Boise/Bannack
The first photos were a couple of shots I took at Bannack Montana. I was not able to take as many photos this semester because I was a T.A. responsible for helping and had to model for the class in their photo shootout. The second set of photos are from a Trip to the Penitentiaey in Boise Idaho. It was an amazing day with a beautiful sky. We also stopped at the Idaho State Capital.

I edited both in Camera Raw: I lightened, added contrast, sharpened, bumped up the vibrance and exposure. ...

I shot these photos in Macro Mode. I then adjusted the Original image using and Adjustment Layer Levels. Then I placed the Texture image on top of the Original and lower the opacity. After I lowered the opacity I applied a mask on the Texture image and removed the texture from the bottle and the hat and then lower the opacity even more on other areas of the background.

This was so much fun, because I have never done HDR before. I took these photos using my Auto Exposure Bracketing (AEB). Each photo was taken using my tripod and self-timer so I had the exact same photo with, but just different exposures. I set my exposure to be -2, 2, +2. Then I pulled all images into Dynamic Photo to combined them into one Photo, that way you see the textures and contrast of the three photos all in one.
