ADVENTURES IN PHOTOGRAPHY * * The official Blog for RixFotos.com. Sunday, August 7, 2011. Click on the pix for bigger views! Last week's best shot at the track was taken with a remote shutter on a mini tripod sitting in the grass right next to the hurdle where the horses jump for the Steeplechase races! Besides cropping for more of a panoramic type shot, there was quite a bit of editing done to this photo. Here's the original. There was also a distracting red helmet over the lead horse's hind quarters.

ADVENTURES IN PHOTOGRAPHY * * The official Blog for RixFotos.com. Wednesday, May 25, 2011. Today, I found a new perch for a shot of Albany (click on the pic for a bigger view).

It looks like a real city! Sunday, May 22, 2011. Sunday, May 15, 2011. Bringing out the beauty in Albany's Cathedral. To get all the deta...
