English Landing Park





These scenes were all taken in the same evening at one of my favorite places......English Landing Park. As you may notice, I have learned a new technique in photography. It's called, "HDR," which stands for High Dynamic Range.

Right Outside My Front Door




I love the feel of the camera in my hands. I love taking pictures and capturing the beauty around me....even if that beauty is simply a colorful tree or a cloudy sky with dark clouds. All of this and more exists right outside my front door!

Having Fun With HDR Photography


This is an example of HDR photography. HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. Because of HDR, more colors are brought out of the scene which makes the photo look more beautiful. All you have to do is take three or more photos of the same scene using different exposure settings. After that, you process the multiple photos of the scene through  HDR software.

Full Bloom







I love this time of the year when the Bradford Pear trees bloom. It's a shame that the season is so short for those beautiful flowers.

Near Eminence, Missouri













These are all scenes near Eminence, Missouri. The town is down town Eminence. I was more than pleasantly surprised at the numerous fresh water springs located in this area. I was in awe of the natural beauty that exists in this part of Missouri.
