Acadia National Park: Thunder Hole HDR 16/52

Last one from Acadia National Park (I promise Sandy). Thunder Hole, an area carved out by water, is supposed to make a loud thundering sound at mid-tide.

I just installed Photomatix and I've been fiddling around with some of it's settings for making HDR images. This image was made from 3 images -2EV, 0EV and +2EV using Automatic Exposure Bracketing (AEB) which can be set on most DSLR cameras. There are some halo areas that I'd like to avoid and I've read that you can blend the HDR image with one of the original images, but I haven't tried that yet.

Acadia National Park: Jordan Pond 15/52

I took a quick trip up to Acadia National Park during Columbus Day long weekend to catch some fall foliage. Jordan Pond is a small lake inside the park with a trail that runs around it, parts of it where you can see the Bubble Mountains in the background. A storm had passed through the area couple days before, so there was a large amount of leaf drop in the area.

Waterfalls 14/52

It's a small waterfall, but I've been wanting to try this smooth silky effect on the water. Took these shots with a polarized filter to minimize reflections.
