Exploring color

Posted on by

We all love spring, right? Spring means better weather, outdoor activites and beautiful color.  For a couple weeks Nebraska lights up with  yellow wildflowers, purple and white trees. I find myself more and more looking at what’s in front of me and making it my own. The technique is placing your camera on a tripod , slow down the shutter speed and zoom in and out during the shot. Just like all long exposure shots you never know what you are going to get.

SCOTT PAPEK PRESENTS “DANCING TIDE”
“Dancing Tide” is a limited edition of only 300 gallery prints.
Returning to where I started my journey as a photographer was a cleanse for my mind and soul. Music, movies, authors, color, water, nature, light, chefs, presentation, design, friends and my family inspire me. The newest pricey camera and lens doesn’t inspire me.
Everyone is creative somehow, someway. All you have to do is find the right tool to get it out of you. Find out more here

Nature’s Art

                                              SCOTT PAPEK PRESENTS  “NATURE’S ART”

“Nature’s Art” is a limited edition of only 300 prints and captured in eastern Idaho October 22, 2012.

I  envisioned this shot 2 years ago and was finally able to bring my imagination to life with some luck and persistence. I would give anything in the world to be a painter but unfortunatley my brain and hands don’t understand the concept. When picking up a camera 5 years ago it made instant sense to me and has given me a way to paint in another format.
The technique is placing your camera on a tripod in portrait mode, slow down the shutter speed and move the camera up and down during the shot. Just like all long exposure shots you never know what you are going to get. You could say this image is very different from my other work but what’s inside me is all the same.      [pinterest-pro type=”pinit” pin_url=”http://papekphotography.com/natures-art/” pin_image_url=”http://www.papekphotography.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/naturesart.jpg” pin_counter=”horizontal” pin_desc=”Veritcle Abstract by Scott Papek Photography”]

Storm Upon

A nice little find off highway 6 west of Atlantic, Iowa. The pre-storm colors create a beautiful story here. Photgraphing in the midwest offers so much diversity with colors from seasons, storms and humidity.

Omaha Nebraska Photographer Scott Papek traveled to Jackson Wyoming to capture this image

This Image was taken last year in Jackson Hole Wyoming. No tricks, if you wait patiently for the light it does the work for you.
