This photo is also an HDR from three slide scans. Again, I’d retained in my slide collection three versions of this scene, each about 1EV in separation. So I scanned all three and then blended them in Photomatix to get this result.
Tag Archives: Photomatix This photo is actually an HDR made from three different slides. I happened to have a -1, 0, +1 EV set of three slides for this scene so rather than just use the scan of one of them, I decided to take scans of all three and run them through Photomatix to get this result.  Photo of Arch Rock, a natural formation in the Valley of Fire State Park in Nevada. 
wicked it’s really awesome 
Nice picture. In this I can see forms and shapes, like looking into a cloud. Elements like this are inspiring to me, and it is nature afterall. I also like the colour version, but the B/W brings out more definition to me, making easier to create ideas from such as this. Like a wooden burr is to marbel – there is so much to see beyond what you see. Nice work Richard. - Marquess Meubelkunst.nl  The traditional definition of a desert is based on a (lack of) rainfall figure – less than 250 mm (10 in.) rainfall per year. An alternative definition is a place that lacks sufficient vegetation to support human population. the English word desert comes from the Latin ‘desertum’ meaning an abandoned place. 
Currently parts of east anglia qualify as a desert, and summer has just finished here too, over 20 and no rain for weeks. The ditch along Lottage road is as dry as any desert gulch no road flooding this year, waiting for the Dabchick so that we can se when some nonegenarian tells us when, if ever, it last happened.  With the sun setting on the horizon and thunder clouds rising into the distant evening sky, Lake Verret is about to slip under the wing of this Southwest Boeing 737. 
woow…. amazing.  The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum was located in Cleveland ostensibly because DJ Alan Freed coined the term ‘Rock and Roll’ during his radio years with WJW-Radio in the city and because he helped organize the Moondog Coronation Ball on March 21, 1952 in the city, generally held as the first rock and roll concert.  I was drawn to this image by the strong colors – the red of the brick, the green of the siding on the building and the yellow of the leaves on the tree.  Walking around to the other side, the stamp reads, ‘FREE’, which is intriguing, because it couldn’t possibly have been free. It must have cost something.  I always find public art fascinating. While walking from the Ritz-Carlton in Cleveland to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, I’d sauntered through Erieview Plaza and behind Cleveland City Hall to emerge into Willard Park. 
Very striking colours! 
[...] yesterday I posted the first view I had of the giant red rubber stampin Willard Park, [...]  The two bridges in this view span the river at Carter Road. The blue bridge is active and carries the road traffic. The rusting bridge in front of it carried one of the railway spurs that used to serve the industrial area known locally as The Flats. 
I know this photo from Mardi Gras (top image). So you been to the Mardi Gras. Missed it this year. I’m from NO, living in UK. Laissez le bon temps roulet.
Yes, my wife is from New Orleans and we try to get there for the weekend if it falls right with our kids’ school holidays. I posted a series of images from Mardi Gras earlier this year which you can view here: http://www.richarddavisphotography.com/category/usa/new-orleans/mardi-gras/ |
