  • Kyuquot Seaweed

I took this with my trusty 3D World with Provia F probably at f11 or f16 which is my standard f stop.  I always use a tripod so exposure was 1/8 or so since it was early in the morning.  I have been shooting seaweed at low tide for about three years now and it always fascinates me the saturation, colour and abstract design.  Kyuquot is a very small village on the west coast of Vancouver Island in BC where I spend my summers.  There are no road and everyone only uses boats to get around as we live on 11 different islands.  There is a post office, general store, clinic, hotel, small restaurant, and boat through espresso bar… what more do you want?

  • Kyuquot Starfish

I also took this with my  3D World with Provia F probably at f11 or f16  at 1/15 or so.  I found this little starfish at low tide and found it arms reminded me of Andre Kertesz, Satiric Dancer.

  • Treehouse

I took this with my Rolleidoscop with Provia F not sure of the exposure.  This is a treehouse room in a unique hotel that is in the trees in Southern Oregon, kind of like Swiss Family Robinson.  The place is called Out’n’About Treehouse Treesort for those interested in an interesting adventure:)

  • Kyuquot Fog

3D World with Provia F probably at f8 or f11,  exposure was 1/2 as it was dark.  I love when the fog rolls in and it is best to stay put and photograp.
