Multi-frame composite DV image. October, 1999

A tripod was essential for the images in this composite - I used the TRV900's lens at nearly full telephoto and I had to set up the camera in the lee of my vehicle to escape the high wind. I manually selected for a high shutter speed to ensure sharpness, a difficult feat, for I could barely see through the tears that resulted from exposure to the cold wind. Notice the cloud shadows in the middle distance. When you can include the shadows of clouds on your landscapes, you know you've been really lucky with the weather. It looks more like Africa than Alberta!
