Labor Day

Sep 1 2008

f/5.6 – 1/3200 – ISO 400 – 135mm – Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi

My parents and Carol came to visit this weekend and we somehow ended up at the Midway Museum in Downtown SD. It was pretty cool to check out, and amazing how they all fit in those tiny bunks and cramped quarters. The deck was definitely the coolest part, with all the old retired planes… but man, was it hot up there.

Happy Labor Day! Hope no one worked too hard today :P

After Sunset

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.

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.

I bracketed a series of shots of this tree and rock, hoping for a cool HDR effect… looks like I need to experiment some more. The main thing I noticed was that the sky was more colorful after the HDR merge. I’ve got a few more bracketed sets from the short hike through the Torrey Pines State Reserve… I’ll see how those go.
