pDOTeter's photostream  

In the late eighties I discovered photography using my dad's camera (Olympus OM-10). In 1993 I bought my first SLR camera (Minolta 7i with a lot of accessories), at that time I was mostly interested in landscapes and used it a lot on my several travel trips to Norway, Austria and France and shot mostly color negative film (Fuji Velvia was my fave), also experimented a little with infrared B&W film.
Due to circumstances I lost interest in photography from 2000 till 2008, at the end of 2008 I discovered the photostream of Erroba on Flickr (friend and colleague from work), when I saw his work with HDR I was excited again in photography. After some research on the brands active in the DSLR range, my decision was made and bought me a Nikon D90 SLR kit, a little bit later I also bought the Sigma 10-20mm lens for some quality wide-angle shots. In 2011 I had an accident with the camera and upgraded to a D300s.

For post-processing I mainly use Lightroom as database and developing tool, I also always shoot bracketed shots for HDR processing and try to get the most natural looking pictures after the HDR process. For this I mainly use Photomatix and Oloneo Photoengine.
This post-processing phase, is a phase I missed in the analog days. Now I can envision a shot, take the picture and make it happen on the computer.
