I am not dead...

I have been slacking a bit on the blog. I have had to spend more time at work and unfortunately the blog gets dropped when things get crazy. If you follow my photo stream you may have already seen these shots. I have been playing around with HDR (high dynamic range) photos. I like the look that I have seen in some portraits, here is an example, here is his website. Anyways I had some bracketed shots from this summer that I was able to combine(shot below). HDR has a weird look, generally you either like it or hate it. The bottom shot was from this weekend coming back from Anchorage. Angela told me if I took pictures downstairs I couldn't post them on the blog. Now there was somewhat of a mess but I staged a few more toys to add to the chaos. Sorry Angela. There is an explanation of the shot here. Enjoy. ~Erik

I love it!! It gives it a very cool edgy look. I don't blame Angela...I totally understand...but it does "make" the picture.

I think it gives it an "art" look. Make it "sofa" size, frame it up and you have really expensive looking art! I really like it!

Well maybe not the one of Erik in the basement...good picture but not so much for the artsy effect.

Your shot's are GREAT. I'm not sure why you are still working for oil company.

It kind of looks like a painting or something. One that you would see next to a Dale Ernhart pic. Just joking. It's sweet. Bucky thinks so too.

OOoooh, this series is on my list of faves! The one with you, Eric, looks like it belongs on some massive billboard or television commercial introducing a host for some manly show =) (And by manly, I mean a 'Mr. Mom' or 'heaven help this house' kind of a show =)). Cool, definitely edgy and cool!!
