Today’s featured photo of the day! Winter

Here is today’s featured photo. For the rest of winter, I am featuring my collection of frigid photos! Here is a set of photos from a January sunrise at the former Westgate Golf Course which for years was on Ridgeland Avenue between 135th Street and Alan B. Shepard High School in Palos Heights, Illinois! Date –  January 1982.

Westgate Sunrise tele-extender.png

First photo taken with a zoomed in photo with a Vivitar 70-150 zoom lens and a 2x tele-extender zoomed in at 150 mm x 2 or an equivalent of 300 mm, filter=polarizer, Aperture=22 f/stop, shutter-speed 1/1000th second. The sunrise is darker because of the use of the tele-extender, but it is a nice shot!

Photo taken with a Nikon FE camera through a Vivitar 70-150 zoom lens (without the x tele-extender) zoomed in at 150 mm, filter=polarizer, Aperture=22 f/stop, shutter-speed 1/1000th second, loaded with Konica Fast ISO (ASA) 400 Color 135-20 Negative Film processed with C-41 Processing Chemicals, and a Type C Print using the RA-4 enlargement paper process, onto a 4X6″ semi-gloss print.

☼FACT:  You lose 2 full f/stops by using a tele-extender, which zooms in twice as much, doubling the capacity of the zoom lens. If you use one, the photo will get that much less raw exposure to light. ☼

See you tomorrow with another cold and frigid photo of the day!!
