West Virginia

Left Main Waterfall

Left Main BranchContinuing to explore the work from the spring trip to the highlands of West Virginia and I just love the light on the left branch of the main waterfall at Blackwater Falls.  This image is representative of what can be done during an upcoming workshop I am planning.  More details to come soon.  You can view and purchase this image at this link.  You may also order by phone by calling (304) 634-0372.  All major credit cards are accepted.  

"Douglas Falls" added to "Water" portfolio

Douglas Falls, West Virginia, copyright 2010 Jeff BallSpectacular spring greens surround the colorful Douglas Falls in the highlands of West Virginia in May 2010.  The lighting condition were simply perfect on this day for this scene as there were high moderately thick clouds with just enough sun to provide highlights on the lush spring green foliage.  I also viewed a gorgeous Indigo Bunting while photographing in the area.  Spectacular West Virginia scenery in the spring of 2010.  Please don't forget to click on the image for optimum viewing in black portfolio window.  I hope you enjoy the image.  

Elegant Elakala Falls in the highlands of West Virginia

Elakala Falls, copyright 2010 Jeff BallA new image has been added to the "water" portfolio of the elegant Elakala Falls in the highlands of West Virginia.  The image was taken during a brief spring shower with the Canon 5DMKII and 24mm tilt/shift lens.  The image is actually a blend of two images to maintain detail in the waterfalls.  I hope you enjoy the image and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to drop me an email.  Take care.  

New Print and Print of the Month Specials

Blackwater Falls, WVThe first image from Blackwater Falls area will be the first image of a new portfolio as well as the first image in the Print of the Month collection.  

The new portfolio will be "water" and will feature works that highlight the artistic beauty of water in nature.  I am very excited about this portfolio and have many other images to come.  

The Print of the Month is a very special offer for one frame and matted size print.  The print size is approximately 16x20 framed to approximately 24x28 and can very slightly depending on the image aspect ration.  The Print of the Month offers savings of 20% over the original retail price.  

The Blackwater Falls print is a compositional element I have been working on involving a "near-far" composition in landscape orientation.  Most near-far compositions have a portrait orientation, but for several reasons, I am exploring the landscape orientation especially in the forests of West Virginia.  

I hope you enjoy the print and please let me know if you have any questions
