Well I wrapped up the post work on the Greenwood family pics from this weekend. They had a ton of fun with the camera and were game for anything I wanted to try with them. It was a fun end to the summer season.

Lake Mary Trail - Wasatch Mountains Utah

Took some great shots on a hike I did this week up above Brighton in the Wasatch Mountains. This trail goes from Big Cottonwood canyon up past the lakes and over the summit then drops back into Little Cottonwood Canyon with Alta and Snowbird.

Swung by the dried salt flats near Great Salt Lake and took this capture as a storm front rolled across the western skies. The storms this week have provided some stunning cloud textures.

I've been itching for a bit to get out in the corn fields for a sunset photo now for a few days. Tonight I finally had some time and a storm system had just rolled through leaving a nice pattern of clouds for the shots ... I am pleased with the final shots.

Panorama Southwest of Salt Lake CIty

On the way home tonight I took this shot from the air park south of Salt Lake City just after sunset.

It is the first Panorama I have tried and I had to manually stich it in Photoshop because I don't own andy good stiching apps.

I think it turned out decent though there is still some faint imbalances between the stiched images.

Well I came across the young couple who were taking pics of one another while in the gardens at Thanksgiving Point. I offered to take some pics of them both together. This is one of about a dozen I shot for them in various locations.

While looking for fun shots to do some HDR work in the garden, I spotted this young bride posing as I peeked through a hedge. I thought the hedge would frame her nicely.

This was another nice HDR that I was pleased with from the gardens. This shot was taken after dusk with 5 images on my D200 mounted in a flower bed. I really need to get a wide angle lens though as all my shots have been done with a 70-300mm NIKKOR.

A fun HDR I snapped in the Thanksgiving Point Gardens tonight. This image was taken about 50min after sunset but there was still some ambient light in the sky. Image shot with 5 bracketed shots.

Evening Storm HDR v2 - First HDR Image!

Originally uploaded by ToddKeith
Well I'm pleased with the final image. I caught this stunning shot of the setting sun busting through the broken cloud layer. I uploaded the orignal image to my flickr site as well as the inital HDR image which I ended up masking and blending with the untouched image to create this composition.

This image was shot with my SONY Cyber-shot if you can believe it. Whoever said you had to bring out the big gun cameras to pull off a great shot?

Enjoy!
