I can copycat…

It has been a very busy week and will only get worse next week.  Hopefully, I can get back to posting pics more frequently in the next few weeks.

We have noticed over the past month, that our baby girl is learning the art of “copycatting”.  Here’s an example.

ISO 320 1/125’s 35mm (Leica M Monochrom, Leica 35mm summilux, Lr 4, Aperture 3.3)

 

The other end of the fountain – HDR necessary?

I read somewhere on the web that the Nikon D800E dynamic range was so great, that shooting HDR (blending multiple images together to increase tonal range) was unnecessary.  This image was one image but edited in HDR Efex 2 so that I could use their tonal range processor.  I believe I have to agree that the need for HDR to get such a large tonal range is probably not needed?

P.S.  I posted the original picture (click thumbnail).  Also, I posted a previous picture of the front of this fountain here.

ISO 100 1/125 sec f4 14mm (Nikon D800E, Nikon 14-24mm f2.8, Aperture 3.3, PS 6, HDR Efex 2)

Endless Fountain

Twice a year, I participate in the AO North America Foundations Podiatry Basic Course.  It’s always an honor to be asked to speak and teach.  It’s a busy few days but once in a while I get time to get out and take pics.  Here is the fountain at the hotel we are staying at, Hyatt.

ISO 320 1/4000’s f4 35mm ND filter (Leica M Monochrom, Leica 35mm summilux, Silver Efex Pro, Apple Aperture)
