There is this amazingly long bridge that is just upstream from Brant Park here in Brantford. I wanted to shoot it with the Sigma 10 - 20 to make it even longer. If you look back in my photostream or in my sets you can see this same bridge presented in different ways at different times of the year. This photo is a HDR experiment to see how true to life it could be done but there is still that halo giving it away that it is a HDR. After I processed this in Photomatix as flat as I could I exported it to Aperture to breath some life into it. To me it's not about accuracy of reproduction. It's about high initial impact and feeding the eye what it wants to see. ~~~ Thank you Iris for this: i knew i saw this bridge before didn't look as long from water to shore your clever ways did a neat trick you truly possess creative schtick the lines from the bridge and reflected glow add to the dimension of the depth below if you walk down the bridge and gradually ascend you might see randi's blue rainbow at the end Â© 2009 Iris Zuares ~~~ twistedcreations says: Randi's has always told me if I don't hear from him he's either dead or in jail. :-) I'm posting this on Randi's behalf. He's alive and well but the same can't be said for his computer. He will be back when his custom order 24 inch iMac arrives in about ten days. He wanted me to let everyone know. ~~~~~~ you can stop wondering why no new photos abound because now i will explain that and what i have found there has been an illness, a computer attack and randi had to order a new custom imac it must make him annoyed and anxious to no avail but it's a lot better than him being dead or in jail Â© 2009 Iris Zuares
