Don't Want to Know
You don't want to know how many frames it took for me to get this picture. I don't talk about it much but a lot of photography is problem-solving. And a lot of problem-solving comes from experiments. ( On Flickr : You should see how long it took me to figure out the raft thing. In "Albums", scroll all the way to the bottom, look for "Other Things That Float" .) Anyway, I thought this would be simple but it wasn't. It's been cold the last couple of days but the icicles form on the north side of the mountain. (That's the shady side, Dummy.) A slow shutter speed with a water drop just leaves you with a blurry spot. (Water is clear, Dummy.) Even 1/640th won't cure the blur. (Okay. I actually thought about that and I was surprised it didn't.) Old man Winter takes one more swipe at Alabama. It'll be in the 70's in a few days.
