I've had a little fun over the past couple of weeks. I've setup a small gallery on the third floor. It is in section 3S next to the center stairwell.
So far I've just done some quick prints. I'm still in the process of getting setup at home to do some proper photo editing. As I get more prints I'll replace some of the ones that are already up or add more frames. My ultimate goal is to have pictures all the way around our cube walls.
Nikon D60, 18mm, f3.5 ISO 1600, 20 second exposure with some Photoshop work.
Nikon D70, 50mm, f4, ISO 200, 981.9 second exposure, some Photoshop work.
These are Some HDRs I shot just north of Caulville bay, on the edge of lake mead. I originally just wanted to shoot them in HDR to minimize harsh shadows, but this look turned out to be more fun.
These palm trees were really cool to walk under. There were hundreds of them. It felt like attack of the palm trees but it was very pretty.
Was at the air show this past weekend and really enjoyed the Thunderbird show! love my 200mm zoom :)
I discovered this strange looking tree on a walk in Utah. I believe the evening light would have been better, but I returned to Vegas that morning.
This is a photo I took at the Encore in a suite overlooking the strip. There was an awesome view of lights but the reflections from the window were challenging. I decided to use the sheer black curtains to block the sharp reflections. I like how you can still see the outside lights through them and also some of the lights within the room.
This is a shot from a photo shoot my wife and I took of some friends of ours a couple of weeks ago. My wife was the director on this shot, so I gotta give her kudos. I had to Photoshop in some open eyes here from a consecutive shot.
Fonda's computer is down and this cell photo is being posted on her behalf. Only 9 1/2 hours late. :)
I saw this building from a couple of miles away and thought it must have collasped. Being the junk seeker that I am, I had to get a closer look. Turns out that it is being built like this. It's the Brain Institute for alzheimer's. The architect has a strange sense of humor but I must say it is an amazing site! I thought I had seen it all in Las Vegas but this one took me by surprise!
I spent a few hours at an abandoned mine near Lake Mead on Saturday and took 100's of pictures. I like how these are ugly things in a beautiful landscape.
I took these photos on Saturday night using a tripod with the camera on a 30 second exposure. It was my first time night shooting with long exposure times. There is no manipulation on either of these photos.
