Fish Walk 2 – A Fall Photo Hike with a Fisheye Lens – Part 1

In the fall of 2024, I began to experiment with using a 16mm fisheye lens for forest photography. This blog series contains images from my second woodland hike with this lens.

The Embrace

The old, mossy log in this image gets its curved shape from the fisheye lens, making it appear to be embracing the small tree with its yellow leaves of fall.

Indiana Fall 2023, Part 27 – Abstract Images (Continued)

This is the second part of my post on abstract images of fall trees via ICM (intentional camera movement).

Fall Trees Abstract, Indiana, November 2, 2023
Fall Trees Abstract, Indiana, November 2, 2023

These two images (above and below) are the same but with different editing applied.  These are not realistic natural images, so I’m not bothered by artistic renditions via edits.

The same scene can yield very different results, depending upon the camera movement.

Autumn Abstract 2, Indiana, November 2, 2023
Autumn Woods Abstract 5, Indiana, November 2, 2023
Autumn Woods Abstract 6, Indiana, November 2, 2023

I must admit that I had fun creating these abstracts.  Maybe I should do this more often and I like the vertical motion abstracts of trees much more than those created via horizontal camera movement.

Until next time,

Indiana Fall 2023, Part 26 – Abstract Images

One day at the cabin, I went out into the area around the cabin to shoot some scenes that had caught my eye due to the lighting on another day.  However, today the light was not the same and the shots of those previously interesting looking scenes were not interesting.

My stroll around the area eventually led me into a wooded area behind the cabin and I still was not getting any interesting images.  So I decided to try getting abstract images via intentional camera movement (ICM), a technique that I seldom use.

Autumn Woods Abstract 3, Indiana, November 2, 2023

Usually, the most interesting images can be obtained via vertical camera movement with trees as the subjects.  But I did manage to get a few interesting images by panning the camera horizontally.

I think the monochrome version works best for this horizontal panning motion.
