Working With Legends
Posted on 08. Jun, 2008 by Terry Reinert in Photography
This weekend I had an opportunity to go to St. Petersburg Florida to attend a two day martial arts seminar instructed by Bill “Superfoot” Wallace with my karate instructor and some other black belts in the studio. It was an amazing weekend and it is going to take at least a week or two to fully digest all the new material that I soaked up at the seminar. I will post some photos of the event soon.
I took my camera and all my gear (of course) with the intent of going out and finding something interesting to take photos of. My instructor and good friend Robert Louis Vanelli had the same idea. We, along with two other students of the studio that are interested in photography, woke up before sunrise and went down to a park facing east over Tampa Bay to shoot. There were a few sailboats mored just off the seawall that I took some shots of. I used the same settings as usual for my HDR shots… 3 exposures 2 stops apart with the aperture and shutter speed set to get a good exposure on the middle photo. I processed the resulting HDR photo in Photoshop and Photomatix.
The park we went to happened to be a small park right next to the Museum of Fine Arts that my wife has been wanting to go to for years. This wasn’t planned… but that didn’t stop me from snapping a few shots of the museum to make her jealous. She didn’t believe my story that they have free admission on Sundays and that we got to tour the exhibits. It was worth a shot…
Across from the park was a really neat looking hotel as seen in the photo above. Not much more to say about it.
