Photo Share – Dreaming Under The Pier

This one was from back from my summer vacation to the Outer Banks of North Carolina, that I just got around to editing.  This one is a simple one image edit using Topaz B&W Effects and Photoshop Creative Cloud. One thing I love about a composition like this is the ability to capture that sense of depth in the image.  The one thing I tried different on this one was to use the fusion express 64bit processing combining Topaz B&W and Photoshop to bring out the details and light in the posts on the pier.

Playing Around With Multiple Exposures

Shooting Multiple Exposures Canon 6D

I just got my Canon 6D back from Canon Professional Services and I have to say the level of service I received was even better than I expected! The repairs were done super fast the communication was spot on and they fixed my camera under warranty for free! Once I had the camera back I wanted to go out and test it right away so I took a trip up to Mill Mountain in Roanoke, VA and decided to shoot a multiple exposure image, first shot was the star then turned around and positioned this star over the city below. Editing was very simple adjusted the blacks slightly in Lightroom and did some cleanup to remove a sign on the lower left in Photoshop CC. (Note to self remember to check the settings in your camera after repairs… mine was set back to jpg and not raw)

Photo Share – Around The Pier

The sunrise wasn’t as awesome this morning as I had hoped, so I changed things up by using a B+W 10 stop ND filter. It’s amazing how a 30 second exposure can totally change the look and feel of a photograph! This one is pretty similar to one I shot last year at Sunset Beach in North Carolina, but I’m liking this one a little better. However both of them have been awarded 🙂  http://www.viewbug.com/photo/3948351

A Walk Through The Sound

 Corolla, NC

This one came from my visit to the Currituck Lighthouse located in Corolla, NC. (You can see more about the lighthouse here http://www.currituckbeachlight.com/about/) You can climb to the top of the lighthouse for a small fee. The line was long and I’ve already been to the top so I skipped that part. Instead I wandered around the grounds looking for different angles to shoot the lighthouse and I found a good one at the end of this walkway.

Darkness Falls Over The Sound

I’m back from my week long trip to the Outer Banks of North Carolina and the trip was wonderful! I captured some amazing images, now it’s time to process all those images and share them all. 🙂

This is one I took over the Roanoke Sound just after sunset it’s a long exposure (30 seconds) taken at a pretty high ISO (3200) using my Canon 6D.  I love the colors and the mood of this photo, plus there are the stars in the upper right corner, the reflections in the water.

I’ve decided to add some of the photo’s from this trip to my eBook “Photographing Bodies Of Water” the book will be released in the near future. The book is a story of my journeys and trips photographing different parts of the coast, rivers, streams, ponds and lakes. Along the way in the book I give tips to beginners looking to improve their photography, tips like gear selection, tips on composing photographs and post processing tips.
