Sheridan's Summer Solstice Series

image


Several weeks after I retired I decided that I should return to Honeoye Falls to get a panoramic photo of the falls. Because the falls face north, I felt that the best possible lighting would be on the first day of summer. I arrived late morning and shot several panoramas and also spent time sitting on a park bench waiting for more light to fall on the red mill building. In one of my first retirement moments I appreciated that I now had the time to just sit and wait, no pressure, with some anticipation of the light and the photo. I realized that it would be fun to do a summer solstice series. Here it is, now with six in the series. I try to related it to some appreciation of the fact that it is the longest daylight and that the sun is farthest north in the sky.

I hope to continue the series for at least another 20 years. I can only wonder what techniques and capabilities will become available over that time.
