HDR
It is spring and the trees are starting to bud and leaf out. It was an interesting day with strange lighting and lots of wind. I decided to try a little HDR photos. Here are two of my attempts.
This one also goes with my series of trash in nature. It is terrible how people have left their trash everywhere destroying our natural areas with filth.

I’m glad I found your blog! Does Laura have one somewhere that I’m missing?
About this post, it is interesting to me how land that is considered public is often the most dilapidated. It’s the old “Tragedy of the Commons” situation.

People don’t care about other’s property, and especially property that is owned, not by a person, but such vague entities as “government.” When property is not owned by anyone who has an incentive to maintain the value of the land by keeping it clean- the problem quickly gets out of control.
You and Laura posting your HDR images have inspired me to attempt some of my own! I’ve never really tried it before, but I love the effect. Also, I’m not sure why, but I absolutely love that you did an HDR image of trash! That is awesome
