New Mount Washington Panoramics

Saturday, April 10th, 2010

On March 16, 2010 I skinned up Wildcat to photograph the east side of Mount Washington before the spring thaw came. While it wasn’t a perfectly clear sunrise, there was some nice dawn light and alpenglow. Here are two panoramics I created from photos taken that morning. They both show the main features of Mount Washington’s east side; from left to right are the Gulf of Slides, Tuckerman Ravine, and Huntington Ravine.

Pre Sunrise:

Photo Details: 5 individual photos merged in Photoshop, Canon 5D on tripod w/ EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM lens @ 90mm, 1/40s @ f/4 and ISO 200.

Sunrise:

Photo Details: 4 individual photos merged in Photoshop, Canon 5D on tripod w/ EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM lens @ 95mm, 1/100s @ f/4 and ISO 200.

Fall in the Alpine Zone

Friday, September 25th, 2009

Fall colors on the Alpine Garden Trail, September 24, 2009.

Alpine vegetation during Fall on the Alpine Garden Trail. Mount Washington, New Hampshire.

After staring at the computer for most of the morning yesterday I had to get outside for some exercise. The weather looked like it would hold on Mount Washington for the afternoon; so my route looked like this: Pinkham Notch (2pm)>Tuckerman Ravine Trail>Huntington Ravine Trail>Henderson Ridge (5.4)>Nelson Crag Trail>Alpine Garden Trail>Lion Head Trail>Tuckerman Ravine Trail>Pinkham Notch (5:40pm). I remembered the iPod Shuffle, but forgot a headlamp.

Photo Details: Panasonic Lumix LX3 (point and shoot). Exposure was 1/640s at f/4 and 400 ISO.
