Botanical Gardens
Yesterday my Viewfinders Camera Club held its first annual awards banquet at the San Antonio Botanical Gardens. And whether you are resident or visitor, if you haven't discovered this place you owe it to yourself to check it out. It is a photographers' paradise. Lots of flowers and stuff of course, but some really cool other structures including a number of large glass enclosures for plants. I was fascinated by the glass buildings and since HDR is my fun thing of the month, I had to try some triplet shots for HDR merge. Here is one that I think came out pretty well. Comments welcome.

Power to the People
So I wanted to try some HDR effect on an industrial subject. I stopped at the power distribution yard on Sonterra Blvd. at Hwy 281 and took a few scenes using a three-shot burst at -1,0,+1 stop exposure. Did the HDR thing in Paint Shop Pro and here is one result. Not very realistic, but I think appropriate for the subject matter.
