My other hobby, photography.

[dcm2010]

Here is my other passion. Work kind of limits the amount of time I have to get better. My wife is also into it and better than I am. She is taking some classes, though she doesn't really need them. Here is what I have taken and actually got posted to flickr in the last few months. A couple are taken with a Canon 110 IS P&S, the others a T3i. A few early HDR attempts.
Posting them in medium size, full size can be seen on my flickr page, some of these were shot in RAW and other JPG, the HDR's were taken at 3 exposures.

Frac stack, HDR purposely over done. Wow just noticed it needs leveled.

Just figured I would share, I don't think I'm that good but getting better. I almost always shoot in manual or exp/apt priority modes. The P&S shots are the oldest. I think I'm getting better, I use Painshop Pro for editing, I have thousands of pictures I need to go through on my laptop. I need to edit some of these also.

Thanks
Dustin

Nice pictures...I'm just now getting into the HDR thing myself. I'm going to TX in two weeks and hope to get some good practice with it while I'm there

Thanks, HDR is what really has my attention right now. It just takes more time. We are going to San Antonio and Dallas this week for vacation, hopefully I can get some more pics.
