I'm en route to Manitoulin Island for a few days of shooting up there. My van is finally in the shop getting the body work done on the back end, so I'm cruising in a stylish new rental car. In a couple of weeks I'll have the van back in top shape ready for the next leg of my trip!
If you're interested in a trip to the Georgian Bay area, here's a link to a website with lots of great info: http://www.visitgeorgianbay.com

Photo 2: That's me floating in Georgian Bay to shoot water level photos of the kayakers. A semi-dry suit kept me warm in the frigid waters and the lifejacket is for buoyancy to keep the camera above water. I shot handheld the 5DII, 17-40mm lens and a Singh-Ray LB warming polarizer.

Photo 4: Me on the overlook. Here's why I always carry a point & shoot camera... to get images of me in the field.

Photo 5: Mountain bikers stop for a break on the trail. EOS 5DII; 17-40mm lens; 580EX II flash for fill; Singh-Ray LB warming polarizer
Hi Ethan,
ReplyDeleteLooks like the 5DII is getting a good workout! I was looking forward to seeing more pics from this camera, thanks. Great shots - and opportunity. I'm sure Georgian Bay is a little cool right now - especially with the cooler summer. I'm sure you were glad to get out of the water and get warmed up again (maybe with a nice bottle of red?!?!).
Cheers,
Rob L.
Did you Drobo?
ReplyDeleteHey Craig, the Drobo arrived yesterday and I'm ordering a set of drives for it right now. Looks like a great storage system. Thanks for the tip about the deal!
