    A visit with an old friend.

    I took Friday off to make a trip to one of my favorite spots with a fellow photographer. This is a small state natural area called Pewitt's Nest. I have posted a few images from this spot over the last couple of years, but here are a few more.

    These are all awesome! Beautiful place there.

    #4 looks like an abstract and my favorite is #5.

    Thanks for looking and taking the time to comment everyone. Just out of curiosity, can you tell which of these images are HDR?

    "Just out of curiosity, can you tell which of these images are HDR?"

    No. Refreshing. I would guess the last one with the bright sun shining on the opposite bank is the most likely to benefit from HDR. - TF

    Re: A visit with an old friend.

    All nice except maybe 4(sorry).
    I think the last one is the hdr because of how even the light is. If not its number 3.
    Nice stuff....love the soft feeling.
    Keep Shooting!

    The last one is an HDR, created using Photomatix Pro, then tweaked in PS.
