Manhattan Buildings Standing on the street, looking straight up into the Manhattan sky. This is one approach to eliminating the clutter (signs, power lines, traffic lights ...) of the city. 17mm f/11.0 1/80s ISO 100 |

Rows of Clouds Over Acadia Rows of clouds let rays of light through, causing small areas of brightness in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Acadia National Park. 17mm f/11.0 1/200s ISO 100 |

Dog, Ferns and a Mushroom A Golden Retriever sits among the green ferns and an orange mushroom. Did you know that getting a dog to sit still for a 1/8 second exposure is not easy? 17mm f/8.0 1/8s ISO 1600 |

Kid at Work Though there are a lot of clues as to what specifically this kid is working on, I couldn't tell you what it is. The 1/13 second exposure is too long for most people shots. This girl is being very still by request. 17mm f/8.0 1/13s ISO 400 |

Horseshoe Bend, Grand Canyon Horseshoe Bend, Grand Canyon was one of the top photography locations on my Grand Tour list. This shot was taken in late morning - when the sun lights the Colorado River in the canyon below. 17mm f/11.0 1/125s ISO 100 |

Skyscrapers and Reflection A skyscraper reflects in the windows of another. 17mm f/10.0 1/100s ISO 100 |

Portrait in a Field Using the maximum tilt setting for this tilt-shift lens leaves the subject sharp and the surroundings strongly blurred - very strongly blurred for a 17mm f/4 image. The viewer's eye will be drawn to the in-focus subject. 17mm f/4.0 1/60s ISO 100 |

Swiftcurrent Creek Sunrise, Glacier NP This location along Swiftcurrent Creek is just downstream (east) of the bridge to the Lodge at Swiftcurrent Lake. The low cut in the mountains at this location allows sight of the early AM sky lighting up. 17mm f/11.0 1s ISO 100 |

Girl by a Fence While this girl is not tall, using the maximum lens shift setting gives her the appearance of being so. 17mm f/8.0 .6s ISO 100 |

Natural History Museum, New York City The neck and relatively tiny head of a dinosaur reach up into the ornate ceiling of the Natural History Museum's main entrance in New York City. 17mm f/4.0 1/60s ISO 800 |

Pink Hibiscus Flowers This pair of pink hibicus flowers demonstrate the close-up capabilities of the Canon TS-E 17mm f/4 L Lens. 17mm f/11.0 1/80s ISO 100 |

Pink Tube Picture The full lens tilt settings of the TS-E 17mm lens were used for this shot. Significant background blur is one of the results. 17mm f/5.6 1/60s ISO 200 |

Ultrawide Angle St Mary Lake Sunrise With 30 second exposures, it was not hard to be capturing this amazing St Mary Lake, Glacier National Park scene simultaneously with two camera setups - doubling my take-home. The Canon TS-E 17mm f/4 L Lens was used for capturing the ultrawide angle of view while a Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM Lens captured tighter framing. 17mm f/11.0 30s ISO 100 |

Round Rocks and Otter Point A slight amount of lens tilt was used for this shot - to keep the close foreground and distant background all in focus. 17mm f/11.0 1/60s ISO 100 |

Diving Board, Pool and House Maximum perspective distortion over-correction (lens shift) results in an odd looking house. 17mm f/8.0 1/8s ISO 100 |

World Art and Skyscraper Maximum perspective distortion correction (lens shift) was used for this photo. Obviously, the TS-E 17 L cannot make the lines of a building this tall straight up and down when positioned at ground level. 17mm f/8.0 1/80s ISO 100 |

Towering Pines and Cathedral Rocks, Yosemite National Park Pointing an ultra-wide angle lens upward will emphasize the diminishing line effect - causing these tall pines to slope noticeably inward while framing the large granite alls of Cathedral Rocks. I kept a clean, grass-only bottom edge of the frame and similarly, only sky and clouds intersect the top of the frame. 17mm f/11.0 1/80s ISO 100 |

Horseshoe Bend Panorama This is a cropped two-shot panorama of Horseshoe Bend, Grand Canyon taken using the shift feature of the Canon TS-E 17mm f/4 L Lens in horizontal orientation. 17mm f/11.0 1/125s ISO 100 |

Yosemite National Park Ferns Bright green ferns stand out in this burned-out forest in Yosemite National Park. The lighting was not favorable for grand landscape photography this morning, but the very overcast sky was ideal for photographing the forest floor. 17mm f/11.0 1/4s ISO 100 |

Reflection of Cathedral Rocks, Yosemite National Park Late May, after an unusually high snow pack, is not a good time to shoot reflections at Yosemite National Park. The Merced River was definitely not mirror-like. I was able to find this pond to get a reflective shot of the granite walls of Cathedral Rocks. 17mm f/11.0 1/125s ISO 100 |

Nevada Falls as Seen From Glacier Point Driving to Glacier Point is a much easier way to see Nevada Falls than hiking Mist Trail to do the same. However, the latter will give you much more exercise. 17mm f/11.0 1/80s ISO 100 |

Many Glacier Sunrise The Many Glacier Hotel can be seen just above the foreground rock in this image. Early morning light reaches the peak of Mt Grinnell long before reaching the Swiftcurrent Lake and valleys below. 17mm f/11.0 .4s ISO 100 |

Kekaha Kai State Park Sunset The road, if it even qualifies for that title, leading to this beach in Kekaha Kai State Park (Big Island, HI) is very rough. A 4x4 is recommended. The rough ride is very adequately rewarded with a beautiful beach and an unobstructed view of the setting sun. 17mm f/8.0 1/10s ISO 100 |
