HDR Photography

I think the HDR Photography is a very cool way to make your pictures pop! It produces more color and deffiance to the picture and deffinitly more detail & texture. Some people though when using this setting overdoes it and it can turn out very badly. For a picture to be overdone, the contrast would be out of wack and it wouldn't look normal or too blended. You want a picture that does stand out, but doesnt make photo editing or settings like this one to obvious that it shows the second you look at it. The HDR Photography is awsome though, and its something i wouldn't deffinitly use all the time! (:

Second Photo Critique

Second Photo: The view of this photo couldn't be any cooler or different but the hue or saturation could've been a little more or the color could've been boosted. I love the detail in the water and how you can see the moisture in the lily pads, over all is a good picture but could've been approved a little bit just with the color

First Critiques

First Photo: The lack of color does NOT bring out the picture of the rocks or the water, and the horizon does not seem clear. The rainbow is the only thing that stands out and could still even use a little more color, and the way the beach and water take up half the photo instead of 2/3 or 1/3 is boring and could be a little more defined. I do like the view from the rocks and the way the rainbow cuts through the length ways of the photo and the darkness of the clouds really defines the rainy day that makes the rainbow. Deffinitly cooler then a normal sunny picture at this scene.

Ordinary to Extraordinary

Who could this be? Could it be just an ordinary halloween decoration on a soda machine? Or maybe it could be someone who was desprate for a soda and died of dehydration! One day, the skinniest man you would have ever seen in your life, practically bone, was crawling down the hallway suffereing from dehydration. He did not go to this school but had been traveling through the state and ran out of food and water. The man sadly found the soda machine, but realized he had lost his wallet! He ended up dieing up against the soda machine, inches away from a cold drink! ): 

Photography Article: How to shoot wildlife photography from a vehicle

For shooting photography In many cases, a vehicle can gain a closer approach to a wild animal than a person can on foot. For example, most wildlife in national parks have grown accustomed to vehicles, and they know there's no threat. Shooting from a vehicle can be done using a stable platform that attaches firmly to the driver's door when the window is rolled down. (These door mounts are available through various sources.) You can also use a burlap or fabric pouch filled with uncooked rice, beans or coarse sand. This actually is my preferred choice for shooting from a vehicle. I travel with it empty, but when I arrive at the shooting destination I'll fill it.

The Things They Carried

"The Things They Carried"

This is my great- grandpas crucifix that my mom has carried with her throughout her life. No matter where we move, it's always hangning up on her wall and at the hardest times she still says she feels him watchin us. I wish i would've gotten the chance to meet him, but thats why this crucifex is so important in our family.
