Nature's Pinata

This old hornets nest was hanging in a roadside tree and just begged to be snapped. I used a Canon 50D with Sigma 18-250mm DC OS HSM lens. ISO-100, f/11 for 1/80 sec at 210mm focal length.

Rocky Mountain front west of Choteau, MT

For this shot of the Rocky Mountains I used my Canon 50D with Sigma 18-250mm DC OS HSM lens. ISO-100, f/11 for 1/125 sec at a focal length of 43mm. I also used a circular polarizer to enhance the clouds and sky and left the white balance set at daylight setting.

Black Eagle dam frozen over

This was a neat shot opportunity at Black Eagle dam. Ice builds up in the winter and makes a really cool effect. I took this with Canon 50D and Sigma 18-250mm DC OS HSM lens. ISO-200, f/11 for 1/400 sec at 210mm focal length.
