Instead of watching the election coverage I headed out to the local wildlife refuge to take sunset pictures. HDR images where 5 images with different exposure settings are blended together. Enjoy the first with my new 5D.

Amazing colors! I like the colors of #1, but the composition of #2.

I cannot make up my mind, so I will take both. :D

I do love the reflections in the first image, I would pick that one if I was only allowed to pick one.


just a few of my thoughts...

Thanks everyone for your comments. Being in the right place at the right time sure helps. Lucky this spot is just 5 minutes from home. Last night I thought the clouds and sky were going to be perfect but very few colors were produced.

I use Lightroom and Nik HDR Efex Pro 2 for the HDR images. Just learning the program and find it very challenging to not go overboard in the rendering of the final image.


May there be peace
