One of my photos just made Finalist in the Outdoor Photographer Magazine Mystical Adventures Photo Contest. This photo was shot in Gloucester, Cape Ann, Massachusetts in Lobster Cove by the small village of Annisquam. Cape Ann is located on the coast some 43 miles northeast of Boston, Massachusetts. The GPS location for this shot is Latitude 42.654855 Longitude -70.674945. Click on my photo below to register to vote in the Outdoor Photographer Magazine Photo Contest. Voting is done by selecting your favorite photos and rating them 1 to 5 stars. Every time you vote you are also entered automatically for a chance to win Polar Bear Photo Adventure for two. Of course, I would appreciate a vote for my photo!
This photo was shot in autumn just after sunrise. First, I set up the camera on a tripod and shot 3 photographs at 3 different exposures; 1/4 sec. 1/15 sec and 1/60 sec. ,all at F8. Then , I imported them into Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2, then combined them with the Plugin Photomatix Pro 3.1, a program for processing in HDR High Dynamic-Range photography. This allows one to see the detail in the shadows and highlights. It also has the ability to create some pretty cool special effects. Then, I imported them back into Lightroom for final fine tuning. The camera I used was the Nikon D80 with a Nikon 16-85mm Lens and a Circular polarizer filter. Camera settings, Aperture Priority, ISO 100, in RAW format and the Lens set to 16mm.
For more information on HDR or High Dynamic-Range photography and the program I use, Photomatix Pro 3.1, click on the links below!. Photomatix Pro 3.1 is a standalone program and also has Plugins for Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2.

Cape Ann is located 43 miles northeast of Boston, Massachusetts. It includes the towns of Rockport and Gloucester. Gloucester is America’s first seaport established in 1623, some 7 years before Boston. A nor’easter is a circular storm were the winds come from the northeast with the worst having hurricane force winds. The photos in this gallery were shot after a small nor’easter storm with gale force winds. I can only imagine how bad a really big storm would be, like the storm of September 1991, which was made into a movie about the Andrea Gail in The Perfect Storm. The seaport of Gloucester has lost more than 5000 fishermen in the last 386 years.

Colorado Springs was founded by General William Jackson Palmer in 1871. Charles Elliot Perkins purchased the Garden of the Gods in 1879. He opened the Garden of the Gods to the public so all could enjoy. At his death in 1907 he deeded the land to the City of Colorado Springs with the stipulation that it be a city park and be free to the public. The park officially opened in 1909. This gallery celebrates the Garden of the Gods 100th year as a city park on October 17, 2009. four of the black & white photos in this gallery were from a book my grandfather, Arthur C. Niedermiller had. The book is (Our Own Country A Complete Picturesque America) by James Cox published about 1894. I hope you enjoy these photos of the Garden.

Part 2 of the photo gallery
The Cruise Above the Clouds Car Show on Saturday September 12 brought to Woodland Park Colorado by the Teller County Classic, Custom and Special Interest Car Club. The show featured over 200 Classic Cars, Hot Rods and Muscle Cars. This was an incredible car show. In the afternoon they went on the Poker Run to Cripple Creek Colorado. The car show continued on Sunday in Cripple Creek Colorado. Each photo in this Gallery starts off as 3 separate photographs at 3 different exposures and combined with a process called HDR or High Dynamic-Range photography. This allows one to see the detail in the shadows and highlights. It also has the ability to create some pretty cool special effects. Part 2 of the Car Show with more photos coming soon!
