Hotel Europe
The Flatiron Building in New York is 22 stories tall. The Hotel Europe is a similar shape but only five or so stories tall. It was raining just a little bit to keep the streets wet for the reflections.
Siwash Rock Star Trails Missing Clouds
This image is 30 second exposures stacked. Because the clouds are generally brighter than the stars, I had to mask out the clouds in each exposure. There are 100 frame here because my camera stops taking photos at 100 exposures if you just hold the button down.
Siwash Rock Making Star Trails
This is a 100 image, 30 seconds an image time lapse. I was planning on stacking them and lightening them to get star trails but the clouds flying by made that much harder than I anticipated.
Granville Street Bridge With Two Lanes
The Granville Street Bridge is 4 lanes wide, but with the snow and the construction on both ends, only two lanes were actually being used.
Barred Owl Side View
Getting under the canopy to get a photo was easy - getting a clear shot without branches in the foreground took a little bit of maneuvering. When I wasn't moving, the bird basically ignored me.
My camera is in the shop - this photo was taken with my wife's camera.
Barred Owl Looking At Me
Those claws (talons) really are for killing. Both time I saw the birds, I saw them fly to the ground to investigate things - I suspect look for small mammals.
