The other morning I came here to a little park by the bridge. Bridges like this make living on small islands possible for people without boats. Everybody wants to live on an island. More at goo.gl/LLfcuc
Last week we were in Malaga for a day as our ship made it's only port of call before crossing the Atlantic. As luck would have it, it rained cats and dogs, which was perfect for my purposes.
I like shooting at night, but if I have to take photos in a European city during the day, rain is my next best friend. It puts everyone a little out of sorts as they rush to and fro with umbrellas. It also creates that nice sheen on the ground to add a little extra something to the image. The only catch is you have to be willing to get wet, which I did, beyond a reasonable doubt.
I had been here previously when I was about eleven years old. When I saw the section of the city that faced the port, little bubbles of long lost memories began to percolate. My conscious mind has long folded over those early years, but it would've been nice to have an old photo to help free more bubbles. Nevertheless, I was struck with the desire to return and explore a little more. So I will plan on that, and when I do, who knows what I might uncover.
This picture was 3 exposures combined in AuroraHDR with a Lindale preset applied in FX Studio CK.
Then I transferred into Pixelmator and made a duplicate layer which I rotated 180 degrees and applied a Dissolve Filter. Then I rotated it back and in the process mis-aligned the exposures.
This picture is a bad dream which should be used as a warning to all young people of the dangers of Champagne! Pour me another glass Darling!
You can see the original in my Photostream or you could pour yourself a glass!
Visit to Concrete City with fellow photographers: Curtis Solanick, Brian Bukeavich, Lewis De Joseph, Marty Straub and Dave Cohen.
Since purchasing MacPhun's new HDR software, AuroraHDR Pro over the holidays, I made sure to capture plenty of bracketed exposures to jump head-first into the program (I've used HDRsoft's Photomatix Pro dating back to late 2006)

On the day I drove up to Tibidabo, it was raining and foggy and cloudy and, generally, a great day for photography. Even though I had a GPS, I passed it several times; the fog was so thick you couldn't see more than a hundred feet.
Anyway, when I got here, I walked around, literally in the clouds. Tibidabo is a popular attraction on top of a mountain, but there were only a handful of people here; I think there were more employees than visitors.
I could see some of the attractions but not altogether. It was hard to get s sense of the place, I had to piece it together in my mind. I would walk up upon each attraction and have more of the puzzle. As I walked around, I felt like a ghost.
It made for a fun excursion, but it mirrored the oddity of the park itself. It felt like being in some strange dreamlike universe where things were not as they are in the waking world.
If the weather isn't right, it usually means there could be some interesting photos, and that's why I went. I'm glad I did; had I gone when it was sunny, it would have been a lot of people, and I think it would have been a much more mundane experience.
Single exposure tone in mapped AuroraHDR with a Deep Sunset Preset.
