Waterfalls in the Jungle HighlandsHere is an amazing place on Oahu. Right after the rain, a thousand little waterfalls tumble down from the highlands. When I was here, there were record-level storms, which kept the waterfalls full and robust. The shooting conditions were really tough! I have a video of what it was like to get this shot coming up at some point in the near future! :)- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Starlight in Downtown Los Angeles Here is a crazy spot I found thanks to sweet sweet Stuck On Earth. I’ve been to downtown LA many times, and there are many good angles, but I think this one is just about one of the best.There was a lot of waiting around, however. I had to wait for big busses to pass me on either side so I could set up for the long exposure.Usually, I’ll take 5 exposures in these situations, but I do something a little special. I’ll take the quicker exposures right away (often 1 or 2 seconds). And then I’ll pause and wait for a bus or something before taking the longer exposures. I create the HDR then mask in the tail lights from the photos where I get the best trails. I made that sound easier than it is, I think.-Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this entry at the Stuck in Customs blog.
This is an HDR from a single RAW file I got out of the NEX-7. There was a shaft of sunlight shining on the little plane as my family was about to crawl inside and brave the storm beyond…
Here is a good example of the in-camera HDR I took as our plan was landing on Virgin Gorda. It’s pretty cool, eh? I mean, perhaps it is a little rough, but it is a REALLY good example of how this camera works. It took 3 exposures, but you can see there is no ghosting. Also, the outside was extremely bright, but it looks well-adjusted here.
This is a single-exposure shot. There have been Lightroom adjustments.
Here is a shot of Spring Bay in Virgin Gorda. I took 3 exposures using the Autobracketing and then my special HDR method to create this photo.
Here is a zoom-in of Ethan. And, remember, since it is a 24 megapixel camera, this zoom in is STILL 1300+ pixels across!
