Away to Death Valley

I’m hoping for the usual pleasant weather in Death Valley (80 - 85°F) and also some thunderstorms thrown in for good measure. See the Feb 15 entry for more. I’ll be shooting the 12.1MP Nikon D3 and 21.1MP Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III with all the Zeiss ZF Lenses as well as the Coastal Optics 60/4 APO UV-VIS-IR.

Any Pro Reviews purchased made before Saturday morning March 1 will be delivered prior to my departure, otherwise upon my return (details).

The image below is one of my favorite Death Valley images, taken in Titus Canyon of two horses (one grazing and one running). I actively look for such images, waiting for them to appear out of patterns, in this case white and blue marble. And sometimes I make them without seeing them first, knowing there is a latent form, but waiting for it to “develop”.
