My Fence After Sunrise

I had just made breakfast, looked out the window, grabbed the camera, took two shots, came back in and ate breakfast. My initial interest was just the fence with roof shadow. After I started working on it, I did a portrait crop and came up with a much more pleasing image.

Lazing About in Willow Creek

Haven’t posted for awhile. I’ll try to be more diligent about it. I usually post more dynamic parts of the creek. But, this calm pool was synced to my mood.

Dry Lagoon

This is a study in excess. Because I was shooting into the sun, I needed to use HDR. Also, I wanted to make sure it was sharp all over. I captured a 9 exposure HDR for each of the foreground, mid-distance, and background. The resulting 3 image were then focus stacked into a resultant image. Done. But, then I was giving a presentation on Deep Dream in a Zoom EPUG meeting and decided to show what a default style would bring. This is what I got when I combined with the photograph. Prescience in Deep Dream? Who knew?
