Drips
Brown, Blue, and Red
2008-01-10
My style of photography seems to prefers a dominant color in the frame. I'm catching up with photos taken in the last month.

Caustic Drips: 1/1000s f/5.0 ISO400 200mm -0.3ev, Canon 30D, Canon EF 70-200 f2.8L IS, adjusted, cropped
These are drips on a gutter two stories up. I like how the metal crystals are visible and the light forms spikes as it passes through the water. If you turn it upside down it's almost impossible to figure out what it is because so little in the image is recognizable and the shading is unexpected.

Sunlit Gulls: 1/2500s f/5.0 ISO400 200mm -0.3ev, Canon 30D, Canon EF 70-200 f2.8L IS, adjusted
I adjusted this image of gulls flying overhead to keep the detail on the wing and other brightly-lit areas but did not attempt to brighten the rest of the image. That draws the eye to the bright parts and provides something to look at when it gets there.

Twisted Cloud: 1/125s f/3.5 ISO100 173mm, Canon 30D, Canon EF 70-200 f2.8L IS, unadjusted
I'm not sure what cause the odd twisted cloud to form, but its shadow was projected onto the underside of the cloud by the setting sun. The colors were very vivid and required no adjustment. The 30D had no problem focusing on the clouds, but I found later that the clouds were actually out of focus and the tree was in focus.
