A couple I grabbed in the Japanese Garden that's nestled in Balboa Park, right next door to a sewage treatment plant.
As long as the wind is blowing in the right direction, you'd never know you were in the middle of Van Nuys.
That garden is right down the street from my house.
Two new ones I did yesterday. Took a drive up to Calico and snapped a few off.

I haven't done an HDR in quite some time.
This is with the 14mm at f/2.8 and ISO 4000.
Is HDR dead?
I like the colors and styles it brings to the table, but I also feel like I'm "cheating" a bit because it can make an ordinary photo look better than it should because of the wow factor. Having said that, I still like to play around with it and use it. Makes for unique imagery.Quote:

The most important filter that should be applied to an image is the filter in your head. After that, who gives a **** how it was achieved.
I meant is it dead within the LGK photog's community.
With me, it has lost its novelty. The one above was the first one in quite some time that I've put together.
Honestly? I'm just too lazy to process the HDR. And, I can't figure out how to shoot the bracket images on the D200.Quote:
