Photographer Seeks Unicorn

schmoo

Although only in the Seattle area for a couple of days, the infamous Bringer-of-Light Ron made sure we wasted no time on sleep for a chunk of it.



















Ron really does know how to raise the bar and find the right spot. It really was a magical morning with perfect conditions and light.

Maybe the title should actually be "Photographer Seeks Coffee." :lol3

Truly, a very cool fog series, Schmoo.

nice! puts Snoqualmie Falls and the old mill pond in a whole different light! i've been to both spots many times, but i confess, it's never really occurred to me to shoot those places in the fog. i may have to give it a try!

Thanks, guys. And Awais, good question but no! By the time there was enough light to shoot the ISO film I had, my hands were too numb to load the camera.

I did try before I took the orange fog shot but my fingers were so clumsy, I dropped the take-up spool into the grass. It got wet with dew and the roll I managed to load actually ripped inside the camera.

Lesson learned: Water + Film don't mix!

Very nice images. Love fog but unfortunately we never get it here in southern Utah.

GREAT series Stephanie. I really like these shots. The second shot looks so surreal and painterly. And also love #7.

Love it! clapclap

Heh - yeah I went on a crazed self-portrait spree a few months ago. The one you see is:

And another one where I am more sadistic

Those are fantastic! If you held cooking classes, I'd travel for that.
