Nikon 1 V3 Hodgepodge | Rooster Tail The Straits of Mackinac sees boats big and small. This Rooster Tail is traversing the Straits of Mackinac, fast. Black and white adds contrast and depth to the image.
The Back Story Sometimes, vacation time provides an opportunity to slow down, relax a bit, and make a photograph outside your comfort zone. This image was a simple click on the boat ride to Mackinac Island. I did darken the dark’s and lightened the light’s in post processing. Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
