Day 23 of 23 and still hanging in there a day behind Pete. Joe was right, posting a daily picture is very difficult. Some days you have to settle for a blah photo; which I do not care to do. I will hang in there for a while until I feel that I'm just posting dog kah kah. Till then, here yah go.

It's sharp and colorful. Don't worry, the sun will eventually shine.

Decided to pickup Photomatix Pro today. Will need to take some time to learn the software, but played with a picture of Vermont's Statehouse.

Neat effect! HDR is allot of fun, I've been playing with the trial version, time to buy soon.

 

[jengajoh]

neat! I looks like a drawing!

loved the colorful picture
how about in dark background ??

Nice job, Chris. Looks like a pastel drawing.

Thanks for all the comments. I didn't spend a lot of time with this; just thought I would throw something abstract out there. I love HDR effects when done right, so moving beyond CS5 as suggested by some of my fellow Nikonites. Hope to share some great HDR in the near future!!!

Damp day outdoors

Nice shot Chris, very "earthy" feel to it. The perspective makes the doors look a lot wider than they may be.

Thanks Rick, Took me a long time to get the shot right.

Nice shot Chris, B&W was very appropriate.

 

[jengajoh]

I agree, the black and white was a great choice for this. I love all of the tones.

My day job takes me to many places. Not all of them are warm and fuzzy; but a photo can brighten up even a dreary place, even with ominous clouds moving in!!!

I love these last two shots, Chris! Very stormy and deep. Excellent composition. I like the effect of the 8mm focal length.
