Will be busy printing and framing in nice large, matted formats and frames and museum glass! Five of these photos will be printed on 40" x 60" floating wall mounted metal sheets! I think I know which–will share photos of the photos hanging on the walls!

And I am mounting some on plexiglass/acryllic–front mounting them! Some I am printing on lossy fuji-crystal archival paper too, and then front mounting 40"x60" versions to plexiglass–will send photos!

The secret to HDR photography is that you want people to say, "Woe dude–that’s unreal!" And not, "Dude–that’s not real!" "Unreal" is the word they use when they’re trying to figure out the photo–what makes it cool–is it a photo? Is it painted? How’d it come to be–how’d you bend the light that way? "That’s not real," is what they say if you have the saturation/HDR/ etc. turned up too high. 🙂

Some (almost) final edits for my Los Angeles Gallery Show! Printing them on metallic paper at 13" x 19" and mounting and framing them on a 4mm 18×24 white mat and 2" dark wood frame. Also printing some 40" x 70" whihc is over three feet by five feet! Wish you all could come (and hang out with the goddesses)!

These were shot with Nikon’s best D800 with the 14-24mm wide-angle Nikkor lens. 7 exposures were taken at 1 EV intervals, and combined in photomatix to bring out the shadows and highlights.

Rather large HDR (high dynamic range) photo–you can see great detail both near and far! View the detail at full size!

High Dynamic Range (HDR) photos rock in capturing the full dynamic range of the scene!
