Atmospheric Magic In Promised Land State Park

In this video, I am going to take you to Promised Land State Park (PA), an area I have wanted to get to and am glad I finally did. When I arrived at the park the temperatures were 5 degrees F below zero. As I started my hike, the weather was no longer a factor because I was presented with an enchanted beautiful environment. There was a blanket of clouds that created a magical ethereal effect. Between the cold temperatures and the water flowing, the affect that was created was mystifying. I hope you enjoy my journey through the frigid temperatures and to see the result of what I will say is my favorite image to date in 2023. Please check out the video & let me know your thoughts: https://youtu.be/6CHMVd0ThmY

    Hello Frank !
    My name is Marc, living in Belgium. I have been following your website since a short while ago,
    today i saw this update,
    there is only one word for it : Awesome !
    After Pentax I switched to Fujifilm for a year, and for about a year now to Olympus E-M1 MK III & MK II, and recently also an EM5 MKIII.
    I wish I had made the switch sooner 🙂
    Take care and until your next update !

      Marc, Thank you very much for your very kind comments. With the type of photography I do, this system is perfect for me. I’m glad you are also enjoying it. Please keep in touch. Frank

    Hi Frank, nice video and images.You mention your camera, yourself, and Cooper, so I assume you did not have an additional person taking photos and video of you. Reason I ask is that I saw at least one image that had stats of 0.5 second exposure.  For me, anything like that would necessitate a tripod,  Can we assume you did use a tripod?  I did not see a tripod in your equipment list.  Or…alternatively….are your arms that steady?   🙂 Ric

      Ric, Thank you and great question. I have up to 8 stops of image stabilization and therefore I often shoot up to 1.5 seconds without a tripod. I try to keep it maxed at 1/2 second. Especially on a cold day like this one. The one image of me, was taken by a friend of mine who was with me that day. Frank p.s. No tripods & my arms are not that steady 🙂
