Dancing

I always have trouble shooting black statues.  This one is in HDR which kind of helps.  Actually it helps a lot, almost feels like cheating.  The statue is part of a water feature at the Como Park Conservatory.  I love palm trees.

Glass Fish 2010

I take this shot every February well at least I have for the last three years.  I like the one I took last year better but I chose this one to put on the blog because if you look at the door to the right of the fish you can actually see the car parked a block away.  You may have to click on the image to make it big enough to see.  This is what I like about using HDR processing for interior shots. This image is made up of three bracketed shots which is easy enough to do indoors with nothing moving.   I’ll go back again next February for more target practice with the  Standing Glass Fish at the Minneapolis sculpture garden.

A no Horse Sleigh

Sitting on the sidewalk at west 7th and Chestnut in front of Wescott Station.  It is either supposed to be a holiday decoration or maybe it is for a small child with a large dog.
