Gordon:
An update to comments on your post re: ancient 4 corners impact crater....
http://www.geoledgers.com/Impacts.html
This is a linkk to a page that proposes a name for the structure, the “Navajo” impact structure. Although this is still theoretical in my view, and does not qualify as confirmation in the scientific sense, it is, in my opinion, a move in the right direction. - Robert Wilkinson (formerly commenting as Mystic Coyote)

A really nice work in your galleries. Five yrs of travel and photography must have been better than great. Would have loved to see what you could do with the mountains of Tenn, NC and Va/W Va.

I've seen the four corners crater on the weather segments on the news mostly every day. I'm glad I found your web site I think geologists need to get more involved and make a big issue about this crater. It might explain the petrified forest in Arizona and why there is a forest line that can be seen by satellite. The forest line, is what I call the differences between dry bare areas with no forest and all of a sudden you have a flourishing forest with rich soil. Research of different land masses is needed to explain the lack of forest in areas that are equivalent in elevation and rainfall. I'm from Crownpoint, NM, I can see the La Plata mountains from my back yard and its about 100 miles between locations. Its like looking into apart of the crater that ounce long ago had a different land feature with a thick forest flourishing clear across to the La Platas. The crater is so obvious and I can't believe nothing has been said on the discovery channel or National Geographics. I would appreciate some feed back on this topic and thanks again for pointing out this crater for people to see.

Sincerely ,

isleman02-May-2010 13:36
Absoluely love your work! At the age of 50, I would love to be able to develope a fraction of your eye and abililty to capture such amazing shots. I am amazed at the sharpness, clarity, and brilliant colors of all of your shots. What, if any, post processing do you use? This is an area I am seriously lacking in. Currently using a Nikon D70s w/ 18-200mm zoom. Again, GREAT WORK! Saving your galleries as one of my favorites.
Guest 26-Apr-2010 03:49
Gorgeous galleries! Your name sounds familiar, I think we met when I first joined Pbase as Art2license, other account. It seemed like you had a nice photo of a lamb and we talked about beliefs. If not, I know you were one of my favorite artists.

Guest 09-Jan-2010 13:09
Hi Gordon so sorry to hear about your recent visa problems - from the look of your most recent photos I can tell why you spend the winter south of the border. However your utter dedication in all weather to photography is an inspiration to us all. Yours truly is a wonderfull obsession and long may it continue and be published on pbase for us mere mortals to appreciate.

I have to tell you that I discovered your pbase site a few years ago and I just love your photos. You have really been an inspiration to me as a photographer. It is such a treat to follow you in your travels and I envy you that. Unfortunately my husband and I have to work right now, but we have a new camper and are looking forward to future trips, especially to Canada. I never really appreciated how lovely it is until I saw your photos. We have been for a couple of short trips to Nova Scotia and to Ottowa. Thank you for sharing.

I recently found my brother after searching for him for over 20 years, he lives in Quebec, I am in the U.S. So seeing the images you shared made it nice to connect to him in this way. I've never been to Canada or out of the U.S. - yet! - but one day I hope to and Canada is first on my list!
Thank you for sharing your work with me. I look forward to seeing more.

I'm a aspiring photographer and very often check random galleries on pbase to see how experts do photography differently.........but I got to say that never have I come across any gallery that has such amazing pictures, that its almost impossible to leave out even one picture and say that it wasn't that great. Thanks for the inspiration!

Gordon,

Thanks for sharing your wonderful images! I am also heartened that you share expertise. I believe it to be an important part of the photographic experience, one too often ignored by the more accomplished. Your galleries are stunning, everytime I think I'm getting somewhere, I have the good fortune of clicking on a collection like yours that quickly grounds/humbles me.

Joe Surdoval08-Sep-2006 04:39
Congratulations on a great body of work! I am especially struck by the great shots that you've gotten with lenses that are not favorites of the pundits. I don't believe that I've ever seen as many great pictures taken with the Canon EF-S 17-85 from one photographer before. I have that lens and have always appreciated its great focal length range on a 20D, but was was starting to believe its critics and keeping it off my camera. You've motivated me to give it another try. Thanks!

