Went down to Anastasia Beach looking for some birds and stuff and it was really dead. I did shoot a couple of shots to remind me of the beach

I shot this image out the front windshield of my car with a 100-400 canon lens with a 50D while I was driving to catch a sunset. Loved the color and mood of the scence. As they say on TV, don't try this at home, I am an expert at this type of shooting.

Here is a kind of pseudo HDR image I did a long time ago, before HDR got hot. I was playing with temp and lights in photoshop and mixing. This was a rather flat image and with a little tweaking, no adding of anything, was able to make it look ok.

Here is an old house I thought had some character. I took out powerlines and all the things that distracted from the shot.
