Another HDR image. I tried to make this one look more real, and just bring out the clouds more. I'm still not happy with it - I'll have to try it with photoshop instead and see if I can do any better.

I've had this old lens for a canon FD camera laying around, so I thought I'd try it out reversed. It works ok, but I can't figure out how to stop it down when it's not mounted to a canon camera.

A couple Mallards. (Anas platyrhynchos) I'm still looking for a good place to shoot birds around Brentwood. I know I saw some sort of an Egret at this spot a few days ago, but I didn't have my telephoto on me. I'm not happy with this shot, but it'll have to do.
