The F number is the aperture. It sounds like you kept the aperture constant and varied the shutter speed. I'm not sure if this is "true HDR"...
Louisville Cardinals vs. Rutgers Scarlet Knights (College Basketball) These definately aren't pro quality sports shots but I wanted some...
That's a weird shaped piece of ice you found there. Great shot, it had me confused for a bit. I thought it was water at first...
$200 polarizing filter? :confused:
Sounds like good advice to me. I'm by no means an expert on this but Canon and Nikon seem to offer a lot of the same stuff in terms of lenses...
I love the dog and there are some pretty artistic nature photos up there as well. The Japanese Tea Garden looks like a beautiful place. :) Just...

I agree with what has been said. Cool shots, my favorite is definitely #5. I'm going to have to plan a visit to my local zoo sometime... Just...

Welcome to TPF. :) These are some nice shots. Here are my suggestions: 1. Number you photos so it's easier to refer to them. 2. On #1, did...
