Photographing Downtown Roanoke, VA

This past Sunday I had the pleasure to walk around and photograph the city of Roanoke, VA with some members from Exposure Roanoke.  Exposure Roanoke is a local meetup group who host numerous events for photographers of all skill levels, from hikes to photographing people in need. If you’re interested in photography you should definitely check them out!

 

Photo Share – Sunset On The Tracks

My Canon 6D is off to CPS for repairs…. so for this walk I was using my trusty Canon T2i, which by the way I just replaced with a Canon 60D this week (thanks to B&H Photo for the awesome deal! *body only $599 until Aug 31st*)    I might miss the old camera… it’s the one I cut my teeth on and learned after so many mistakes and not once did it let me down….

 Sunrise at Sunset Beach, NC

Just three more days until I leave for the coast of North Carolina. I’m totally excited for this trip, can’t wait to get up early every morning head to the beach to capture the sunrise. Relax all day then head out again every evening for more photography 🙂 sounds like a plan to me! Here’s one from last year’s beach trip, which was just after I had attended Trey Ratcliff’s “Art Of Photography” workshop.

Everyone have a great 4th! I plan on grabbing some fireworks photo’s if the weather cooperates. 🙂

 

It was my second day of vacation and this was the sunrise at Sunset Beach, NC.

Back From Georgia :)

Hey guys I’m back from Georgia, the week went by way too fast… But no worries I captured lots of photographs to share of my journey.  I have spent the last two evenings sorting through the 2,000 photographs to pick which ones need to be edited and shared. Some of you may wonder how I store my photographs and keep up with them all…. Well on a trip  I usually pack one or two portable hard drives which I download the pictures from my camera to the drives (1TB LaCie Rugged) and another copy on my laptop.  Then once I’m at home I use Lightroom 4 to catalog all of them, the ones to edit I give 4 stars too and the ones that are completed get 5 stars, my smart categories pull these into folders where I can view the ones to edit or post.

A Look At Pittsburgh- Through My Lens

 

This was taken last February from Mount Washington  it was a really windy over cast day and pretty chilly.  The city is full of bridges, great architecture and photo op’s abound. I wasn’t as good at photography then as I feel I am now…. I can’t wait to revisit this same spot one day in the future, to  try and create an even better version of this shot.  The City Of Bridges, The Steel City, Pittsburgh whichever you prefer this city is full of really neat things and places. On our trip we had the opportunity to visit the Pittsburgh Zoo and Aquarium which is very large and quite nice with lots of cool exhibits and animals.

The above photo was taken with a Canon T2i and a kit lens handheld and later edited with Photomatix Pro to create the HDR version. The view is spectacular and you can see for miles and miles!

URBEX Exhibit At The O. Winston Link Museum Roanoke,VA

By | Canon T2i, HDR Photography, Photography | No Comments

The O. Winston Link Museum in downtown Roanoke,VA is displaying the work of 10 local photographers in the new URBex ( Urban Exploration) exhibit.  I was lucky enough to have one of my Photographs chosen to be on display thanks to the Exposure Roanoke Group. My picture on display is one that I took under the Walnut St. bridge during sunset, the sky had some amazing colors and it’s an HDR image I created using multiple exposures and edited in Lightroom and Photomatix Pro. I’m currently working on a series of tutorials for how I do my HDR photographs and also some presets I will have for sale shortly for Lightroom 4. Here’s the picture that’s hanging up and if you get a chance to stop by you should check out the museum!

The Great Smoky Mountains National Park

By | Canon T2i, Landscapes, Photography, Tennessee | No Comments

So I had the oppurtunity to take two trips last year to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Tennessee, to capture the amazing beauty of the moutains, views, creeks and nature. I spent hours just in the miles and miles of creeks and streams in the park, it seemed every half mile I spotted something that I wanted to get a better look at and photograph. There are a number of HDR photographs I’ve uploaded to my portfolio from the two trips and I’ve still got more to process. I found this one to be interesting and  just had that cool feel to it, it was taken in low light close to dark using a long exposure and processed using IR.
