A long look at the lights
Shooting a long exposure of the Loop 360 Bridge in Austin, with the passing cars blurring out and just leaving light trails. That's a good way to spend an evening!
A different look at the Sydney Opera House
Today's photo is a non-traditional photo of the Sydney Opera House during a beautiful blue hour. I set up for the shot just as a boat passed by...
Bratislava blues
Here's a photo from lovely Bratislava. It was shot during blue hour there, overlooking their Old Town, and I used Aurora HDR to accentuate details adjust some colors, and more. Dive in, and also check out the video I did as well!
Blue hour at The Pearl
The Pearly Brewery in San Antonio is quite a spot. It's been redeveloped and now includes all sorts of shops, restaurants and even a farmer's market. Oh yeah, and it's beautiful, especially when you get up early and capture it before dawn!
Stacking presets in Aurora HDR Pro
Today I take a photo from Copenhagen and walk you through my workflow for creating this HDR. I use Aurora HDR Pro and create several layers in order to apply presets and selectively target them to specific parts of the photo. It may sound complicated, but it's easy! Join the fun!
Twilight in Stavanger
Stavanger, Norway is a quaint but beautiful little town. I visited last Fall and today's photos were captured during a stunning blue hour there one evening. I wandered the streets and basically had it to myself. I wondered where everyone was, but wasn't complaining. Enjoy the pics!
Bits and bobs from London
Today I share some shots from various trips to London. I have been working to catch up on these things and move a little closer with today's post! London is a gorgeous city and I hope these photos help illustrate my love of it! Enjoy!
An evening in downtown San Antonio

Sunrise on Barton Springs Road
Barton Springs Road in Austin is a little gem, with a few interesting little spots to photograph. Oh yeah, and right around the corner is our natural spring pool, too - another jewel in the crown, so to speak. Check out these recent sunrise photos and enjoy!

Boston has a lovely skyline, and I was lucky enough to be there last week and capture it during a stunning blue hour. Here are 4 HDR photos that illustrate the beauty of this magnificent skyline - enjoy!
San Francisco in blue and gold
I'm a big fan of the city of San Francisco, and always enjoy my visits to the City by the Bay. I also love the Ferry Building there, and that's the main subject of today's post.

A big bunch of Dublin stuff!
There is just so much to shoot in Dublin, and so much to love about it. I really enjoy my visits there, and always come home happy (and with a few memory cards that are bursting at the seams!). Today I share 22 photos from my most recent trip to Dublin. Lots of street scenes and pubs in this one, so beware...you might want to hop on a plane after this!
Shooting sunset on Burnet Road
I love signs and graffiti - and sunset, 'natch! - and caught all 3 on a recent outing here in Austin. It's great to travel and shoot in various spots around the world, but it's also great to shoot interesting things near home. It's easier to get there, too LOL!
Prime time in Las Vegas
I went to Las Vegas a few weeks back, and one evening I put on the prime lens and fired away! It's a small but powerful little piece of glass, allowing me to shoot at f/1.7. So I fired away - handheld only - and came back with these 15 images that I am sharing today. Take a look and enjoy!
Blue hour at the State Theatre
Here's a few shots from a trip I took last year up to Minneapolis. It's really a very beautiful city, and this was my first visit with a camera. These shots were all captured one evening during blue hour, down at their lovely State Theatre. Have a look!
Blue hour in Nashville

Skulking about SoCo at dawn
SoCo (short for South Congress) is a funky little spot in downtown Austin, and I love to go shoot there. You never know what you might get, but I'm pretty sure you can count on it being interesting. Hop on in and have a look! It's 9 HDR photos from a recent sunrise shoot there.
Blue hour at Fisherman's Wharf
I love San Francisco and find it to be a very beautiful town. In the blue hour light after a good, solid rain...well, it's beyond beautiful - it's downright amazing!
