The images that are chosen never cease to be remarkable in some way. Rare moments, human emotion, nature, world events, and artistic creativity are among the elements that can often be seen side-by-side in the Daily Dozen. Unique is probably the best way to describe the shots in this feature.
It's fun to see some fly fishing subject matter in the mix today. Brika, the sweetheart pup of WorldCast guide Casey Birkholz, is posing on a wooden dory in today's picks.
I've been asked if this image was done using HDR software, and the answer is no. I achieved the effect using a neutral density filter, an off-camera strobe diffused through an umbrella, and some light burning of the clouds in CS5.

ReplyDelete@ArkanSpey & EMB - the comments are much appreciated. It's an honor and a lot of fun to see this shot in the Daily Dozen. Brika is a great boat dog and it's cool to see her on up on stage.
Beautiful shot all-around! Dog, setting, and even boat! What make/model is that?
