New in town...

I've been active on a few other forums and after lurking for a few days, I'm finding that this is a pretty is a pretty cool place. It's good to find a forum with so many local (and not so local, of course) shooters.

So, I thought I drop a note out here and share some of my work. I'm mostly an HDR guy, but things are a-changin' the more I shoot with friends of mine. Here's a shot I grabbed of the captain's chair while on tour of the USS Hornet in Alameda, CA.



BTW: I did a quick search on the FAQ and I didn't seem to find the maximum allowable image size. I went with "L" from my Smugmug gallery, but of course *I* think that it looks better larger!

Fantastic HDR - nice finish (love the wing mirror in the top centre - must help when pulling out into traffic !!) Is this in a naval dockyard?
Cheers, Richard.

R.Jay,

The USS Hornet is a local floating museum that is permanently moored at the Alameda Naval Air Station here in the San Francisco Bay Area. There are a couple of other ships adjacent to the Hornet, but you can't get on them.

Here is more about my trip to the Hornet on my photo blog.

Thanks for the comments!

Hi Joe, and welcome to the Dgrin Forum.
This is a really cool HDR shot of the Captains Chair, gosh I can almost smell the leather from here

Do you shoot 3 images for your HDR's or more?

I love this shot the Captains Chair looks 3D and really stands out.
The warm colours add to that "indoor feel" to the cabin.

I hope you will share more of you HDR creations with us,
there are quite a few people on this forum interest in HDR.

Thank you for sharing this awesome shot,
enjoy the forum, I for one am looking forward to seeing more from you

Skippy,

Thank you, thank you!

This image was 3 RAWs shot hand-held.

I have quite a few more projects in the works, but a monitor and color calibrator failure is slowing me down a little. Both are being replaced and more pics will (hopefully) show up soon!

Thanks again,

Great finish.
