Shuttered out

· 265 words · 2 minute read

Over the last eleven days I have taken in excess of 4,000 photographs at a variety of assignments. When I haven’t been shooting, I’ve been processing, and I have more than 2,000 photos remaining to work through which will take me most of next week.

I need a break. I want to spend a couple of days at the club and paddle SUPs or windsurf. I want to download the new content for Grand Theft Auto 4 and shoot up Liberty City. I want to do anything but press the shutter on a camera or fix the exposure on a photo.

Tomorrow I just want to chill; but instead I have to go to a condo committee meeting in Bangkok in the morning, and then for a hospital appointment in the evening before driving home late. Not a restful day.

Last night, she who must be obeyed asked me when I was going to slow down and behave like normal retired people.

Not yet, I’m too busy.

I have used HDR for blending architecture shots when there are bright lights coming through windows to contend with. My arty farty efforts are less successful. I use Photomatix Pro which does the job.

Mr. Stuck in Customs is clearly very good at HDR.
