Leadville Railroad Water Tower

I guess I'm going to have to go shooting this week end so I have some new material.  In the mean time here a single shot HDR of the old water tower along the Leadville Railroad line.  Taken this summer while we were hanging out in Vail, CO

Leadville Train



One of our little adventures on vacation was a ride on the Leadville train.  These are all singe shot HDR done in Photoshop only.  As I've mentioned before I like trains, so I appreciate the rest of the family indulging me.  An interesting little fact about the Leadville train; the people who own it bought it for $10.00.  They said it was the most expensive $10.00 they every spent.

Silver Dollar in Leadville, Colorado

Well, we're back from Vail.  I only took 150 or so pictures here, but I was pretty excited to see how a couple of them turned out so here's the first.  I recently purchase a couple of little table top type tripods.  I shared a couple of posts ago how easy they are to travel with.  Well it's also pretty handy at being very discreet when taking photos.  This is a three picture HDR, I went real artsy on purpose - seems to fit the scene.  There is a lot of junk in this photo, but this tavern in Leadville has been around since 1879 and they've been collecting junk along time.
