Messing with HDR again...


This weekend was quite boring and empty, but I did try to mess around with a little more HDR
photography.  The above shot is the best one I got.  I need to find more dynamic situations to take
advantage of what HDR is capable of, so these photos were really just practice so that I can
learn and remember what to do in the future....I want to get the process down pat so I can take
some dramatic shots while in Japan.

Sony Cybershot W350 Panoramas

So in preparation for our upcoming trip to Nippon, I purchased a new point and
shoot.  I wanted something extra small and discreet, so we can shoot inside
stores and restaurants and not look like a giant stupid gaijin with a huge
Nikon rig all the time.  I also didn't want to spend a fortune on one either so I 
settled on the Sony Cybershot W350.  It comes with this gimicky feature called
Panorama Shot.  Basically, you just move the camera in a horizontal flow and
it captures everything in a half circle.  While it is a gimick, it is actually kinda
cool.

I took it with last night to our local ghetto grocery store, and got some interesting
pics.
