An apology

I new when I started this blog I would find it difficult to keep it up to date and sure enough as the summer got busy I let it lapse. Well now is the time to amend that and post some of the projects I've been working on.
The first was to photograph a golf course. I needed to shoot at sunrise (05.30am) and one of the problems with strong directional sun light is heavy contrast that a camera can't cope with. So I use a technique called exposure blending. With the camera on a tripod, I take 5 exposures from massively underexposed to capture the highlight detail, to massively overexposed to capture the shadow detail. Here is the end result.
