f/5.6 – 1/400 – ISO 100 – 100mm – Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi – Cropped to remove distracting petal on the right
Took a walk through Balboa Park to relax and catch some air. It was busier than I’d seen in awhile. Also checked out the Museum of Photographic Arts, which had a really cool exhibit from Fredrick Roberts on India. Lots of good landscape photographs, including some abstract and surreal ones. Robert and Shana ParkeHarrison actually had a piece in the exhibit, too, which was cool, considering the first time I went into the MoPA I got to see their pieces featured. I love their work. The other main exhibit featured a Genetic Self-Portrait series by Gary Schneider. The flesh part of it was a little disturbing because the people looked like they were lying in a morgue. I wish the MoPA was larger here… then I could go more often to get inspired. :T

I’m not as happy with this one, but oh well… still trying to get a handle on what controls what in the Photoshop HDR Merge tool.
Torrey Pines Sunset

This photo looks more HDR… but I’m still experimenting… I like all the colors in the sky on this one, and the top half of the tree against the sky.
