Re: PESO - Wissahickon Bridge
Actually, Eric, the lens I considered buying to replace the 16-45 was the 17-70--pretty much the same size and weight, good optics, and a longer reach. The continuing reports of SDM failures have deterred me.

Re: PESO - Blue Snowflake
Interesting observation - in a sense the droplets (rime) could be acting like additional lens elements and altering the refraction of light. I am hoping to work with the yellow filter a little more and if this turns up again I'll turn off the mufti white balance to see if that affects it. I have never seen this with red filters in the past. Mark On 1/28/2015 10:52 PM, Igor PDML-StR wrote: Mark, Your guess about the auto-WB compensating for the yellow light is very plausible. I've seen this type of things happening. If that's not the case, - I wonder if it is somehow a result of optical interference on the thickness of some layer(s) of the flake. It looks like the blue color is where there are some sort of droplets on the snowflake. I wonder if it's the interference on the two surfaces of those droplets. Nice image, as usual.

This is not a 'best of' gallery - it's more of a travelogue, so there will be some (lots?) of images that are not going to win any prizes. There are quite a few images - 75 in total - and this is only Part 1! Of course, you don't have to look at all (or any) of them, but I thought some of you might be interested to see where we went and what we saw. There's a map of the route at the start of the gallery. Part 1 covers Los Angeles to northern Colorado via Nevada, Arizona, Utah (briefly) and New Mexico. http://lyons-ryan.org/roadtripUSA/index.html Very much enjoyed looking through them. Two I really liked were 'View from the observation car' 'Spider Rock' which capture both the atmosphere - and the vast open landscapes of the areas. Thanks, Malcolm.
