I had to end our blog sessions on something from my home. In December I will be going home and enjoying these beautiful beaches.

I saw this and was just curious as to if this was a good picture or not. I mean I think that it looks cool however I didn't know if there was something that could be done to fix the slight blur.

I think that this picture is sooooo pretty. I want to go visit. I wonder if this actually looks like this. If it is sign me up!

I hope that I can get a picture like this one day. I think moose are awesome looking and I hope that I am fortunate to catch one one camera.

I found this picture and right off the bat I noticed the red. I mean come on. How couldn't you notice all the reds. This picture reminds me of home and that is also why I chose this picture. I love sunsets and this exceptionally  beautiful because the author captured a tone of elements. I noticed the foreground and mid ground back ground. Just love it!

I chose I chose this picture because it made me excited for winter and I hope that our winter looks like this love the contrasts of the whites and the black.

I took this picture last fall on campus and I love the colors and I cannot wait for fall to get here. I miss the colors and since we are talking about all the use of color in the picture. I cant wait to learn to edit!

1: This picture I couldn't really see because it couldn't load but like I say in a lot of the other pictures that he picked a great setting in the shutter speed because I can't see any blur. Also the telephoto lens that was used was great. Looks like the picture was frozen in time.

2: In this the photographer really tied into the fact that people like the colors red and in this case yellow. The bright colors pop out right when you look at it. I did notice that the shutter speed is fairly slow because the water is blurred. Love it!

3: I can't quite figure this one out because I want to say that the exposure is very high but I feel like the photographer used a polarizer because the rocks are very black whereas the streaks of water are very white!

4: Honestly the first thing I thought when I saw this was that this was photo shopped. It just looks fake to me. the colors don't fit right. Just looks fishy!

5: Correct me if I am wrong but I believe the photographer had a high IOS in the taking of this picture. The fact that the snow is so white all the pop colors really stand out. Like the first thing I noticed was the blue. Then my eyes shifted to the yellow rings. And now I really want to know where this is!

6: This has the use of reds that really caught my eye. I feel that the author had his camera set with a high shutter speed because that small of a creature had to have moves that branch and I doubt it stood still very long. Also I can't think of the correct term but he had to have had a telephoto lens to get that close.

7: The first thing I thought was he needed a higher shutter speed. But I got to thinking that maybe he had to compensate because maybe he didn't have a telephoto lens on him and he had to give up some shutter speed to the zoom or even to the exposure.

8: All I can say is I want to be able to catch color like this photographer did. I want to know how he got the greens and reds to stand out soo clearly at that time of day, without the picture itself being too bright.

9: Well he obviously used a really really expensive telephoto lens. He had to have a fairly high shutter speed and ISO in order to capture the bird in flight and to capture the white in the birds color. Awesome.

10: I am in love. I want to say he used a telephoto lens however based on the angle it looks like he literally just stood right next to the bear and shot this. he had to have had a fairly high shutter speed in order to keep the bear from blurring when he popped up.
