McGees Mills in May
I walked down the banks of the Susquehanna river to get this shot of the McGees Mills covered bridge. I used a R-79 red filter to get the infrared effect.

Niagara Falls State Park
View of the upper Niagara rapids. I used a 10X neutral density to slow down my shutter to 2 sec. to blur the water. I also made a two exposure panorama of the scene and merged the images together in Photoshop CC.

On a recent trip to the Washington County Museum of Fine Arts I took a few indoor pics. The lighting can be challenging because the room is a lower ambient color temperature ( 3400K ) than the skylight color temperature (5250K ). The trick is to balance the two light sources to make an image close to what the scene really looked like. You could take two separate images at each color temperature and blend them together in Photoshop. I didn't have a tripod with me so I only took one picture and blended my image with Aurora HDR Pro to get the same effect.

High Key Portraits
Proud grandparents with their three grandchildren portrait. I used the Nikon CLS feature for this shot. I have one SB600 on a David Zeiser shoot thru umbrella on camera right at +1 power. One SB600 bouncing off the white wall behind the camera at -1 power and one SB800 bounced off white ceiling over head for hair light at 0 power. All three flashes are triggered with a SB900 on camera used as a master to the other remote set flashes. With this system I can control the light output of each light to get the rounded modeling on my subjects and still maintain good light on my subjects faces. Nikon D3, iso 400, 1/160th at f-11.

I used twenty one images focus stacked in Zerene Stacker to make this image. Iso 80, f-8 at 1/400th sec.
