Karl Batchelor's photostream  

Another shot from one of my recent early morning walks. Nothing beats watching the sunset or sunrise.

Ok, so this is not exactly the right time for summer shots but have been meaning to post this for some time and as I did not get out this weekend I thought now would be a good time.

Had wanted to post this yesterday but due to the SOPA situation I decided to wait and stay away from the internet as a personal protest. Yes that means no online shopping... This image is a HDR from a few weeks ago. Have been getting up extra early in attempt to catch that beautiful light. HDR created in photomatix 4.0 and imported as 16bit tiff to CS4. Very basic edit with curves and hue adjustments.

Up to my old tricks again. Have had no chance to get out this week so here is an image I created last year. Truck was taken at a car show and the rest is an image from my Archives.

This shot represents a breakthrough in my photography learning. I know it sounds profound but when I first got my DSLR the thing never came off Auto, Slowly I shifted to shooting RAW and using "AV" alot. This image was taken in Manual and I ignored the little computer inside my camera telling me I had it all wrong. Single shot almost SOOC.
