What a beautiful city to explore with my new canon 5D-mkII. I had great a day in New York with my new camera. The city is full of iconic and photogenic locations. Everywhere I went I found something great to photograph!
Since I was walking around on a bright overcast day I decided to take photos in a series of 3 images to increase the dynamic range and get the details in both the highlights and shadow areas. The 5D’s rapid shooting capability allowed me to do this without a tripod, something I could have never accomplished with my previous Canon digital camera.
After merging the 3 exposures together in Photoshop I decided to give them some rather vibrant treatments to bring out the colors and textures. The results were pretty stunning, expressing well my emotions as I wandered around this great city, and creating some great moods! I am happy to be able to share them with you on my new photography blog. I took so many great shots in New York, these are just a beginning. They take quite a bit of time to get just right in Photoshop, so as I get some more free time I will be posting more…
