I took this shot of a little antique store called "Cherokee Rose Trading Post" outside of Rosharon, TX last Sunday.  It's a handheld 5 shot HDR composite that was post processed in Photoshop and enhanced with Topaz plug-ins.  I shot it with my Olympus E-1 and Pro Series 12-40 f2.8 wide angle lens.

ONE CHAIR TIME CAPSULE

This was my second shot submitted under the "Missing" assignment at the BAPC's "Honors Night" on Thursday.  The "Missing" connection I was going for was a "time gone by".  Dianne and I were walking down the street in Bryson City, NC when we came to this old single chair barber shop.  It was closed and I took this shot through the plate glass window in front.

HIGH ISLAND CROSS

This shot was taken Sunday evening on a trip to High Island shooting the BAPC topic "Beach".  There was a lot of seaweed on the beaches which didn't make for a great outing.

PIKE PLACE MARKET ENTRANCE

Here's a three shot HDR composite shot of the entrance to the Pike Place Market in Seattle.

"ASCENSION"

This composite recently was awarded "Gold" and high for the night on Bay Area Photo Clubs Honors Night last month and a third place ribbon at the Baytown Photo Clubs recent show.  It's a nine shot composite with the background being a six shot HDR of an alley on Texas Avenue in Baytown.

PASSING STORM AT GALVESTON

We drove down to Galveston a week ago hoping to catch some shots on the island as an approaching cold front passed through.  Our timing worked out pretty well as the rain broke just in time for the fast moving front to pass over us and I took this shot from the causeway gazebo.

GRAND CANYON CACTUS

This shot of a cactus was taken in the Grand Canyon on the banks of the Colorado River last summer.  I used Topaz's "Lens Effects" to apply the tilt lens look.
