This shot is similar to my HDR image of the Empire State Building … but different. This is not an HDR, and it’s a different exposure (I promise). My Dad recommended I give this treatment a try, and I must say, I really do like it. Thanks, Dad!

Hello, My Name is Michael
12Sep08Hello, my name is Michael. I play the clarinet. I make photographs. I am not trying to create some kind of oeuvre that will change your life, or build a magical consensus on our humble planet (this Pale Blue Dot). I couldn’t even if I wanted to.
I don’t have a style [...]
