Tatamagouche '08 - Sunrise and Moonglow

The sunrise was spectacular this year on Saturday morning.  It was cool and crisp but the light was warm and the waning crescent moon was still bright.

Tatamagouche '08 - Starry Night

This year marked my 5th year as part of the leadership team of the Ways of Seeing, Photography for the Artist Within Us event.  As always, it was a great event with a fantastic group of people.

After the Friday night session was finished, picking up from where we left off last year, I set out with my friends Shannon & Lawrence with our cameras to soak in the clear autumn sky.  It was a cool, crisp evening sky filled with stars.  We all made some long exposures of the night sky.

Later we turned the cameras on ourselves and had a little fun with flashlights and shadows.

Tatamagouche: Sunrise Serenity

On the Saturday morning of the Ways of Seeing event the group goes out for a dawn photo shoot. The sunrise this year was particularly beautiful.

I also tried a few HDR exposures during this photo shoot, an explaination of the technique and some results of that in an upcoming post.

On another note, I did actually sleep in between moonlight madness and sunrise serenity:)
