Photos from a Series: A Photo Series.

[DrRoebuck]

Over the past few months I've taken the moto on some great road trips, and photographed things along the way. I'm working on a few different series. This one was supposed to be the Los Padres National Forest series, but it turns out a bunch of them are from the outskirts of the forest proper. And by outskirts, I mean within 150 miles or so. Actually, every photo in this series took place on a trip that took me through the forest, which I guess is why I lumped them together. I've posted some of these in random threads over the last few months. Feel free to ask for those not to load. I'm currently working on a couple other motorcycle facilitated photo series: • Shots from the Santa Monica Mountains • Shots from my Trips to the Gas Station Highway 33, in Los Padres National Forest. I posted this before. I believe I called it the Stanley Kubrick tree, on account of its phallic nature. I stand by that. Not code. Yup. Posted this before, too. Ok, so these first shots were part of a road trip, the report of which I previously posted. One of my personal favorites. I submitted it to 1x and was de-nied. I can see why , I guess, but I still like it. Posted in a different thread. Finally some new material. This is in "Heritage Valley," between Santa Paula and Fillmore. On a family drive to see the snow. Same drive. Rose Valley Falls. Somewhere near Palmdale, after a failed trip to Gorman to see wildflowers. The beautiful Maricopa, a few miles north of the northern tip of Hwy 33. Waaay later that same day, after getting a late dinner in Mojave. Back at Rose Valley Falls.

When you share these kind of collections you make me wish I spent more time just looking at things.

1) I like 'em.

2) Get a tilt/shift lens, it would be right up your alley (photographically speaking).

Excellent as usual Roe. Love your compositional style and add your PP skillz and you always deliver.

'Highway 33', 'Somewhere Near Palmdale' and 'Doghouse' (restaurant?).

I fantasize about the 24mm tilt shift, but it's soooo much $$$.

The tree w/ the curvy gravel road is the clear winner. Great stuff!

I can't wait for the gas station trips series.

Nice shots, doc. I always watch for your threads, even if there were a bunch of repeats.

What's the one with the oak tree and the winding farm road in the bg?

Thanks, baby.

I'm totally enjoying the scooter, but holy damn tires are expensive. Guess I had race ones on there before ... they ride great but only lasted about 7000 miles. Now I've got Michelin Road 3 tires on it. I hate them and hate how the bike handles, but they should last a lot longer and my mileage is way up.

Thanks!

That's Cerro Noroeste Rd. before it winds down and hits Hwy 33.

Is there a cheap (sub $100), small (fit in jersey pocket) P&S camera out there that you can adjust the F- Stop so I can set the depth of field manually?
