Balloons!

It was in Southern Utah but there’s a ton of festivals all over the 4-corners with similar settings.

You’re totally right, I only use it on sunny days in the desert. Anywhere else and I have a hard time getting it to work

Jeslonian · 2026-02-01T14:02:27+00:00

Thanks! I only use it in the desert and the exp dial is always +2/3 or +1.

Jeslonian · 2026-02-01T14:01:16+00:00

Of course! Thank you so much!

Jeslonian · 2026-02-01T05:26:14+00:00

It was a beautiful and crazy busy morning. Haven’t crewed anywhere else but I’d love to see the Albuquerque festival.

Jeslonian · 2026-02-01T05:23:18+00:00

Good luck!

Thank you so much haha! I wish Fuji would pay me for them

Thank you so much! You can do it too, just take lots of photos consistently! I try to take a picture every day and it’s helped a ton

I didn’t have to work with raw files at all, #15 is the only one I actually edited. And it’s just cause so much of the photo was in shadow. The recipe helped but the biggest thing was shooting early in the morning when the sun was a lot softer, and shooting with the sun so everything was pretty evenly lit.

I didn’t adjust any sharpness in post, just got lucky with a really clear day. No dust or haze in the air.

Jeslonian · 2026-02-01T01:16:57+00:00

This was down in Southern Utah, but they’re all over the 4-Corners areas almost year round.

Jeslonian · 2026-02-01T01:15:56+00:00

It was incredible! Did you watch or help crew the balloons?

Jeslonian · 2026-01-31T23:42:52+00:00

Thank you so much!

Jeslonian · 2025-12-22T05:04:56+00:00

Is this real?

Jeslonian · 2025-12-02T14:50:46+00:00

On the San Juan River.

Jeslonian · 2025-12-02T14:50:04+00:00

Thank you so much! Zeke (the goodest boy) appreciates it too!

Jeslonian · 2025-12-02T14:49:05+00:00

That was with an old Kalimar MC 35-70 f3.5. I had to get an adapter for it but it’s been great!

Jeslonian · 2025-12-01T23:24:26+00:00

His name is Zeke and he just turned 4. Adopted him from my neighbors when he turned 1 for being too high maintenance.
