Sunset HDR's at the Refuge Tetras

I've been catching up a lot on the HDRs from the trip this time and half to go back to the first night sunset. Here are a few from that evening ...

Last of New York

Here are the last three images from the New York series. The first two were from a "museum" close to where the cruise launched from. The USS Intrepid aircraft carrier was a short walk away and a perfect quick walk while waiting for the cruise to start. The first image was of one of the neatest things on the deck ... the Space Shuttle "Enterprise"!!

Here are some of my favourite images that I've made from New York; photos from the "Top of the Rock" in the Rockefeller center. We decided that we would either go up to the lookout from the "Top of the Rock" or the "Empire State Building" and finally decided on the former. This way, we had an 'unobstructed' view of the Empire state buildind as well as Central Park. Don't forget to head over to Flickr to see all of the images from New York (that I have released to date).

Here are a few more from the cruise around the harbour; some more bridges and buildings!

The Final Two

Here are the final two images from the "Haunted Hotel" series here. There are actually these two, as well as two others that are left but you will have to go to my flickr page (link on the right) to see the other ones. Enough of these posts have been dedicated to this place.

Waterfalls are Back

Here are two more of the Chalet Waterfall series. Only a couple more left from there after this and then we go back in time again.

In the mean time, a couple more articles of mine are published up on Bright Hub. Learn how to install photoshop filters and learn how to merge to images in photoshop! This week I'm working on a few articles regarding shutter speed. Stay tuned.

Views From the Cabot Trail

These three images from the Cabot trail were taken on the western loop of the trail not too far north from Cheticamp.

Neil's Harbour Lighthouse

Due to a lack of time here, you only get one image today. We've finally made it to the series of images from the Cape Breton Trail. This one is of the lighthouse at Neil's Harbour.

Louisbourg Lighthouse

Here is the installment 1 of 2 of the images from the Louisbourg lighthouse. This was the site of the first lighthouse in Canada, which was completed in 1734. The foundation from the second lighthouse on the spot is still visible today. The lighthouse which is presently there was built in 1923 and eventually destaffed in 1990. Now it is a popular look out point and the start of a coastal walking trail.

Louisbourg

Louisbourg, now a National Historic Site in Cape Breton, used to be one of the most extensive and expensive European fortifications in North America. Passing from French to English (and then back to French?) hands several times through the course of history. Here are three images from our trip over to Louisbourg when we were in Cape Breton this summer.

Pike's Peak 2/2

As promised here are the final images from the Pike's Peak summit demonstrating the breathtaking views from 14,115 ft above sea level. The first image shows the winding, 13 mile, hiking trail that goes up the mountain. If I ever get back to Colorado Springs, the climb up Pike's Peak is a priority. The second image shows the Western view of Pike's Peak (the side opposite of Colorado Springs). Finally, the other side, the Colorado Springs (East) side of Pike's Peak is shown in the last image. If you strain your eyes you can even see the Garden of the Gods' red rocks in the upper left hand area of the image!
