High Dynamic Range

Monday, May 18th, 2009

3539799951_5b3d4d7a34_bI’m very excited because this weekend I bought a new lens for my camera (I have to take some photos for work this week and I didn’t have the right lens) and got to test drive it on Sunday.

My husband and I were walking downtown DC and we happened to walk past the Portraiture Gallery. He said “Let’s go in” and I was just going to use the rest room and then keep walking.

Seriously though: museum visits? Me? Blah.

But he wanted to see this exhibit and that exhibit and he wanted to go upstairs and downstairs and there was a really interesting photography exhibit so we ended up on the third floor where the grand ballroom used to be. They had some sports exhibit there and my husband wanted to see it.

So when we walked in we saw this amazing corridor with mosaic floors - really breathtaking. You can click on the image to see a few more that I have taken and then immediately went home and edited them as HDR (aka high dynamic range photography) which I have wanted to try for a long time.

Thanks hubby for making me go.
