It’s Tuesday and that calls for a Two-fer (yes, two posts today). This was an image I took over Thanksgiving. Shot at ISO 800 with a Canon 20D.

According to Merriam-Webster’s Online Dictionary “Desire” means to “long or hope for”. That is exactly what I was feeling when I stopped in my local Shutterbug store and talked with the Canon Rep there who was showcasing the new Canon 5D Mark II. Holding this new camera in my hands completely defined desire for me. I’m sure the look on my face was the same as a puppy staring at a dog bone with drool running out of his mouth. I’m pretty sure I wasn’t drooling but I came close. I’m not going to rehash the technical specs on this camera, like the 21MP sensor or the HD video capability, but I will say that it sure felt good in my hands. What didn’t sound so good was the Canon Rep telling me it was about a 6 month wait before he got any more in this area. Sounds like the waiting list is quite long as people who want a smaller frame camera with the capabilities of a 1D series come out of the woodwork to get their hands on it. I guess my “desire” will have to wait a bit longer.
The second in a series of shots from the Aufderheide Memorial Drive in Oregon. This one is of French Pete Creek. We followed along the French Pete Trail #3311 into the Three Sisters Wilderness.
As promised in my previous post I am putting up an image taken yesterday from my Aufderheide Memorial Drive photo shoot. This one was taken at French Pete Creek. Come back tomorrow for another image from this shoot.
Spent a great day out shooting photos along the Aufderheide Memorial Drive, specifically French Pete Creek (It is said that this stream, which is an important tributary of the South Fork McKenzie River, was named for French Pete, an early day sheepherder, who ranged his band in this area) and Roaring River. While most of the leaves are gone the creeks and rivers were still beautiful to shoot. Over the next several days I’ll be posting a few photos as I go through a process them. Hopefully there will be at least a few good ones to share.
