Just a recent photo I took + a little editing in PhotoShop = not a bad picture at all. (Taken from the balcony of a friend’s house in the Queen Anne neighborhood of Seattle).
Even though I didn’t specifically process it as an HDR shot, it has that look and feel about it.
More boats on the River Wear in Durham. I think I like this one a bit better than the one that only has the wooden boats that I posted earlier.
Again this was just taken as a quick snapshot with a point-and-shoot Sony Cybershot digicam. I saw the boats, leaned over the railing of the Elvet Bridge and took the shot. Not much conscious thought involved.
I wish I could achieve the simplicity of this composition more often.
The funny thing about this shot was that it was taken as more of a snapshot in just a moment of time. I didn’t think about composing it first. I just ducked my head through an archway as we were wandering around the castle grounds, and I just took a quick shot, and moved on.
I do notice that the less I think consciously about composition, the better my shots turn out (for the most part).
Wall & Sky, Northumberland, England

This one makes a very nice iPhone wallpaper. I have got to get back to northern England again soon!
Northern England had the most dramatic skies. I tried to capture this drama as best I could when we were there last year, and I am just now getting around to sorting out the best photos. This is one of them, I think.

Yet another attempt to capture the dramatic sky and landscape around Bamburgh castle in Northeastern England when we were there last year.
