052408 Misc.

I have always liked HDR (High Dynamic Range) photos. They are just plain neat. I really didn't want to lug around the tripod and expose the three needed images though. So I started out with a Jpeg/Photoshop action combo that worked ok.

But after reading some more I found that you can set your Canon to autobracket and it takes three exposures for you. If you are steady enough they'll even line up! Bam! No tripod or exposure setting. That's what I practiced this week. Here are some.

052508 Happy Families Busy Sunday

I had the fortunate opportunity to take the family portrait of some terrific families with weekend. I also learned some good photography lessons. Here are some highlights.





052608 The "Farm"

Terri's Aunt and Uncle have property in eastern Kentucky that we visited yesterday. 2 and 1/2 hours away and almost untouched by human hands. If you like nature, this is the place for you.
These photos are from the ride out there, some of the farm, and the way back. Check out hte little horse!
