Both are nice shots... so diffeerent yet both nice! Sounds like you had a good time.

I'm having a devil of a time with Nik HDR Efex Pro, which is suddenly crapping out on me. I shot about 40% IR, 40% HDR and 20 percent regular stuff. It looks like it'll be at least Monday before I can get some tech support on the Nik issue (I've tried everything on their website), so for now I'll be getting through the IR stuff.
Here's my favorite so far - Princeton University Chapel
And one of Nassau Hall, which I may go back and play with some more.
As I'm processing my images I checked on the metadata to see which of the photos is eligible for submission and which aren't since I shot some stuff before the walk, and wouldn't you know it, while my cameras' times were sync'd with each other, it was done back in March, when DST wasn't happening - and the cameras don't adjust themselves for Daylight Savings Time!! So, I have metadata that technically puts half my photos "before the walk".
I'm going to ping the walk leader this morning, but ain't that a PITA?! I know I can shift the time in Lightroom, but do you know if that is traceable in the exif data?
As always, fantastic shots, Jake!
Personally I struggled a lot yesterday because the +/- settings on the D90 are backwards from the D600 (I use aperture priority mode). I tend to view the scene and dial in over or under exposure ahead of time, and I kept dialing it in the wrong direction. :cower: Plus if I were to have the D600's full frame, I would have been more comfortable--I just haven't gotten used to the crop factor after learning on 35mm. How I wish I had the D600 with its wide angle lens capability to get a better perspective on the building shots.
That first shot looks kind of spooky in IR!
Can't you just go into the menu and reverse them?
My three favorite HDRs from yesterday. I submitted the hammock as my official entry - it is a five image bracket processed in Photomatix Pro. The brick archway was also a five image bracket that was purposely heavily processed for dramatic effect in Photomatix Pro. The memorial is a single image processed in HDR Efex Pro.
And one of Nassau Hall, which I may go back and play with some more.

Not sure how I feel about this one:
