45 - Coral Castle

Canon 5DmkII, 16-35mm at 16mm, iso400, f/22, -2,0,+2, +CPL

Today I just wanted to go some where new so off I went to The Coral Castle. This place is amazing and a must see if your in the area. It was built by one man working alone named Ed Leedskalnin, between 1920 and 1940. What's remarkable is ED was only 5 feet tall and weighted 100 pounds. The work was done with hand tools made from old car parts.

96 - Titan - Largest Moon of Saturn

Image
Canon 5DmkII, 16-35mm at 16mm, iso100, 1, 4 & 15 sec at f/13.0, Titan is the largest moon of Saturn, the only moon known to have a dense atmosphere and the only object other than Earth for which clear evidence of stable bodies of surface liquid has been found. Titan is the sixth ellipsoidal moon from Saturn. Frequently described as a planet-like moon, Titan has a diameter roughly 50% larger than Earth's moon and is 80% more massive. It is the 2nd largest moon in the Solar System, after Jupiter's moon Ganymede, and it is larger by volume than the smallest planet, Mercury, although only half as massive. Titan was the first known moon of Saturn, discovered in 1655 by the Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens. Titan is primarily composed of water ice and rocky material.

85 - A Creative Path

Canon 5DmkII, 16-35mm at 16mm, iso100, 1/6 sec at f/9.5, +CPL I feel like I'm in a creative rut maybe it's the rain, pretty much straight for 3 weeks. I want to think that's the reason but it's probably not. It is to easy to go back to the same place with the same equipment and shoot the same shot with a different sky. I don't want a break I want an idea. So I'll go searching... I know this is a universal phenomena, any comments would be appreciated.
