Sleeping Beauty Castle Two Looks

Here are a couple of shots of the the Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland. They are both 3 shot HDR images, the second one we converted to infrared. I'm not really sure which one is better so that is why I'm posting both.

This was taken just before a fireworks show for the evening so the castle was roped off so nobody could walk in. The cast members were nice enough to let me get close to get this shot. So it was a great chance to get a shot of the castle with nobody in the shot.

Paradise Pier Disneyland

This is a 3 shot HDR image of Paradise Pier at Disneyland's California Adventure.

Taking up photography as a hobby you really seem to notice more that you would otherwise miss. Like this shot for example, I have been to the park a few times before but I never had caught this view. It's because I was searching out locations I got to see this hidden little area. It is in an area as well that unless you ride a specific ride you might completely miss this.

Water Dancing Around The Eiffel Tower

Here is a single shot HDR image of the eiffel tower in Las Vegas Nevada. This was taken across the street at the Belliago during the water show that happens every half hour or so. There are so many different areas to take in the water show so it's always pretty interesting.

This is a HDR image of the Golden Gate Bridge, which was then converted to Black and White and textures were added on top of that.

This was taken on the drive up to Fort Point, which can be seen at the lower left hand corner of the picture. This is an old fort which is interesting to take a tour of, plus it offers fantastic views under the bridge, in some cases so close you feel like you could touch the bridge.

Peace In Paradise

This is a HDR image of the Byodo-In Temple on the island of Oahu, in Hawaii. This is away from the main drag of Waikiki and you have to drive though a cemetery to get here but making the trip out here is really worth it. This is a great place to walk around and take in the peacefulness, take some photos and just reflect.

The Palace Of Fine Arts At Night

Ghirardeli Square

This is a HDR image of Ghirardeli Square in San Francisco. This was taken from an area that is really great for catching crabs. I guess it must not be allowed anymore because a cop told us to leave the area a little after we got this shot.

Sunset In Hawaii

San Diego Skyline..

This is a 3 shot HDR image of the San Diego Skyline, shot from Coronado Island.

Coronado is a great little place with view like this. Not only that but the dock in this picture rents out jet ski's at a very reasonable price. You get to drive them up and down this channel which is a huge area to go in, so much fun. Just one of the many fun things to do in San Diego.

Revisiting Photos

Sometimes you have to go back to some of your old work your not happy with and see if you can better it. We really liked the textures and treatment we did but didn't so much like the leaning effect the photo had. As we have learned we were able to fix this, and apply an extra filter to come out with this result.

Looking Up..

Sometimes you have to look up to get an interesting shot. This is a three shot HDR image of the Eiffel Tower in Las Vegas Nevada.

We were walking down the street, and of course you can't miss this large structure, but as we were walking around it we looked up and found this interesting shot.

The Sphinx

Disneyland California Adventure Fisherman's Wharf

This is a 7 shot HDR of the fisherman's wharf area of Disneyland California Adventure.

This was taken just after the World of Color show so the area was pretty empty, and we were able to get a shot without anyone in it. Disneyland does a very good job creating a replica of the Monterrey fisherman's wharf. The Tower of Terror can also be seen in the back right of this image.

Venetian Gold

This is 7 shot HDR image of the Venetian Lobby statue.

This is a tough shot to get without anyone in the shot, or in front of the statue. For this we went in the morning around 8 AM. Even then there is still a good amount of people to deal with, so we had to be quick and get the shots off.
