Filmed with the Tamron SP 150-600mm VC + Canon SL2. I do not normally hike with my fluid video tripod head so I had to make do with a ballhead for this panning video.

Real estate work brought me to Sussex County today, a good excuse to get outdoors with the camera for an hour.

Foggy Landscapes at Ryker Lake – Canon EOS M50 + Sigma 17-50mm

I spotted morning fog and made a beeline for Ryker Lake in Sparta prior to other business in Sussex County NJ. The area is part of Sparta Mountain WMA and can be good for photographing wildlife as well as landscapes.

Here is a behind the scenes look at setting up a landscape shot.  My camera setup is the Canon EOS M50 digital mirrorless camera and the Sigma 17-50mm lens.
