Bidwell Park and the fundraiser...

The 'Photos For Haiti' fundraiser is up and running and can be checked out via Facebook HERE.

I did some shooting today. I wanted to try out the new tripod and was really curious about the water levels in the area, so I ran out to Bidwell Park and out by River Road to check out the scene...didn't get too much, but then I only shot for a couple of hours.

With these first two I used a circular polarizer to really maximize the reflections in the pond...if you've been here, you know how brown and gross it is =)



Oh, also ran into these guys in Bidwell:







The creek in Bidwell was pretty high but at least a foot away from breaking out of its banks, so not very interesting. It's supposed to rain for another week so I'll check back in later...I have a couple of shots in mind if it does decide to flood. I saw that it was shaping up to be a nice sunset, so I hurried out to River Rd to see what I could see...not ideal by any stretch of the imagination for a sunset shot, but I did find this:



More shooting to come in the next couple of days =) In the meantime, please, please check out the fundraiser!
