Haven't had a great Sunset photography for sometime. So I took a short trip to the South Mountain in Phoenix to take a look at the beautiful sunset on the cloudy day. Honestly, taking a great sunset photo isn't easy. I took over 80 shots and only have one come out close to what I want. It's not even close to real professional sunset … [Read more...]

However, I am a visual person, so I will be focusing on realistic HDR from this point on. These are the last few photos taken at Arizona Renaissance Festival.

Sunset Crater Volcano

Well. This is the only photo I had for Sunset Crater Volcano in N. Flagstaff AZ. I was NOT trying to create fancy HDR image, but I end up try to make it look more like a realistic HDR. I also don't have a wild angel lens, so I use my default 28-135mm lens for the shot. I am still learning how to adjust the software to make it NOT too dark … [Read more...]

Stop Sign HDR

As much as I love HDR photography, I am not so much about making it unreal. We were stopping at the cross road near Snowbowl ski resort in Flagstaff AZ. I figure this will be a great spot to take some dramatic scene. This is just the beginning of my serial HDR photos in the coming days. It was supposed to snow, but we did not get to see … [Read more...]
