Aurora HDR

There’s a new kid on the block of HDR Photo Processing, meet Aurora HDR Pro from MacPhun. This new software is a stand alone Mac only HDR machine! With some custom presets for different looks and starting points. You can do layers, tone mapping, export to your favorite apps and more!  Go check it out!

Below was my first edit using Aurora HDR Pro!

Chasing Fall Colors

Fall Photography In Tennessee

The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is always on my list for fall photography. This year the colors were pretty good, maybe not as good as two years ago when I went but it’s always beautiful.  This shot was taken near Townsend while wading the creeks with my Canon 6D. I just loved the reflection of the colors that created this tunnel of color.

Having Fun With Baseball Portraits

 

Last weekend I created some cool baseball portraits using some basic lighting and water. The end result was a very dramatic portrait that’s just not seen every day. This setup was fairly simple and I could set this up on almost any location. I’m always looking for new athletes and teams to work with! So if you’re interested in my sports photography feel free to contact me.

Photographing Waterfalls

Photo Share – Laurel Falls

Waterfalls make excellent subjects to photograph. The one thing I love about them is most of them require a hike to get to the actual waterfall. It’s kind of like finding a prize at the end of a maze! Waterfalls are natural beauty and can create beautiful prints to hang in your home or office.

Tip: To create an image like this slow your shutter speed down to around .5 second or longer this can be achieved by the use of ND filters or by photographing them during overcast cloudy days.

I used a setting of F22 without an ND Filter for this shot of Laurel Falls.

 

Back To The Grind

Photo Share – Over The Mountains

It’s been a slow start to 2015 for me but I’m starting to get back to the grind.  The beautiful mountains here in Virginia always make for great photographs. Mix them up with a Formatt Hitech Firecrest 16 Stop ND Filter and you get something like this. I edited this one using Intensify by the awesome folks over at Macphun!
