Galveston – The Elissa

I have been doing quite a bit of HDR imagery using Galveston locations.  We were down there the weekend of the 8th.  I didn’t really feel in the mood on Saturday morning but then remembered we joined the Galveston Historical Society. That meant we could get into The Elissa for free.  So, I decided to go down to the harbor and shoot a little and go on The Elissa and shoot.

In looking at one of the magazines, I saw a picture take roughly in the same place as this.  Only, it was a night photograph, and all the winds glowed brightly.  It was an effective picture, and I would like to try a similar thing at some point, but this was just take from behind Willie G’s looking back at it.

While we were in the harbor, this fishing boat came in.  It made an interesting subject for an HDR image. Then I noticed that a woman on the boat was quite busy dealing with the catch and got a nice picture of her.

We then went over to The Elissa and walked around the ship.
