The HDR master

When I continue my list there is one man that I simply can't leave out, it is one of the founders ot +The Arcanum, you guessed it, +Trey Ratcliff. He is one of the reasons that I got in to shooting HDR. I've read several of his books, seen many tutorials and bought a bunch of his presets for different software.

The pick I've chosen is:


The Bamboo Forest by Trey Ratcliff

This pic is a bit like Judast Priest would have put it "Breaking the law" with the walk way smack dow in the middle. But here it works, rules are there to be broken. You only got to know when it enhances the photo. Here you have great symmetry in the bamboo on both sides of the pathway. And the pathway as a leading line leading you deeper in to the picture. I love the use of the soft light and the processing making the look kind of dreamy, like taken from a fairy tail. 

This is a part of a quest in +The Arcanum in +Glenn Guy 's cohort, where I'm to pick ten photos or photographers that have had a profound impact on me and my photographing. This is pick number 7.

If you want to see some of my photos be sure to head over to:

Wish you all a Merry Christmas
