I had to stop by briefly to post some new photo's. We've been shopping for years for art (photo's and paintings) to hang on our wall, and decided that we have all the photo's we need to make our own. Even subtracting the price of a new wide format printer and frames, we came out way ahead!
I call this photo simply "Why?".
My wife sitting way to close to the edge.
Near the half way point on the Bright Angel trail between the trail head and the CO river.
A Hawaiian party!
Sunrise over Monument Valley!

I really love the sunset pic! I so want to vist the western part of the country again some day.
We have many dozens of those pics from the days we stayed there. The Navajo tribe run a hotel where all the rooms face the same direction, guaranteeing a great view no matter what room you have.
This particular photo was taken with an ancient Canon Rebel XT using a 50mm 1.4F prime lens in bracketed mode (-1, 0, +1 exposure). Then combined in Photoshop CS5 and a number of tweaks performed using Noiseware noise removal plug in and onOne's Phototools plug in.

I figured you were pretty serious about photography after seeing your cameras in the pics. I am a huge nature freak and just love landscape shots, especially sunsets. Would love to see more anytime you care to share. Thanks for sharing.
Those are great, RW!!! I love seeing personal photos enlarged and framed. That's what we've done with our kids. I've always taken passably good shots, so I have them blown up into 11x14's or 16x20's and have them matted and framed. They're much more interesting than formal studio pics. We've only done formal family portraits 4-5 times.
