Short walk on a long bridge.

It was such a gorgeous day yesterday, my wife and I took a stroll across the Ben Franklin Bridge. Ever since I moved here I've always wanted to do this. Now I can say I did it!

Train to Jersey.


Having too much fun with HDR!

That is a great series. I love bridges, and you do this one justice. I really like the third one, with the train to Jersey. And I love the HDR! Very cool looking, and although I don't usually like it overdone, it works there.

Thank you very much! Yes the hdr is a bit over the top. That's why I said I was having too much fun.

Thanks Hugo! Starting with the camera, I used the Bracketing function to get 3 different exposures of the same shot. Then I placed the 3 images into Photomatix Pro to create the HDR. Then finished it in Photoshop with minor level adjustments and resizing for the web.
