Our accomodation on a recent trip to Bali

Dug a couple of bracketed exposures of Liffey Falls out of the archives. There was a LOT of rain that day so the longer exposures were just a big white cloud of water! I ran them through Nik Software's HDR Efex Pro and got a lot more definition out of the water. Would like to go back when it's not such a raging torrent!!

Spotted a Blue tongue Lizard in the bushes over the weekend... Fed him a piece of fruit to keep him busy while I ran to grab the camera, and this is how he thanked me!!

So it's been a while since I last had a crack at HDR and since then a lot of things have changed. I have some new software, some new hardware and a renewed passion for getting out and shooting!

This one is of the Uniting Church in Ross, Tasmania. I've been past a few times before, noticed the way it looms over the township from it's prominent perch on the hill, and thought it would be good to shoot. Unfortunately I didn't have time to wait around until the sky became more dramatic, so I just shot it as it was. Maybe next time I'll try a different angle to block out the distracting trees in the background.
Anyway, please leave a comment and tell me what you think :)
