I don't think he drinks this stuff mostly Cabernet but I bet he would try the Lafite.

Here's one from a different angle, down in the valley in a foggy creek, after sunrise. This is near the Fontana Dam off of US 28, known as "Moonshiner" hehe. A beautiful, scenic road.

Congrats. It's about time.

I'll never figure out Explore. They are often not the best images, but your certainly is.

Itsed65 · 08-19-2015, 05:32 PM

Dave, you mean you don't find pictures of little dressed up Legos that interesting?

Well done Dmitriy. explore does bring thousands of eyeballs to your work.

ddk632 · 08-19-2015, 05:51 PM

Thanks guys, I'm definitely stoked!

Here's another similar shot which I like much better actually ... I think this was my "the one" from this whole trip.

I know this is supposed to be a peaceful shot (and it's absolutely gorgeous man!) however I would LOVE to shred this glass on a wakeboard!!!!!!! Can you IMAGINE

Great series, David. Love the misty look.

Setting up the Shot by lennycarl08, on Flickr

I was shooting one of our annual corporate client golf outings at Castle Pines Golf Club, a little South of Denver. CPGC is known for their hummingbirds, which they attract with both feeders and flowers. Just outside the 19th hole were some of the flowers, full of hummers, so I spent a few minutes shooting:

I used my new 50mp Canon 5DsR, combined with my 500/f4, plus the 1.4x TC and got in near the minimum focus distance. After a small crop to get proportions right, the images is still 6846x4564p. That's a boon for printing or when Getty sells a full-resolution copy, where they actually pay by the pixel.

^^^Way cool shot, DC.

Amazing that just 30 minutes away it was 106 degrees, and here it was about 69 thanks to the fog rolling in. It was a nice reprieve from the oppressive heat I had dealt with all weekend.

Wow, now that's a one in a million shot. Was there a window between you two?

The only glass was my 500mm lens and 1.4x TC.

This was at a private club, where I was shooting a golf outing. I'd love to go back to spend an hour with the hummers, instead of just 10-minutes. I'd get even "luckier" I'd bet.

5D3 with 300mm and 2X TC.

The overcast almost makes it look like a studio shot with backdrop
