This shot is from a recent worship night he and others led at <a href="http://www.thehouseonline.ca/">The House</a>. It was an excellent night of music, and I really enjoyed the opportunity to be there with these talented musicians and worshipers.

Between work and picking up my daughter from school I had an hour, so I headed over to Kinsmen Park. It's one of my favorite places to go, as it's always so quiet. The sun sets pretty early, and this was just towards the beginning of it. It wasn't so spectacular in person, but just the process of capturing the image brought out some excellent color. I love it when that happens!Bradenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17109986364934635088noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5358179721123493637.post-88141160113714722552010-11-04T21:11:00.001-07:002010-11-04T21:11:48.199-07:00Mission Creek<div style="text-align: left; padding: 3px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/bradenwilsonphotography/5147868758/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4049/5147868758_051309e7e4.jpg" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" alt="" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/bradenwilsonphotography/5147868758/">Mission Creek HDR</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/bradenwilsonphotography/">scion46</a>.</span></div><p>Once of my favorite places to wander in Kelowna, I shot this a while ago. It's three exposures combined to bring out more detail in the highlights and shadows, usually known as HDR or High Dynamic Range. For my first attempt I'm fairly happy, but I've figured out a few tricks for next time. <br /><br />Not having much time to shoot right now means that I'm going back to photos I've made previously, putting in a little work to those that would benefit, and working on my editing skills. I'm also studying up on posing my subjects, to help them look their best in front of the camera.</p>Bradenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17109986364934635088noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5358179721123493637.post-51408618310152482182010-10-19T13:01:00.000-07:002010-10-19T13:01:00.182-07:00On the WallYesterday I received some prints that I ordered from Whitehouse Custom Color.

It's not going to be much, but might work better for me than a blog, since I find I'm not a writer. The problem is I'm not really sure what I would want it to look like. Oh well, little by little I'll get it worked out.Bradenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17109986364934635088noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5358179721123493637.post-17678116521653468562010-09-04T11:59:00.000-07:002010-09-06T08:55:46.620-07:00BeginningsWelcome to my blog. As a young photographer, I'm slowly learning the ins and outs of the arts. I enjoy practicing on my beautiful kids and my wonderful wife, but at the same time I am also looking to move beyond this. <br />
<br />
If you're in need of some family pictures, acting headshots, or you have a small event or show you would like covered, I would be happy to assist you. You can see examples of my work on Flickr and on Facebook, just follow the links below:<br />

I'll be posting links to my event galleries as they are put together, and I may write actual posts every now an then, although I'm far from being any kind of a writer.Bradenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17109986364934635088noreply@blogger.com0