Gordon,
Wonderful set of galleries. Your dad started you on a great path. I, like you, was into photography in my youth, but marriage, kids, and the associated costs took up the budget for film. I discovered digital 2 years ago, and love it.

Your composition and exposure techniques are wonderful, but you color editing really makes your stuff stand out (IMHO). If you have any tips on how you achieve your results, I would love to hear them. (other than the fact you use an apple. :) In any case, well done, and you are definitiely on my favorites list.

The White Sands gallery was particularly impressive. Very nice work with, I assume, photoshop. Your colors are richly saturated without being overdone. All of the images I looked at had a purity I find comforting to the eyes. I am almost afraid to go straight back to the gallery I just posted after looking these images that were abviously prepared with great care.

The photos in your galleries is such a great testimonial for that Camera...Now I just have to get on a higher level personally -Because obviously it takes more than a good camera to do the kind of shots that you have in your galleries...and I am really going through many challenges with the D20 at the moment...its like starting alllllll over again..., But I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the inspiration you have been to me the last couple of months..

I don't know how you and some of the other greats pull off such great shots, but wonderful stuff...Maybe one day I will find out some of the secrets to those perfect moments.
Robb 07-Jul-2005 22:52
Dificult media is the expressionism through imagery, and you quite efficiently have grasped shooting the "Sea Scape" genre, with an apparent passion for the type.
I came to my conclusion after looking at your other photos, and found my eye drawn to the
high contrast, overwhelming appeal on a tonal range that seems to have a warm, and deeper
range of color and emotion most noted in your shots of "Water Lines" and "Coastal Scenery", in contrast to a drawn out and bland essence inherent to all other images in your portfolio.
Do not get me wrong, your compositions are excellent, but you have real power within
what could be construed as "Your Medium", resting with the water/coast, of which not in,
very many can say that they excel.
There are those who know the rules of composition and can take an appropriately layed out
photograph, and then there are those of whom, like you that feel their way into the photo
shot, like slipping into a warm bath on a cold day, and letting the shot explain itself,
and see the whole endeavor like a jeweler would vision a the ring as a setting, but no
less the importance, than the jewel itself, as the elements are relative to one another,
and may even in the great scheme of things cease to exist without the other.
Thanks for the opportunity you have given me and everyone else to actually see that the
sciences, now known as "Art" did not die with the masters, but is only expanding itself
through new masters yet to be.

Have a good day, and keep your lense dusted!
Robb

Gordon, many thanks for visiting my galleries. This reminded me to pay a reciprocal visit and I was overawed by the beauty of your images, I shoud definitely come more frequently.

One thing: I was absolutely amazed by your colors, especially blues but not only. They have depth and they are very contrasty and saturated and at the same time they are not excessive. Any word of wisdom how to achieve a similar wonder will be highly appreciated

My only regret is that you show your images in such a small size, something about 800xsmth will make them more justice

Guest 28-Jan-2005 15:49
Hi Gordon,

Your galleries are outstanding, and I do agree with the fact that camera is only a tool for picture taking, what matters which turns a picture into a masterpiece is the post-processing (i.e. darkroom or Photoshop). I'm just a beginner in Photoshop but already realized the power and capability of it, and I really enjoy using it. No more messy chemicals and hiding in the basement during the darkroom days.

I really envy your job as a commercial photographer, was that your full-time career or just freelance? I found it really hard to find such kind of jobs in the market, it's not the kind of jobs we see everyday in the classified. Would you mind telling me how you start this wonderful career? Thanks Gordon.

Ed
Gordon W25-Jan-2005 06:55
Songwriter, a Nikon D70 will take fine photos, as will any dSLR, that for all practical purposes would be indistinguishable from those taken with a Canon 20D. The 20D takes 8MP images while the D70 takes 6MP images. This isn't a huge difference in resolution and mostly allows for greater flexibility in cropping. However, a lot of the look my imagery has comes from what I do with the shots in Photoshop rather than which camera I used, same as in the film days with using darkroom skills.
Songwriter 25-Jan-2005 00:47
Hi Gordon,

I just stumbled upon your photographs. I love them. They are so beautiful that I bookmarked them! You are very talented, indeed!

