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.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">For more information on HDR or High Dynamic-Range photography and the program I use, Photomatix Pro 3.1. Photomatix Pro 3.1 is a standalone program and also has Plugins for Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">You can also subscribe to Outdoor Photograher by clicking on the magazine icon below.

It includes the towns of Rockport and Gloucester and is home of The Second Annual Lobsta Fest and Seafood Extravaganza! The photos in this gallery were also shot in Essex, Magnolia and Manchester by the Sea. Autumn in Massachusetts may be the best in the country. Some of my favorite locations on Cape Ann are Plum Cove, Lanes Cove, Rockport Harbor, Gloucester Harbor, Rocky Neck, Atlantic Road, Halibut Point, Buswell Pond, Annisquam, Lobster Cove and Hoop Pole Cove. All of these locations afford excellent photo opportunities. I would love to photograph Cape Ann in the winter but, the weather is too unpredictable. So I will have to leave the winter photos for my brother-in-law, Todd Harrington, of Plum Cove Photography, who lives in Gloucester.</p> <h3 style="text-align: center;">Click photo to view photo slideshow</h3> <p style="text-align: center;"> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://dougniedermillerphotography.com/dnpgallerys/CapeAnn/index.html"></a>Many of the photos in this Slideshoe were processed in HDR.

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.</p> <h3 style="text-align: center;">Click photo to view photo slideshow</h3> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://dougniedermillerphotography.com/dnpgallerys/nor_easter/index.html"></a></p> <h3>Search our websites!</h3> <p> <script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script><br /> <script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></p> <h3>Map of the Cape Ann Massachusetts</h3> <p><a class="a2a_dd addtoany_share_save" href="http://www.addtoany.com/share_save"></a> </p> </article> <article> <h1>New England</h1> <p>Doug — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 17:42:18 +0000</p> <div class="tweetmeme_button" style="float: left; margin-right: 10px;"> <a href="http://api.tweetmeme.com/share?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdougniedermillerphotography.com%2F2009%2F06%2F03%2Fnew-england%2F"><br /> <br /> </a> </div> <h3 style="text-align: center;">New England Photos</h3> <p style="text-align: center;">Most of the photos in this sideshow were taken on Cape Ann, Massachusetts.
