Sidewalk along Winchester Road
This was the view on Winchester Road, along the south side walk looking west twards the railroad tracks. Using a tripod, I took five exposers, each 2 exposer values appart. I used Photomax pro to combine them to produce this High Dynamic Range image. Since I took this picture, the city of Libertiville took down the fence, cut down the trees, and sold the adjacent land to a condominium developer.

There is no more beautiful, fascinating place for photography than the Chicago Botanic Garden. Whatever the season, whatever the time or type of day, the Garden is a paradise for photographers.

Bristol Renaissance Faire
I took this picture of a young lady standing next to a tree. She is in focus but in the shade. The lighter background is out of focus. This all balances out the picture. I enjoy going to fairs. I try to go to this one every year. Not only do they have good food, it's a unique opportunity to take pictures.

Forevertron
This is the Forevertron housed in Dr. Evermor's Art Park on Highway 12, in the town of Sumpter, in Sauk County, Wisconsin. I took a single picture then enhanced it using Photomax pro, giving it a High Dynamic Range look. This makes the errie scrap metal sculpture even more errie. The sky that day added to the effect.
