Another image from the trip to DC. This one was taken on our first outing into DC proper. The weather was great that day, and we got to some great places right as the sun was setting, so the light had that magical twilight-ish quality to it. This image practically made itself, but I still used some Topaz Adjust on it to make the detail pop a bit. I got some great shots around this memorial, so I’d be surprised if this was the only shot I uploaded. Expect to see more of it soon. “It is evil things we shall be fighting against, brute force, bad faith, injustice, oppression and persecution.” – Neville Chamberlain 1939 EF-S 10-20mm f/3.5-4.5 USM @ 16mm ISO200, f/7.1 at 1/125 sec exposure

Another shot from our trip to Stonington Maine. The sun was so bright in most of my coastal shots that I had some terrible lens flares all over. Most of my photos were unusable as such. This was one that I was able to salvage. My mentor, Trey Ratcliffe likes to leave flares in his photographs, but I tend not to. I did leave some rainbowing in, as it was beyond my skill to fix and most importantly, didn't look terrible. This photo was also made salvageable in thanks to the new de-ghosting features in the latest updates of photomatix. Nothing like having a super sharp tide crash in HDRs :) EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM @ 15mm ISO 100, f/22 at 1/125, 1/30, and 1/8 second
