    Thanks! I liked the boat exhibit too. Its all blown glass inspired by the plants and stuff around it. Some are more abstract than others thats for sure.

    can you give me an idea of your gear? Some pics I can see the HDR and others I see very little influence by HDR, did you use HDR on all pictures?

    The colors in all the pictures are VERY VERY VERY rich (Mains likey) I know you had to fight with shadows as I can see from a few of your pictures. Other than that all I have to say is job well done.

    Thanks guys! Yeah I use a Canon 5D with 24-105 F4L IS. I used a 50mm compact macro for a good number of these too. I like shooting macro stuff wide because it exaggerates angles and depth of field. The first 10 or so images are HDR and consist of about 4-6 exposures each that deviate about +/- 3 stops from "top dead center" lol. The rest have slight corrections in the curves and corrected luminance/hue/saturation.
