Canon T3 - September 24, 2016 - 18 image focus stack
This image is the result of a technique called focus stacking, which involves taking a number of photos with slightly different focus, and merging the in-focus areas from each into a single final photo. I used the alignment engine and masking engine from Hugin, and hand masked a darker exposure of the background into the image.

This is an image I found while digging through my photo archive. I basically just did some white ballance for this one.

This is a photo from the Big Sucker Creek along Lake Superior's North Shore. It is actually three photos taken at different exposures combined into an HDR (Hi Dynamic Range) image, and then mapped back into the color space that a computer can display. I have been trying a number of different programs to produce this sort of image, and this particular one was merged and tone mapped in Google's HDR Efex Pro 2, which is part of the Nik Collection.
This is a panorama stitched with Hugin from 13 photos and color corrected with GIMP.

I took this image because the colors caught my eye. It was a sunny afternoon and the back lighting that it was providing was really making the colors pop. As far as editing goes this one was fairly simple, with slight sharpening, and color balance tweaks.
