Was down to Quidi Vidi looking for eagles and ended up with this… pigeon in flight!

To HDR or not to HDR?

That is the question! The other morning I woke up to an incredible sunrise so donning my fashionable pjs I grabbed my camera and went out on my front deck and set up. I waited a few minutes until the sun looked like it was catching the Earth on fire and snapped away. When I came in I started looking through and generating HDR pics. I have only done HDR a few times and am a complete novice so I am not even sure I have the setting to its best. I just keep playing with it until I see something I like. Compared to regular shooting I think I still am a fan of natural. I like HDR better when other people do it and on cloudy days to give the clouds texture and depth. Oh well that is my opinion anyway. By the way this sunrise was in Conception Harbour taken from Kitchuses.

Republic of Doyle

Why would I, or anyone for that matter, post this same damn shot again?

Well, a new show on da CBC, Republic of Doyle, nearly inspired me to get out shooting again. After the first episode, I said to the misses “Man, St. John’s looks beautiful… I’d love to shoot in such a vibrant and colourful place!”

Ah, but it’s January… and I say nearly because it was freezing cold and windy in town today. In short, I wimped out after clearing the driveway. So it was a quick visit to the archives, and a bit of dicking around in Lightroom, and there you go.

So this new show is pretty good… only thing I could criticize them for is going a little mad with the saturation, and perhaps only shooting when it’s sunny. Alas, that would make me a bit of a hypocrite.

Like a duck?

but not a duck… American Coot I believe. Taken down at QV lake.

Testing… just testing!

A few pictures I took while testing out some new gear!

This was was shot as ISO 3200, easily the highest ISO I have ever shot a picture at!!

and another with some off camera flash…

and I can’t forget some of the household pets…

My View

Well we semi moved into our new home over Christmas and we are finding we are getting a lot done with the plastering and painting in the evenings. I adore my house and all the work that is going into it and in the mornings when I wake I have to say I feel very lucky that I get to wake up to this veiw everyday.
