Black River In Winter

[Ron Kruger]

From a mountains side overlooking the Black River (one I guide on) during winter. K10D, 35mm macro braced against tree, f-7.1, 200 sec

35 looks like a landscape lens after all;     nice place to guide in too,  ron.

This is the best I can get out of it, David, and even here the horizon is a little soft. For anything else, however, the 35mm is stellar.

looks pretty good though,  ron,    do you put your little red canoe on this river?   any fish in it?     dave

[Ron Kruger]

Well, it is pretty good, David, but other lenses are better when you want everything from your feet to infinity in focus.
And yes, this is one of the rivers where I guide smallmouth fishermen. It's also one of the clearest fresh water rivers in the nation and where I do most of my underwater photography.

i like how the blue deepens in color though as you look farther down the river,   in this shot.      dave
