About This Website

This blog is intended to showcase my pictures or those of other photographers who have moved beyond the pretty picture and for whom photography is more than entertainment - photography that aims at being true, not at being beautiful because what is true is most often beautiful..

The wife and I were out wandering around yesterday looking for property. In our travels, just down the road a piece from our house, we came across this little number, pro-filmic moment-wise - quite serene and pastoral.

Post pro-filmic moment and after picturing, we moved farther on down the road a piece to have dinner in the oldest inn in the Adirondacks (proudly serving the traveler since 1808). In its heyday the inn had a very large hotel which played host to 2 US presidents and to John Brown's wife while his body laid in state across the street in the county seat (which, obviously, was before his body lay a-mouldering in the grave at his homestead in Lake Placid).

straight from camera or photomerging (HDR type)?

No HDR - just a little bit of work in Lightroom on the shadows and highlights.
