Re-post November 2011
Coming up with new photo ideas (compositions) can often times be a challenge. Â Probably my biggest recommendation is take as many pictures as you possibly can. Â By doing this, you will begin to understand your cameras mechanics and will get better at composing your shot.
I took this last fall. Â I found this old barn and really liked it’s architecture. Â I typically don’t take pictures of “No Parking” signs but I liked this one.
The Windy City
Over the next few weeks you will see a lot of pictures I took in Chicago. Â We always enjoy spending time there and is probably my favorite city to visit.
One morning, I drove to Alder’s Planetarium. Â The planetarium is a great place to capture pictures of the city. Â I shot a variety of pictures with my Olympus OM-D and Leica M9. Â I think I got every lens I had out of the bag. Â This one was taken with my Leica 50mm noctilux. Â Actually, this is 4-5 pictures stitched together to create a panoramic shot. Â I used Photoshop, Nik Software HDR Efex 2 (this is not a HDR), and Silver Efex 2.
