Galveston Trip Spring 2010

All Pictures in this post were taken with a Canon 40D using the Canon 10-22 EF lens.

Bishops Palace Galveston HDR

The Bishop’s Palace HDR was taken with three exposures at EV 2,0,-2 and tone mapped with Photomatix. The clouds were layered in from another picture I took. The Palace also needed some lens correction to compensate for the angle the original picture was taken at.

Galveston Sea Wall West HDR

This is one odd looking Beach House.

I had to crop this image in some as it was taken from inside my car. The HDR still came out well considering the three exposures were hand held.

Overly Dramatic Wooden Poles

I think photos like this are kind of amusing. You see a lot of pictures similar to this turning something boring really dramatic.

Lots of Bird Droppings

Found these Pelicans just hanging out on the back of an old beat-up fishing boat. The Pelicans couldn’t care less that I was there and let me get pretty close. The deck was literally covered in bird droppings. I don’t think this boat is used very often.

Old School Red Phone Booth

You just don’t see too many of this type of phone booth anymore, at least not in Texas. It’s too bad the actual phone on the inside is a modern one.
