A hike through the fog

[Mistwalker]

I am going out to take some pics in the morning, this got me to thinking about a hike I took last winter and I thought I would post the pictures from that hike..., this is how I earned my "nick-name"

I went up on top of Walden's Ridge and went hiking, along the way I passed by Davis pond and couldn't resist these shots.

I found someones bush fishing pole

one lone cattail on the edge of the pond

Here I found the remains of an unfortunate turtle...., wonder what ate it.

Great photos. I particularly like #19. I hope you don't mind me saying I don't like the date stamps.

 

[Mistwalker]

Please explain about the date stamps...., and ummm there are only 12 pics

I think he's referring to the file numbers which you can read by right clicking and going to the properties tag.

As for the date stamps, these are a personal choice I suppose, I think they spoil some pictures but some people like them because they make it easy to tell when they were taken.

I usually just rely on the file metadata that is recorded by the camera which contains the date but is invisible on the picture.

Good pictures though, looks like a nice trip out.

Oh..., in that case #19 is one of my favorites too.

I have thought about taking the date stamp off of some, I need to see if there is a way I can copy some onto the camera's file folder and save some both with and without the date stamp as I mainly use these pics to try to chronicle changes in the area and have only recently started taking pics with a more artistic purpose.

Thank you, I love that area, I have some sunset pics from there somewhere.....,I think on a travel drive..., I'm still looking. One night I camped out there and was walked up on by five does and a buck headed to get a drink..., but I hadn't set the camera to silent yet and when it beeped they all scattered too quickly to catch.

Wayland has interpreted the detail of my post correctly. By #19 I was referring to the sixth photo you posted.

Basically, as I replied in the PM, I think the date stamp draws the eye to the date stamp, rather than the intended focus of the photograph.

It was only a point of view though. If you use the date stamp for your chronological records that's absolutely fine. In fact, they're your photos, you can do what you like! I was just posting an opinion.

lovely fotos. I too favor the #19

 

[Mistwalker]

Thank you, I spend a lot of time there..., whenever I get the chance. Here is a picture from the same angle as that #19 but at sunset on a clear Winter day.

This is from the same series shot from a slightly different angle. Where the sun is setting is where the deer come to drink every night there are always tracks there

It was very cold that night, it was when I was out gathering fatwood and taking Winter pictures. This is the fire I built to warm up by.

and this is how it looked with the camera set on night time. The wind was really up and the windchill was around -32 c

these are some of the tracks I've found around the pond.....

This is the view looking back from the other side taken on a rainy Summer afternoon
