oh Sunday too? noted..

 

Thank you

Something I've wanted to do more of was double exposures

 

Nice, on the ball dude!

 

I have a feeling..we will all enjoy this..

Not sure though..maybe the "winner" can pick the challenge every week?


there was a photo challenge thread but it was more for anyone and truck stuff. This i think we can keep it more photo enthusiasts and such..maybe..haha

 

^ like it.

 

Here's some overdone HDR haha I like pushing it's limits both ways and seeing how realistic I can make one edit and how "not-like-a-photograph" looking the next. I did one through some trees that looked like a straight up oil painting haha not for everyone but it's quenching my creative side when I need a moment to relax so here's a couple from Downtown Lincoln, NE.

 

damn i want a wide angle..haha

 

Buzzards -- those are sweet pictures! The second picture doesn't even look real. Maybe it's the tables that make it look computer generated? But I mean that in a good way.

Awesome stuff.

 

Definitely a very "creative" lens. I just need to get out of this stinkin city.

Yeah, I bumped a few things up and decided these were more fun for me in a hyper realistic edit. I took a few indoors with a lot of wood grain and bricks that I plan on having some fun with as well but these big buildings really lend themselves to the more "cartoony" edits without looking horrible IMO. They both look like a scene from a video game with great graphics to me haha of course I haven't played video games in a few years now. They probably look even better these days.

 

Nice pictures Chaz! I've got lots of pages to look back on to catch up with this thread again

Fun HDR's Chaz! No fun buildings to take pictures of here in the middle of nowhere WY

Joe, truck looks good! That blue looks nice in your shots

Last nights moon! Shot with the 70-200 f4L at 200mm, then monochrome HDR and small tweaks and a big crop in LR.

 

Whaaaaa..you have some cool old buildings to shoot in the middle of now where! haha


also..its very overcast here today..

 

Ehhhh yea there's lots of cool old broken down stuff but It'd be fun to shoot something that's kinda new! Anyone want pictures of walmart!? lol. Oh and on the walmart thing, there was a robbery at gunpoint there last sunday Monte!!! I'm carrying my 454 to walmart from now on

 

ha! yea but you live in Riverton! haha im not shocked at all..lol kinda cray though..why walmart? haha

 

yup, damn wild west here man. Everybody's at walmart! And you mean why would I take a picture of walmart or why gunpoint robbery at walmart? I might just get out for a walk today and look for cool stuff in town for once!

 

why gun point at walmart haha

and do it! although not gonna lie..Lander would be a cooler place for downtown..

 

Because Meth.

Yea... I've been driving over there everyday this week for work. not quite up for it today haha. Lots of awesome houses over there.

 

These are great! I'm interested in trying some HDR photos myself. I personally enjoy the "artsy" look of HDR.. Photography, as with Any art form, is a matter of taste so I'm not concerned with those that like to bad mouth it...
If you don't mind sharing, which program do you currently use to process your HDR photos and why?? Thanks & keep up the great work!

Excellent Tacoma shots.. I really like the Speedway Blue for photos as well..contrasts well with all the green there!!

Great moon shot!
Would you mind sharing what tripod you used for this??
I currently have a decent small travel tripod, however its not super sturdy..
I'm looking at upgrading to an Induro...
Thank you & I look forward to everyones sunset shots!

 

He is using photo matrix. Few of us have it. Great program.
