Was itching to go somewhere and have a proper photo shoot day, so I looked up things to do in Carmel and happened upon a place called Point Lobos State Reserve. Saw some cool photos on Flickr, so that's where we went last Saturday. We didn't get too far away from where we parked, but we had an awesome couple hours or so exploring the rock formations and tide pools near the spot we stopped. I think it was somewhere near Weston Beach that we spent all our time. Point Lobos is a huge park, so we barely, barely even scratched the surface of what we could do there. We'll definitely go back again sometime and get there earlier in the day so we can fit more activities in, but I was pretty content with the time we spent there that day. All the colors and textures caught my eye. I took some photos, then rummaged around and picked a few shells as souvenirs. Later I realized that I wasn't supposed to take any shells. Oops!

As you can see in the upper left corner, a rock's shadow can greatly cut down on glare from the water's surface. Unfortunately I didn't have anything else to help cut the glare, but it doesn't matter. I still got a good look at this huge anemone and its little crab friend. :)

This anemone was as tricky to photograph as the others that were further underwater in certain tidepools, but luckily I was able to take advantage of a rock's shadow to help combat the glare from the water. I just cropped out the overly glare-y bits. :)
After I got back from my little exploration trip on Marsh Rd., I stopped off at the gas station. On the way home I saw a section of the road that had a bunch of trees with leaves turning colors, so I parked nearby and took a bunch of pictures for the rest of today's 'Roid Week photos. I'm still learning how to shoot with the Colorpack II, so the focus in this shot isn't good. I don't really do that well estimating distances to set the focus manually on non-SLR cameras like this. But hopefully as I continue using the Colorpack II, I'll get better!

I'm not a fan of cameras with auto flash that can't be overridden. As much as possible I like to stick to natural light. I was hoping that the lighting was good enough that the OneStep CloseUp wouldn't fire the flash, but I guess not. :-/

Still learning how to use the Colorpack II. Since the ISO's so low, the shutter speeds aren't great for handholding. :-/ I'll have to figure out how to brace it against a tripod or monopod with a bean bag on top or something...
Taken during another drive on Calaveras Rd. Needed a wider lens! I also wish there were some nice, fluffy clouds to add interest to the sky.
