birdshooter > This photograph was taken in Yellowstone National Park on the Firehole River using a Nikon F100, Fuji Velvia slide film.  The exposure was f/16 @ 1/15th sec.  It has all the qualities of a great photograph; soft light at dusk, clouds to difuse the sunlight, water, and there is some action with the fly fisherman.  I actually waited until he got into the frame before taking the photo. You can see the foreground, middleground and background are all in focus.  The subject (fly fisherman) is in the right third lower corner and not in the middle of the frame.

By the way, this photo hangs in St Lukes Episcopal Hospital gallery of "best of show" winners.  It also won me $250 prize.

This photo was taken on the Firehole River in Yellowstone National Park at sunset in mid-September.  I had set up the camera and tripod to take a photo of the sunset on the river.  When the fly fisherman worked his way into the photo, I waited until he was at the "power point" and took this image.

I entered the photo in the St. Luke's Episcopal Hospitall, Texas Medical Center photography contest in 2001 and it chosen as "Best of Show".  In addition to the $150 prize, it hangs in the Debakey Heart Institute along with other years winners.
