Three more that I have archived.

The chair is actually a simple three exposure HDRI made at an abandoned dogtrot cabin here in East Texas. The second is of the linkage attached to a driver on an old retired Mikado that is on display in Marshall, Texas. The last is a pelican that is napping and I just wanted to see how far I could push and still retain texture in the white feathers.

All were shot with a tripod mounted 20D and different lens's.

I hope y'all enjoy,

Ziggy

I like # 1 the best. Being a Northeasterner however what exactly is a dogtrot cabin as opposed to any other kind of cabin? I have never heard that expression before.

A dogtrot cabin is a cabin consisting of 2 rooms with an open runway porch between the middle of them. It would have 1 roof over the whole cabin. The dogs used to run through, hense, dogtrot or dogrun. There is a dogtrot cabin on President Johnson's home place at Johnson City, Texas.

Thank you. I am always curious when I hear an expression unknown to me.
