I captured this image on Labor Day, 2011. It was a very cloudy day.

This photo was edited with Viveza, Color Efex Pro 4, and Topaz

Adjust.

It was a cloudy morning at the nature center and the sun was trying

to get through the clouds.

I've been at this grain elevator before but never captured it at this

angle before. This photo is a 5 bracket series using Photomatix Pro

and Topaz Adjust and Detail to get this final image.

I found this abandoned motel while I was exploring Preble and Darke

county in Ohio. The motel is along Rt. 40. The door was open so I

went in and captured this photo. I shot a 5 bracket series and used

Photomatix Pro with Topaz Adjust and Detail to get this image.

Found these abandoned shops while traveling in Kentucky. HDR

image from 5 bracketed photos.

This is a HDR image of Hardin Grove fishing lake. It was a rather

dirty lake with trash along the edges of the lake. I cleaned up the

edges. It's a shame people throw their trash in public places. I used a

series of 5 bracketed photos with Nik Viveza and Topaz Adjust to get

the final image.

Found this lake in the afternoon and it was perfectly calm. I love

reflections and had to capture this image. This is a HDR image using

photomatix pro, topaz and nik plug-ins.

I don't see barns with any advertisements on them around where I

live anymore. While traveling in southern Ohio, I saw this barn with

the advertisement and had to stop and capture it. I used the HDR

technique and use photomatix pro and topaz and nik plug-ins to get

this final image.

Another part of the abandoned farm I found in Darke County, Ohio,

on Saturday, June 18, 2011. This HDR image was made using

Photomatix Pro to merge the 7 photos together.

Bear's Mill near Greenville, Ohio. This is one shot of the interior of

the mill. It's an old grist mill that is still in operation.

I waited quite a while for the rain to stop and ended up with this HDR

image. I'm glad I waited.

I found this abandoned farm while I was out looking for HDR subjects

on a rainy Saturday.

Processed this photo twice in Adobe Camera Raw, once for

background and once for flower.

I took this original JPEG and in Adobe Camere Raw I made three photos at

3 different exposures and merged them together. I then used Topaz Adust

and Detail to finish this photo. Comments appreciated.

I used this JPEG and tried to make a HDR Photo with Adobe Camera Raw

by making 3 different exposures and merging them together. I used Topaz

Adjust, Detail and Simplify to make this photo look like a painting. Comments

appreciated.

I took 7 photos of this house at different exposure compensations from -3 to

+3. After merging together I used Topaz Adjust and used Crisp, Spicify,

Clarity, and Sketch-Dark Charcoal each at 50% opacity and merged them

together to get to this final image. Comments appreciated.

I was working on an old photo of Eze, France. I did a tonal mapping and

added a vignette to this photo. I was just trying to see if I could get a HDR

effect on one photo. Comments appreciated.

This is one of my first attempts at HDR Photography. I used 5 photos to

make this HDR photo. The photo was then edited. Comments appreciated.

Found this mushroom in the yard today and did some editing work on it.

Comments appreciated. Thanks.

This waterfall was behind a couple of large boulders. It will not be there

later this spring. I'm glad I found this one.

This is a photograph of the Lower Falls at Old Man's Cave at Hocking

Hills State Park, Ohio.

This a photograph of the Upper Falls at Old Man's Cave, Hocking Hills

State Park, Ohio.

Cedar Falls splits around the hugh boulder at Hocking Hills State Park,

Ohio.

I took this picture of the small stream going over a series of descending

drops. I like the different textures that were captured in this photo.
