Bandera Boot Heaven (pseudo-HDR)

Bandera is the dude ranch capitol of Texas, so they say! I was there a few years ago as a birthday treat from my folks and had a great time…as always, the camera was at the ready and when I saw the old boots on the fence post, I knew I had found boot heaven.

Sony P200, Single JPG, HDR Toned with CS5.

Hiding in Sonora Caverns (HDR)

admin — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 15:59:27 +0000

Took a half-day photography tour of Sonora Caverns back in December 2008 – as I learn new techniques and the HDR software improves, I find that I like to go back and see what I can do with previous shots that just didn’t work for me… like this one. If you have never been to the caves in Sonora, you should make time to go – this is an active, living cave, still growing – with many unique features. I’ll be posting more from the Cavern tour over the next months. Hope you enjoy.

Another shot from a bit earlier in the day of the Brooklyn Bridge and NY Skyline, from the 2009 road trip!

Color Leaf (HDR)

There was excellent color at Lost Maples several years ago and I am still working on the photos… here we have a leaf (Red Oak, I think) just hanging on in the late Fall.

Single RAW, converted with Photomatix and cleaned up with PS5.

Another Fabulous Sunset (HDR)

At the Oasis on Lake Travis in Austin, Texas…this is from last summer when the lake was very low due to the drought, which uncovered these "islands."

SWU Entrance (HDR)

Georgetown, Texas is home to Southwestern University and the campus is a great place for photography, I think.

Fishing for Lights (HDR)

Home Street in Austin, Texas is one of those cool, funky, Austin-y neighborhoods great anytime of year but especially fun during Christmas. Pretty much the entire street decorates for Christmas…and not your normal decorations – lighted motorcycles, volcanoes and tin-foil sharks have been in vogue over the years. And you can get a little Xmas shopping done too, if you are into lightsabers and glow in the dark goodies!
