Virginia Western Arboretum
Man the weather sure has been weird lately…. a mixture of snow, 70 degree days, more snow, 6″ of rain and more snow…. I’m really not sure what to think about all of this. But on the photography side of things it has allowed me some warm days to get out and capture some sunsets and sunrises. After the first snow storm I went out to capture the sunrise with the fresh snow on the ground and sticking to the tree limbs the final image was one of the best so far in 2013 and was featured on the front page of the Salem Times Register on February 7, 2013.

So Christmas is finally here! The wait to use my new camera is over 🙂 so like a little kid I ripped it open, hooked up my Promote Control and mounted it on my Slik tripod and out the door I went. I’ve had this under the tree for almost a month and I was about to bust. Below is a photograph I took of Mill Mountain Star in Roanoke,VA with the new Canon 6D which is my first full frame DSLR. I was bummed when I got home and tried to process my raw files using Photomatix 4.2 because it doesn’t recognize the files yet so the HDR will have to wait until the update comes out.

I will be offering a new service called composite photography, this combines studio work with my HDR work. This is a two part process one the subject will be photographed in a studio setting using lighting and a solid color background. Second the background is shot using HDR or High Dynamic Range Photography. Then both are combined together to create one awesome eye catching image. To give you a little idea of what this can look like here’s an example I took recently.

I recently went on a meet up with the Exposure Roanoke group for a Urban Exploration shoot. We toured some old abandoned buildings that once served as repair facilities for the trolleys that use to be in the city. Here is one of the best shots I captured during the shoot. I am off for the weekend to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park to try and capture some fall colors and nature at its best 🙂

Yesterday the sunset was just too good to pass up, so I grabbed my camera and setup my tripod in the middle of the Roanoke River. The colors in the sky were just amazing. 🙂 In the next few weeks I hope to bring some more color to life as the leaves begin to change colors.
