Mexico Beach: Steven Wilner sent us this evocative image made in Cabo
San Lucas, Mexico. He photographed with a Mamiya 7II with a 65mm lens
on Agfa Scala black and white slide film. He then scanned the image
on an Agfa Duoscan T2500 and toned the sky in an image-editing program.
No other image manipulation was done on this Epson 2200 print.

Laguna Shore:
William Prescott found the sunset at Laguna Beach, California, a bit
"uneventful," so he went on a search for other photo ops.
He found this great shot of water swirling around a rock and caught
it with his Canon EOS D30. His exposure was 2 seconds at f/14 with the
D30 set at ISO 100.

Malibu Light: This brilliant play of light was caught by Dr. Peter Sabolch
with a Nikon D100 and 28-70mm f/2.8D lens. Exposure was 1/750 sec at
f/14. Sabolch used an incandescent white balance setting to get this
great blue tone.

Artistic Touch: Kevin James
sent us a series of manipulated images that catch all the spirit and
romance of the sea. James wrote that he has been "collecting skies
for a long time" and that he works with a Nikon F3 or Nikon D100,
scans his images with a Nikon 4000ED, and does a series of manipulations
and composites for
each image.

of f/8 at 1/200 sec.

Sunset In Mendocino: The sunset in the West means photographers don't
have to get up so early to get sun over water pictures. But Elmer Dudik
caught a beauty anyway using his Nikon F4s and 24mm lens. He photographed
on Fujichrome Velvia at f/22 at 1/2 sec.

Pier At Long Beach, North Carolina: Sonny Poole caught all the mood of
a night at the shore with his Nikon D1X with a Nikkor 28-70mm f/3.5-4.5D
lens. Exposure was 6 seconds at f/22. Poole used a remote release with
his tripod-mounted camera and mirror lockup to avoid vibration.

Our Next Assignment
Fill Flash
Flash isn't just for
lighting up a dark room--it's a great tool to use outdoors
for taking care of heavy shadows on a bright, sunny day or, in this shot,
of adding a dash of color on an overcast, snowy one. Fill flash is more
automatic now than ever before and is both an enhancer and problem solver.
So send us your fill flash shots and show everyone how you use this great
technique. This photo was made with a Nikon D100 camera on a snowy day
in New Hampshire.
