Been a little bit since I've posted a picture. Just been way to busy lately to even be on the internet which I guess is a good and bad thing.Taking this particular image was a little interesting in which while on my way up the Drury hotel elevator I was accompanied by a nice older lady. She told me of various spots around the hotel that I could take pictures and we had a short conversation as she led me to the balcony door. It was just than as I had set up my tripod that she had disappeared. I literally took less than 3 seconds to extend the legs in which I looked back and she was gone. Ghost lady?!? Maybe maybe not, but it was definitely an interesting night up there.

Anyways, I'll be in Austin this Saturday for a bachelor party but not before attending @TreyRatcliff's photowalk at 2pm CST. I figure I'll be there for around a good 3 or 4 hours before I have to head off to get ready but maybe I'll see a few of you there. For those of you not signed up yet check out his post on G+ to find the link to his photowalk.

While working on some of these images tonight I realised that I've really taken quite a bit of HDR panoramams. Vertoramas included, some of these are really giving me some problems. I think that's what I like about post processing, the difficulty that comes with some of them.

As the park was closing and the majority of the people were leaving I walked over to this spot to take a panorama. Unfortunately due to many people still wanting to get their pictures takin by the Disney cast member photographers who were just to the left and right of me getting in the way it took almost an hour to complete this. Of course the cast members are very friendly so the entire time I was chatting it up with the two about photography and working at Disney. Like all other nights at Disney this one turned out to end pretty well, except for the sore feet.
