Revision History 2022
This is the 2022 revision history of the Lumen Perfectus Web site. Probably not of general interest, but it helps us keep track of the site's growth and maintenance.
We replace the "Photo of the Day" daily; we won't log those changes here.
Use the "newest photos" link in the table of contents at left to go directly to our most recent additions.
(2022)
- 26 November: This week's new photo is a pastel after-sunset September sky near our home in western Montana.
- 19 November: A panorama of the Mission Mountains, with a November dawn lighting the sky above and fog below, is our newest photo.
- 12 November: Yet another Perma rock photo is this week's addition. One or two more to come, maybe.
- 05 November: We've added another photo to our series from our September photography of road-cut rock near Perma, Montana.
- 29 October: We've added another early-morning photo of western Montana's Mission Range, made at the same time as last week's picture.
- 22 October: Pre-sunrise light colors the sky above and the fog below western Montana's Mission Range in this picture made on a chilly October morning. This addition required adding a second page to our 'Mission Range' gallery.
- 15 October: Continuing the series started last month, we've added another photo of the stone walls along the road through Perma, Montana.
- 09 October: This week's photo shows a pair of ravens on a massive rock on a sunny October morning. We also made a minor update to the site's 'About' page.
- 01 October: Another great post-sunset sky, photographed from our 'back yard' is this week's addition.
- 24 September: Continuing the series started last week, we've added another photo of the stone walls along the road through Perma, Montana. This picture shows a small pine hanging on in the rock rubble.
- 17 September: We've added a page to our 'Series and Sequences' gallery to exhibit photos we've made of stone surfaces in road cuts along Montana's Highway 200 near Perma. The first picture is posted today with more to come over the next few weeks.
- 16 September: Corrected a link and made minor edits to our July, 2019 article.
- 10 September: Another great post-sunset sky, photographed from our 'back yard' is this week's addition.
- 03 September: Today's picture is of morning sun lighting a newly-cut hay field under a stormy sky. We put this photo in our 'Hand of Man' gallery, adding a page to accommodate the new picture. We then moved a similar photo to that gallery from the 'Scenic Montana' gallery.
- 27 August: We've added a photo of sky over the Mission Range lit by pre-sunrise light on a late May morning.
- 21 August: It (still) didn't rain, but a storm-darkened morning sky over a recently cut sun-lit hay field made an interesting subject for this week's posting.
- 13 August: We've added a black-and-white picture of a decaying cabin in Montana's Blackfoot Valley near Potomac.
- 06 August: The full Buck Moon (July) was also a 'super moon.' 13 July being a clear, warm evening, we photographed the rising moon, and it's this week's new posting.
- 30 July: Added a photo made last week of a rainbow over the hills west of our house.
- 23 July: This week's addition is a photo of storm clouds in the warm light of sunrise. The rain shower led to a rainbow, photos of which likely will be later postings. Adding the new picture required adding tenth page to our 'Other Scenics' gallery.
- 16 July: The full Buck Moon (July) was also a 'super moon.' The 13th being a clear, warm evening, we photographed the rising moon, and it's this week's new posting.
- 10 July: We've added a photo of arrowleaf balsamroot and a large boulder in the warm light seconds after sunrise. To achieve the desired depth of field 11 exposures were made, each focused farther into the scene than the previous one. The images were then 'stacked' in Photoshop's Photo Merge tool.
- 02 July: This week we've added another after-sunset photo of colorful clouds with small foreground trees in shadow. Yet another sunset photo made from our driveway.
- 25 June: We've added a picture of a crumbling barn and chicken coop, the photo made earlier this month in Montana's Blackfoot Valley near Potomac.
- 18 June: From our Around Montana gallery we moved several pictures to the new Mission Range gallery and adjusted as necessary to fill spaces this created. We added a new photo of sunrise light on arrowleaf balsamroot.
- 11 June: We've added another photo to the Mission Range gallery created last week.
- 04 June: We have a number of photos that include western Montana's Mission Range. Some are in galleries featuring other subjects, such as Flathead Lake or Ninepipe NWR. But some 'feature' the mountains themselves. Today we've added one of those, and created a new gallery for it. Over the next few weeks we'll be moving relevant photos from other galleries to this new one.
- 27 May: We've added a photo of arrowleaf balsamroot and a large boulder in the warm light seconds after sunrise. To achieve the desired depth of field nine exposures were made, each focused farther into the scene than the previous one. The images were then 'stacked' in Photoshop's Photo Merge tool.
- 21 May: This week's new photo shows a tangle of cedar tree root, lit by muted morning sun, along the shore of Glacier National Park's Lake McDonald.
- 14 May: We've posted another photo from last week's visit to Glacier, this time a black-and-white view of the mountains and highline across a mirror-flat Lake McDonald.
- 07 May: After a long absence we visited Glacier National Park a few days ago. Today's posting is a view across a mirror-like Lake McDonald, a photo not unlike many others on our site. Still, every day is unique in the park, especially this time of year when there are no crowds.
- 23 April: We've added another Michigan photo, of fall color at Little John's Flooding on a sunny October morning. Moved pictures around in the Michigan gallery to accommodate this addition, keeping the pictures more-or-less in chronological order.
- 16 April: Back to the archives: we've added another photo from a 2008 trip to west-central Michigan, of colorful fall leaves swirling in an eddy in Bett's Creek.
- 10 April: This week's addition is a panoramic view of Yet Another Otherworldly Sunset, as a pair of deer wander out of the frame.
- 02 April: We've posted a picture made a few days ago of a backlit deer on a ridge under a stormy sky shortly after sunset. The photo was captured near our home in western Montana.
- 26 March: Still having fun digging through the archives, added yet another photo from a 2008 trip to west-central Michigan.
- 19 March: This week, another photo from the 2008 visit to west-central Michigan, this a square format close-up of fern in leaf litter around a moss-covered stump. It's nicer than it sounds.
- 13 March: We've added a photo from a 2008 visit to west-central Michigan, of morning fog lit by the rising sun over Gooseneck Bog.
- 06 March: Today's new photo is another in the 'minimal' category, of two small trees on a ridge under pre-sunrise clouds, west of Montana's Flathead Lake.
- 27 February: reaching into the archives we've found and posted a 1976 photo made in Bar Harbor, Maine, of a sailboat in pre-sunrise light. It's not as sharp as we'd like, but given the conditions and the equipment used over 45 years ago, we'll call it 'acceptable.'
- 05 February: Another from the archives, and another 'minimal' photo, this (again) from a 2014 visit to Washington's Mount Ranier National Park.
- 29 January: Dipping once again into the archives, we've pulled out a photo made in 2014 in Mount Ranier National Park, of sunrise fog over Reflection Lakes.
- 22 January: We've added another B&W photo, similar to last week's, of clouds over a hill west of Montana's Flathead Lake. This was made in the same session as last week's picture, but of a different hill with a somewhat different sky.
- 16 January: This week's addition is another in our 'minimalist' series, a B&W photo made today of mid-day clouds over a hill west of Montana's Flathead Lake.
- 08 January: We've added a photo made near Pebble Creek, in Yellowstone National Park in February, 2006. It's a black-and-white picture of a snow field and pine trees.
-
01 January 2022: Updated the Revision History pages for the new year.
We added a photo from the archives, a 2020 'focus stack' picture of a rapeseed (canola) field.
