Nuanced, shadowy, interior, B&W conversions with split toning.
Snapped in June '09 at Kerry's Blacksmith Shop, corner of William and Clinton (Hah!), Delaware City, DE. Handheld, 17-40mm f/4L @ 40mm, f/4.0, 1/50, ISO 3200! It is very dark in Kerry's.
Vindicator Mine, near Goldfield, CO. October '06, TS-E 45 f/2.8 on the 5D, f/8.0, ISO 400, 1/4 on the Gitzo.
Leadville, CO, Elevation 10,152. Heading to Colorado on Sunday, not likely to break a mile high though. Denver bound again, unfortunately likely Denver tied.
Falcon: 24-70mm f/2.8L mounted on 5D, f/8.0, ISO 400, 55mm, on the Gitzo. Two shot HDR sandwich.
Beatle: 24-70mm f/2.8L mounted on 5D, f/11.0, ISO 400, 51mm, on the Gitzo. Two shot HDR sandwich.
So... the SO tells me she has reason to believe she (Graceland perhaps) is actually from Kansas — despite the MA in her passport. I am on the road again and since, unlike Dorothy, she has never sullied her ballet (ruby) slippers in The Sunflower State, I offer this snap from the American Roadways gallery on Smugmug. Just off KS 177 - Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve, Flint Hills, KS in November 2007. Highly dependent on RRS and the Gitzo.
A solitary tree waging the unwinnable war against grass. The longest running conflict on the planet. More
One more HDR production. NikSoftware had a webinar today on B&W HDR. Featured a shot from Eastern State Penn in Philly. Have lots of those on hand, thought I would try one. Looks too good in color though to make into a B&W. Pretty good looking for HDR snap series. From March '10, 5D Mk II @ ISO 200, 35 f1.4 @ f8, three snaps, on the Gitzo.

Same camera configuration, same HDR, bad, complex color cast so Silver Efex 2 and finally a Color Efex Soft Focus to subdue the crunchiness.
