is easy to maneuver from a bean bag in the car. And with the replacement foot it is also a dream to handle on a Wimberley SideKick.
Here are some images from the afternoon.
- Dave M Shumway
- Dave is the Director of Communications for Volunteers of America - Northern Rockies. Raised in the western suburbs of Chicago, IL, he moved to the west when he was 20-years-old, and he “is never looking back.” Dave has two passions, one for the outdoors and one for photography. To this end, he spends much of his time in the ecosystems in and around Yellowstone National Park. This gives him a perspective on the wildlife and the ecosystem that few have. Dave is also an adjunct faculty member at Rocky Mountain College in Billings, MT, where he teaches middle- and upper-division photography courses. Working as photographer, Dave’s assignments include everything from commercial work and journalism, to wildlife and landscape photography. His extensive time in the field shows through in online galleries which are loaded with images of the fragile places he travels to. His work can be viewed at www.DaveShumway.com.
