]]> This photo makes me laugh every time I see it. I should not even really say “photo” here but rather “photos,” you see this is actually a photoshopped image. The photographer first took the picture of the child looking over the table, then a photo of the cookies, and digitally combined them. The effect is priceless, and the picture on a whole makes you feel good inside, remembering the days when you used to liberate cookies from the cookie jar. It is an exceptional photograph.

]]> This photo is just exceptional! The photographer managed to capture the light falling on the models face perfectly! Any alterations that were made after the original capture work great as well. I am going to take a stab in the dark, and say the eyes were edited for added color, but who knows, I could be wrong. Either way, I believe it is the eye that really draws you into this photograph. It is so sharp and colorful you can barely look away!

]]> I fell in love with this photo the second my eyes were laid upon it. It is exceptional in so many ways. I love the chiaroscuro effect with the completely black background, it really brings out the orange in the flower! Also the amount of detail and focus is perfect in this shot! The funny thing is this was taken with a hand held point and shoot camera, according to the photo’s page it was a Samsung digimax a503, showing that it really is the photographer and not the camera!

]]> This gorgeous photo is an amazing time lapse photo by Trey Ratcliff from StuckInCustoms.com. The colors and details in this shot are absolutely amazing. I love the oranges of the street, and how they contrast with the orange and green lights of the buildings. Once again Trey proves himself as an excellent photographer with some amazing skills, and an excellent bag of HDR tricks.

]]> This is such a fantastic photo I do not know where to begin. This photo is a testament to the photographers creativity. What was done here is a 6 second exposure taken going down on an escalator. The whole concept behind the shot is amazing, especially that it came out so well. First, the subject sat nearly perfectly still for all 6 seconds is amazing, if I could have someone sit still for 1/250th of a second I would be happy. Second, the lighting came out so smooth, the whole image does not seem overexposed at all, it just seems to fit. Finally, the blue lights given off by the walls is gorgeous. The color plays off the glass, and the model perfectly.

]]> I really love this photo for a number of reasons. The first being the amount of detail in the black and white imagery. You have detail both in the highlights, and the shadows, allowing for a perfectly balanced photograph. The second reason this photo catches my eyes is the angles. The photographer managed to capture the best point of view to get all the staircases into view. Finally, the shot is well lit with nearly flawless lighting.

]]> This photo was uploaded by Trey Ratcliff, owner / operator of one of my favorite sites: StuckInCustoms.com. His style of photography is incredible, and I hope one day soon when this site gets a bit more traffic, to be able to do an interview with him. But for now, I will have to stick with waxing lyrical aobut his photographs. In the photography below titled “Dark Matters of The Church” Trey’s use of HDR adds amazing detail to the church scene. I feel as if you can make out each individually laid stone. His post processing is also excellent with amazing streams of light exiting the church windows, which are complemented by the amazingly blue sky above.
