Hello and welcome to our website. This is the place where I share my photography, goings on of family and my own musing using my blog. I use this space as a playground on the web. I very often change the look and feel or try some new idea for content. If you have any ides on some cool content, let me know.
My Photography
My photography has come a long way in the several years since I started. I am mainly a landscape and Nature photographer. I spend one day a week heading out around Southern Idaho looking for photo opportunities. I have been mainly focused on High Dynamic Range (HDR) photography. While the is a sore subject for many photographers, I find it to be very pleasing and more true to what my eye sees when done properly.
HDR photography is used to create images with I higher dynamic range. This allows one to see in the shadows of a scene and also see the highlights just as your eye would. To accomplish this, one takes several photos, overexposed, normal and underexposed and combines the photos together using software to produce a single HDR image. I am currently using Photomatix from the company HDR Soft to combine and tonemap my images. My post processing is done with Apples Aperture.
Photo(s) of the Month
This is the spot that I use to feature a photo{s) that catches my my attention. As I stroll through the countless galleries that thrive out on the web I will see one that stands out about the rest and I will write about it here. I might write a short review or even write a story about what my mind conjures up when I look at their work. No matter what happens, I feel that others hard work and efforts should be celebrated and mention made. Enjoy!
Spotlight
I use this section of the site to shine the spotlight on various things, places, websites or even people. There could even be words about some server rendered, good or bad. Its possible I could even write about a good restaurant that I have eaten at, or even a movie that we have seen to give a thumbs up or down on. The sky is the limit, so who knows what might show up in this space.
