The Water Falls of The Mirage

This is a HDR image of the water falls at The Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.

There are so many interesting places to take pictures of in Las Vegas, you really could spend a few weeks walking up and down the strip trying to hunt out new things. Behind this waterfall is a volcano that shoots off most nights. We did not have a chance to shoot that, maybe next time.

San Francisco in B&W

This is a 3 shot HDR image of Pier 7 in San Francisco, CA, we then converted it to B&W.

We spent a couple of nights in San Francisco back in March and the days and nights were very nice, and very clear. We have done a couple of shots of this Pier before but there are so many different things you can do in post process. There is so many lights on the dock it casts a bit of a yellow on the scene, so switching it to B&W we felt really takes that a way and gives the beauty of the scene.

Fort Point From Above

This is a 3 shot HDR image of Fort Point in San Francisco, California. This was shot from above on the Golden Gate Bridge. It is really quite fun to go over the Golden Gate Bridge, you can walk or if you prefer many places around Fisherman's Wharf offer bike rentals to bike across the bridge. On clear days you get nice views of the downtown skyline.

Like A Rolling Stone...

This is an HDR shot that was taken at the Hollywood and Highland Mall in Los Angeles, California. It was then converted to black and white via Silver Efex 2.

This is one of those shots you get lucky to stumble upon. We were walking around the mall, which has many great picture ops, so make sure you stop by if you are in the area. We walked out to this ad that was posted by Rolling Stone, which in itself was very interesting. Right in front of the ad was someone who was smoking, the pose, the dress all seemed to go with the style of the magazine.

Picture in Picture

This is a 3 shot HDR image of the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco, California. As we were there taking the photo we noticed someone painting, so we moved in behind him to take a look at the painting. As you can see he did a fantastic job of it.

This is a 3 shot HDR image of a canal in the Venetian Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. This canal runs through the mall that is inside the casino. On the left of the picture you can see a white boat, this is a gondola that is used for people that would like to get married in the casino. They also have some regular gondolas you can take a ride in, and the paddler will sing to you, fun stuff.

Start Spreading The News....

I'm leaving for... Vegas today.

Yes that is not how the song goes and this, and this is not New York either. Rather it's the New York, New York Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. This is a 3 shot HDR image of it. Las Vegas is such a great place for HDR, especially at night for scenes like this. The evening was a very nice evening to shot this as well, not to hot or cold. 

This image was shot from the MGM Grand, there is a little platform that does not really lead anywhere and it was the perfect location to shoot this.

Come and Play

This is a 3 shot HDR image of a room that was setup in the casino floor of the MGM Grand, for a baccarat tournament. The room was very colorful and we figured it would come out well in HDR.

The Painted Ladies

This is a 3 shot HDR image of the San Francisco Painted Ladies, also known as Postcard Row. One of the most popular area's in San Francisco to take pictures of. This was shot from Alamo Square, a park across the street.

These houses are also famous from a T.V. show. If you remember the old show Full House, the opening credit shot when the family is playing in the park, with the houses in the background. This is that park!!

Vegas Nights

This is a 3 shot HDR image of the Eiffel tower at the Paris Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas Nevada. This wash shot across the street from the Belliago Hotel and Casino. We wanted to capture the full tower as well as the traffic across the street. The long exposure makes a nice light trail at the bottom of the tower.

Aloha Tower

This is HDR shot of the Aloha Tower in Honolulu Hawaii, from what we heard it's comparable to a symbol like the statue of liberty, but the Western version. They allow you to go to the top of the tower, and from there you have fantastic 360 degree views of Honolulu. If you are ever in the area check it out.

Fight Night In Vegas

This is a 3 shot HDR image of a boxing ring that was setup inside the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas to promote an upcoming boxing match. The match will be between Manny Pacquiao and Sugar Shane Mosley, should be a good fight.

This boxing ring was a popular place for people to stop by and take pictures, some people even hopped in the ring and had to be chased off by security!! In order to get this shot with no one in front of the ring I waited ready to shot as soon as a group of women left. Once they left I fired off about 12 shots in a row, this was about the only time when no one was in front of the ring. So make sure on your shots you have a lot of patience, and be ready to shoot when you do. I had to wait about a half an hour to get this shot.
