A Thin Red Line – Boynton Beach Inlet, Florida.

Last April when I ordered a Lee Big Stopper filter I never imagined it would have to wait ten months to actually get it. To be honest I forgot that I had even ordered one. For those of you who don’t know what a Lee Big Stopper is, its a 10 stop neutral density filter. Basically its acts like a sunglasses for your camera lens. Well in this case, its more like welding goggles. This was photos exposure was somewhere around 1-2 minutes long. I really like how the filter makes the waves look flat and like there is mist around the rocks.

Outography - WOW! Look very nice.

I wonder how the original looks like. I check out the example people did using the filter. It’s amazing to see how the cloud move …

I love the color on the rocks! Nice work.

My Ugly Photos - I did add some saturation, as usual ;) mainly the moss covered rock. I fixed a few ghosting spots and added a bit of sharpness. In all honesty the original is not much different then this one. I will try and post the original tomorrow.

Eden - Amazing! This is really awesome.

Mark Neal - Nice HDR Ryan. I like your perspective and color treatment. And that small red thing (looks like a light) on the second window up makes a good color focal point. :)

Roosevelt Bridge – Stuart Florida.

I took this photo of Roosevelt Bridge in Stuart, Florida over the weekend. The Purple neon in the back right is a place called The Sailor’s Return. This was the first time I ever took photos here and I must say I have really been missing out. I can imagine how must the sunset must look from here they must be unbelievable.

It’s good to the be the lead rhino… Until that sudden stop!!! – Lion Country Safari

I have been saving this photo for a long time. For months I have been trying to come up with a great caption, but in the end I used the first caption I thought of.

What would your caption have been? Can you come up with a better one?

The American Merchant Marine Memorial in Battery Park New York.

The bronze statue and boat of the American Merchant Marine, by artist Marisol Escoba. Apparently this scene is from an actual event where a WWII Nazi U-boat attacked and then while the boat was sinking the Germans stopped and took photographs. You can read more about it here.

In my opinion this photograph really illustrates the strangest thing you can passably see while visiting New York City. The color of the Hudson River! They say it was worse than normal because of the runoff from hurricane Irene, but I don’t ever recall hearing good things about the Hudson River and the way it looks. Actually it reminds me of a George Carlin quote.

“When I was a little boy in New York City in the nineteen-forties, we swam in the Hudson River, and it was filled with raw sewage! We swam in raw sewage, you know, to cool off!

And at that time the big fear was polio. Thousands of kids died from polio every year. But you know something? In my neighborhood no one ever got polio. No one, ever! You know why?

Cause we swam in raw sewage! It strengthened our immune system. The polio never had a prayer. We were tempered in raw sh**! “
