Friends of us planned to send off their daughter for a redeye flight to New York, so we went to the Oracle HQ to watch the July 4th fireworks of Foster City. That meant no traffic jam after the fireworks to head to SFO, the San Francisco International Airport.
I processed a balanced HDR photo from a RAW exposure, then desaturated the image, and added some vignetting.

After I posted the previous photo I though, hey, this likely looks cool upside down. What do you think?
I applied HDR processing to bring out the micro contrast - notice the texture of the ground.

Happy Slider Sunday! Saturday morning started with a -11F sunrise and the day didn't get any better. Within a few hours the skies clouded over again and by the afternoon another snowstorm arrived. Three exposure HDR processed with Nik HDR Efex Pro 2

Last September we spent 2 1/2 days at a camp with rocketeers in the Black Rock Desert in Nevada. One evening we went North to see a natural hot spring. We stopped to take this sunset scene.

What do you think is more fun, the anticipation of a trip or the trip itself?
I took three bracketed exposures but used only the bright one to get the walkway in motion. The RAW image has enough dynamic range except for the bright reflections in the glass.

On my birthday in January we walked along the coastline of the city of Santa Cruz. I positioned myself on a big rock to witness the sunset. I got very close to the edge of the rock, expecting and fearing some water gushes from big waves coming in. Just in case I had the cheap kit lens on the camera. And bam it came. I tried to protect the camera from the salt water. I succeeded to a certain degree, but that left a finger in the frame. This is the cleaned version - see original version below.
I processed a balanced HDR photo from a single underexposed RAW exposure. The RAW file enabled me to fix the lights using the curve function. RAW images have a much higher dynamic range, over 12 f-stops at 100 ISO with the sensor I use.

Crypt, Cattedrale di Santa Maria Annunziata, Via Basilica, Otranto (LE), Salento, Puglia, Italia
The crypt running under the apse dates back to the original 11th-century church.
This crypt is a miniature of the famous Cistern of Theodosius or the Mosque–Cathedral of Córdoba.
It has three semicircular apses and forty-eight bays interspersed with over seventy columns and pillars.
It is especially marked by supporting elements from ancient and early medieval buildings. Its surviving frescoes cover a range from the Middle Ages to the sixteenth century.
*******************************************************************************
La cripta, che si snoda nell'area sottostante dell'abside, del presbiterio e di parte dell'aula, risale all'XI secolo ed è una miniatura della celebre Cisterna di Teodosio o della Moschea di Cordova.
E’ suddivisa in cinque navate allineate da 42 steli di colonne, altre 23 colonne sono addossate alle pareti. Le colonne assomigliano a tronchi di una foresta pietrificata, che richiama l’elemento dell’albero nel mosaico, e danno una sensazione di smarrimento. Le colonne sono sormontate da capitelli con raffigurazioni simboliche , fantastiche, grottesche e tutti diversi tra loro.
La particolarità è nella diversità degli elementi di sostegno, provenienti da edifici antichi e altomedievali, dal vario repertorio figurativo.
Di grande pregio gli affreschi superstiti che abbracciano un arco cronologico dal Medioevo al Cinquecento.
