I was told I should post some kayaking pictures. The issue with kayaking pictures is that they often are taken with so-so cameras, prominently feature other people or aren’t taken by me and thus don’t fit the requirements for *my* daily photo. But, there are some… This one is of… Continue reading
Artprize 2013 shot of the Grand River from downtown Grand Rapids – if you look close you can see the monkey sculptures hanging on the blue bridge. This one is not multiple shots, though I adjusted the tone curves enough that it is probably considered HDR. Picture taken with Canon… Continue reading
