Christmas Lights

While setting up our Photo Clubs annual Christmas Photo Shoot I was testing the flash sync to make sure it worked ok. I had to make a few adjustments and when I looked at my test shots this one caught my eye. For some reason the camera data does not show the shutter speed but I would guess it was a couple of seconds, F11 at ISO 200, definitely not tripod mounted.

Bridge below Yosemite Falls

I am not 100% sure what intrigued me to photograph the bridge. It reminded me of a picture that another member of our Photo Club took around Mariposa, CA where she photographed an old building surrounded by branches and leaves. I think for me it just was the right amount of leaves that did not fully cover the bridge and the fall color that determine the mood of the image. I always wonder what kind of thoughts go into a composition and what kind of response an image creates. I just hope you enjoy this one. Camera setting: 28mm, f18, 0.6 sec., ISO 100 tripod mounted.
