The bridge/viaduct in the picture is the Millau Viaduct in the south of France. It is the current record holder for tallest bridge by structural height (343 meters/1125 feet). When you look at the cars you get a feeling of how big this viaduct actually is. I shot this picture on the way back home from vacation. Had to make a massive detour to see it, but was totally worth it. The picture was shot on the 6th of March, 2011. As you can tell from the picture, it was a very hazy day, but with some Adobe Lightroom 4 magic it became much better.

This is the Mural Room in the Santa Barbara Courthouse. It was built in the early part of the 20th century following the earthquake that rocked parts of the West Coast. The setting is used for many weddings and is viewed by thousands each year.

The photograph is a long exposure of around 30 seconds but is not an HDR composite. Some fairly elementary changes in color and tonality were added.

Walking near the big lake of Etosha National Park in Namibia is this male Kudu. With a dramatic sky in the background, I thought it would be a nice descape (desktop-escape). Now don't you go register this name online! Enjoy.

The sky was looking great, but it was very windy. This image turned out a little blurry because of it, and i had to work quickly cause of the mist coming off the ocean.
