'sperimenting

Rented an 11-16mm for my D90.  We actually had a sunny day yesterday so I scooted out to Rattlesnake Lake early in the morning to see what mischief I could get up to with the lens.  I think I am going to like it!

I was right in front of this stump--about a foot away...

I love a lens that lets me get down to water level and yet still get me the scope of the background.

While I was out and about and enjoying the sun and dry weather, I went over to The Falls to see what was going on.  I was early enough in the morning that the SUN (hey, sun in Seattle is a big deal) was hitting the mist and creating a mistbow.  I've seen them in the late afternoon in front of the falls, but never at the far end of the falls.  I count myself lucky!  Again, that trusty little super-wide let me get the entire mistbow as well as some of the river down below.

It's been rainy....

I would love something like this in my home, but honestly..can you say "dust collector"?

The things you see sometimes.....
