Old Barn


I created this from an old barn picture I had that I took right here in NC. I used the HDR method of course. Then I used some burning, dodging, and blending for this effect. I enhanced the red and yellow. I also used a grey layer for the clouds. Here is my result. I love North Carolina.

HDR Images







Here are more HDR pictures here at Slocum Pier in North Carolina. Slocum Pier is located in Cherry Point in the city of Havelock. It is a beautiful place to go if you are in that area. It is located on a Marine base. I used an HDR action on them to get these effects.

I took these pictures at Parris Lake, Diamond Valley Lake, and Lake Elsinore in California. They were beautiful. It was a little cloudy. I used LucisArt and Dynamic-HDR. I had a wonderful time.

Dan Kuns decorates his own shop. He created all the artistic effects in the shop like the volcano and elephant you will see when you go inside the shop. He has a creative talent. Hes also known for his tattoos. I recommend this shop for people in the Twenynine Palms area who are looking from a tattoo. You can't go wrong with this tattoo shop.

The Ethel M Chocolate Factory


This is one of my favorite places to go when I go to Las Vegas!

Located in Henderson, Nevada and is the location in which all of the Ethel M brand and ethels brand chocolates are manufactured. The company distributes their products mainly via phone and internet sales, although they also operate several retail outlets located in and around Las Vegas, Nevada and Chicago, Illinois. Also located at this plant are the Ethel M Botanical Cactus Gardens and a small branch of M&M's World.

Ethel M is owned by Mars Incorporated and was named after the mother of Forrest Mars.

In 2007 the company made the transition from Ethel M Chocolates into ethels chocolate. The new branding boasts a whole new line of 48 different handmade-gourmet chocolates designed by master chocolatier Jin Caldwell.

In late 2007 the company responded to public demand for for the classic line of chocolates by re-releasing six varieties of chocolates in their retail stores in the Las Vegas area, though 16 varieties are available at the factory location.

Here is the website!
