Twilight colors at Waterfowl Lakes, Banff, with Mount Cephren left of centre as the main peak. This is a high dynamic range composite from 7 exposures from dark to light, taken with the Canon 5D MkII at ISO 100 and 14mm Rokinon lens at f/8. Stacked and processed in Photoshop HDR Pro and ACR 32-bit mode.
The stars of the northern sky circling in star trails over Bow Falls, on the Bow River, Banff, Alberta. This is a stack of 80 images, each 30 seconds at f/4 and ISO 800 with the 24mm lens and Canon 5D MkII. Stacked with Advanced Stacker Plus actions using Long Streak effect. The foreground is from one exposure. and includes a faint moonbow at right over the falls as well as two people who wandered in for a look and stood still long enough for a single exposure.
The supermoon of August 10, 2014 rising behind Mt. Rundle and Banff townsite, as shot from the Mt. Norquay viewpoint looking south over the valley. This is an HDR high dynamic range stack of 8 exposures to capture the great range in brightness from the sky around the Moon (the Moon itself is inevitably overexposed) to the dark ground and trees. I’ve turned up the HDR intensity a bit more than natural to bring out cloud structure but that does give the image an HDR look. I shot this at the end of a 700-frame time-lapse, with the 16-35mm lens and Canon 6D. HDR processed with Photomatix Pro.
