This is what happens when you get to the airport too early. iPhone photo taken through the gate window. Processed with Nik Software's Snapseed app.

This is part of a series that I am working on. I shot this just as the sun was setting and in color it's "nice." B&W makes the picture. (Sometimes I wonder if my brain works in monochrome.) There are some other versions of this pictures that were also really cool.

This was taken in the nature area of the South Platte Park.

Taken during a walk just after a snowstorm in early February of this year.

High key effect created using Nik Software's Silver Efex Pro 2 and Photoshop.

This a picture of the interior of the Super Chief Navajo Observation car taken at the Colorado Railroad Museum. I had the idea that I wanted to show the butte outside of the car window to give the idea that the car was still traveling through the West. It was an overcast day, but I thought the clouds did lend a certain feeling. This was processed as an HDR through Photomatix Pro and then converted to B&W using Silver Efex Pro 2.

This car has quite the history. You can see more information on at the New York Social Diary from the article The Super Chief - The Train of the Stars.

This a picture of the interior of the Super Chief Navajo Observation car taken at the Colorado Railroad Museum. I think this HDR is a little over the top, but it seemed appropriate for the condition of the interior. The varied textures and colors contained in that car are amazing. HDR also helped to bring in the outside through the windows. The HDR was created with Photomatix Pro and tweaked slightly using Color Efex Pro 4 in Photoshop.
