An Idea

My first try playing with HDR (high dynamic range). Basically you take 3 photos at different exposures and combine them. This allow you to capture the darkest parts and the lightest parts of a picture.

This turned out more interesting then I thought. The blue is from another light I was using for the photo. The blur in the blub is from the wires vibrating too fast for the camera to capture them and make them look still. Even at 1/4000 of a second then are still too fast.

Wedding Invitation

This was part of a wedding invitation we received. I used a light behind one of the folds to make it glow and then added the red in Lightroom. Thought that it made for an interesting photo.

The Capital

National Portrait Gallery

Although these are not perfect they are my favorite.
We stumbled into this gallery by curiosity and found several works of art that were incredible some of which we were not able to take pictures of.

Edited it Lightroom.

Abstract Metal

Marco shots of a metal clip on light. The top photo's ridges make it feel 3D. There is no grain in the pictures it is the texture of the metal.