I want to start taking artistic photographs. I notice that you use the Canon EOS 20D. That looks like a fine camera. However, I can't really afford it right now. Someone suggested I purchase a Digital Nikon D70 SLR. Would this camera allow me to take the came quality photographs that you have taken? I know it's all about talent and eye. But I'm talking when it comes to the quality of the image.

Thanks for your help and I will be back to see more!

Thanks for the very kind words, Jaymz. I use the Canon EF-S 17-85mm IS 4-5.6 lens that came with the camera as a kit and the Canon EF 75-300mm IS 4-5.6 lens. I've read good and bad reports on both these lenses and neither are 'L' glass but are certainly good enough for my purposes where lens bulk and weight are more important factors than having f2.8. You will read good and bad comments on anything so I don't take things written by other people too seriously until I see for myself. I recommend this as a good policy.

Hey Gordon,

Let me start by saying WOW!!! I am sitting here simply stunned ... your work is awesome! I especially love what you've been doing with the new Canon 20D. Would you mind sharing what lenses your are using with it.

An email would rock!

Cheers,

Jaymz!

Hi Pam. Thanks for your message. You are much too kind.

I'm looking to buy a Minolta 7D dSLR as soon as I can find one (it has the same image stabilization technology that's in my A2 and I'd miss that in any other dSLR), but while the 7D will expand my options as to lenses and sensor sensitivity I don't expect it to otherwise produce a significant difference in my imagery since better tools don't make one a better craftsman.

Also thanks for your compliment on my post-processing. I relate PP to what we used to do in the darkroom and what was done there was often as important to the final print as shooting the shot, so it's nice to hear from someone who has an appreciation of PP's value. Many don't, which always amazes me.

Glad you've enjoyed my galleries.

Gordon, you are a master with your current camera. Can't imagine what you will do with a digital SLR! You also have a wonderful understanding of post processing which is a downfall for a lot of digital photographers. I've enjoyed all your galleries and have bookmarked it for future visits.

Hello Gordon

Your pictures are awesome. Being an avid hiker in Algonquin Park I especially like your photos of the Park; so many I am familiar with. I have hiked every trail within the park, some more than once and your pictures take me back. Keep hiking, snapping and posting - I look forward to future pictures. Will we see winter photos of the Park?

Thank you

Hi Gordon
I do envy you as you live in a very beautiful country. But what I envy you most is your eye which captures all the wonderful shots here in your galleries. And you are so sensitive to the colours around you.
Thanks for sharing them.
Regards
Sunny

I recently bought a KM A2. I'm playing with it, reading discussions, etc. But it is still dizzying.
Also, when reading advice one doesn't necessarily know how much to value it.

On the other hand they always say: if you want to do something well mimic someone who does it well.
You are clearly very good with your camera.

Do you have a write-up anywhere on the web or not of how you use your camera. What settings do you
use? What don't you use? What settings do you pay attention to? What do you ignore? Any defaults
you use when you are in a hurry. Etc. Not that I'd expect you to claim you know the optimal approach. But you clearly know a quite functional approach.


There is too much on this camera for anyone to reasonably explore all options. So the most efficient
would be to imitate the options that someone successful uses, then play. I'd like to know what you
use.

Perhaps I missed this in my readings here and there. Or maybe you don't have such.

I am not a regular reader of your message board, so an email would be appreciated: ruina@cornell.edu

I witnessed your talents as a graphic designer and now I am impressed with your photographic talents as well. I visit this sight often for inspiration.

P.S. The printers are working perfectly.

I'll do that, Dennis. Thanks. Vancouver and Vancouver Island are two definite spots we're planning on seeing extensively, although not sure yet when we'll make it out that way. Companions will just be the wife and dog.
Guest 10-Aug-2004 05:14
Gordon,
If your headed out to beautiful Vancouver at any time , give me a shout.
Would be fun to meet you and your companions.
