An all-Texas episode of Stuck In Customs today! :)
We have our big PhotoWalk on Thursday evening here in Austin. It starts at 7:30 PM. Be at the Driskill on 6th and Brazos. We'll meet inside the Driskill in the Victorian Room. All are welcome, whether you are a beginner, amateur, or pro. It's simply a very laid back event where we will walk to a location, meandering this way and that as a group, taking photos, sharing techniques, and the like. Afterward, we share the photos online, exchange comments, contacts, etc etc.
Also, if you tune into ABC news in Austin on Thursday for their midday news broadcast, you might just see me! I have a short interview on there. I'll also endeavor to get a YouTube of it to share afterward in case you miss it (like I will).
To share your photos from the PhotoWalk, you can post links in the comments here, or you can put them up in a few places. Share them on
Facebook here, or share them on
Flickr here!
As for this photo below, it was shot about two hours outside of Austin in a little town called Brady. You'd like it. They have a Sonic there. This was a 5-exposure HDR shot at f/16. This kept everything in focus and kept the shutter open long enough to let the clouds drag across the sensor. In these conditions, you don’t have a lot of time to fool around because the sun is bookin’ it towards the horizon. If you are new to the site, then you might enjoy reading more about how photos like this are made in the
HDR Tutorial.
