New York City View from Harlem HDR Morning

New York City View from Harlem HDR Morning, originally uploaded by redsox223.

I made this picture from a series of photos taken from an apartment building in Harlem facing the South. This is one of my first HDR pictures that I have successfully made and is becoming one of my more favorite images as of late.

Another Pond reflection

I took this at a local pond in Sharon, MA. Just as my other pond photo posted below, I was happy with getting the reflection off of the water of the trees. The clouds put a slight damper on the image, but overall I think this is a nice shot.

Racing Red Trucker

I took this during part of my cross country drive from MA to AZ. I believe we were in NM at the time when this photo was taken and I was messing with the manual focus and taking pictures with the side view mirror. I think this is a neat shot, any comments are appreciated.

Other pictures from the roadtrip can be found in this album here.

Spite House Boston – Fisheye

I rented a Fisheye Lens for a week and took a lot of pictures with it. Here is one from the “narrowest house in Boston” at a wopping 10 feet wide. The house is located in the North End of Boston.

I will post some other fisheye shots that I have taken of Boston.

Fireworks

This was taken at a local fireworks show on July 3rd. I have another few to post once I do some editing, but here is one that I like that without any edits. My only gripe is that the shot is a tad angled, but I can fix with that a quick edit at some point.

Baseball – Part 1

This was taken at Camden Yards on 5/13/08. Even though the Sox would lose the game, it was a great one to watch. I have some other photos from the game that will be posted in the near future.

Church Photos – Part 2

Here is one of the oldest churches in Old San Juan. I reformatted the blog and the intial post that had both photos was not done properly. I felt that this photo would look better with a B&W tint than in color. As for the car, I had not control over getting it out of the frame, and sans color fits in better, at least in my mind.

Old San Juan Fort

I took this at the fort in Old San Juan. The fort had many interesting aspects to look around and investigate, but this watch tower caughy my eye, as I was able to line up the walls and have a bit of sky in the frame as well.

Focal Length – 18mm : Exposure – 1/200 sec : ISO – 100

Window Sunset

I was going across country on a US Airways flight and snapped this picture somewhere over the Midwest. What was beautiful was that we were heading to the sunset so we had it in view for quite some time. The downside was that we were point directly at it so all I got was a weird view of it. So I just used what I had, the window, and think that I got a nice result.

Focal Length – 34mm : F-number – F/4.5 : Exposure – 1/320 sec : ISO – 800

Close Landing

This was taken from Maho Beach on the island of St. Maarten. I loved visiting this beach soo much as I was able to litterally be right under planes as they were landing. As I went there on a Tuesday, which is the airport’s slowest, this was the largest plane that I saw, an American 757.
