Great pictures, have any others? Where is this cemetery located?

[MacGyver]

Those are really cool. I think I've been to most of the veteran's cemeterys around the south for funerals over the years, but have never been to the one in Chattanooga.

My Dad rests there.

Beautiful pictures Strick!

Do you have a specialized camera for that? The reason I ask is I am about to don my uniform again (retired in 05) for a very good friend who is about to be buried at Ft Rosecrans in San Diego. He passed today at 12:15(Pacific). I would love to be able to take a few pictures like that after his service in near future.

You'll need a DSLR camera, a sturdy tripod, and some flashes preferably.

To process the pics you'll need sotware like Photoshop or Gimp.

For the HDR pics,you'll need an HDR processing software like Photomatix, followed by PS, or Gimp to help further develop the details,lighting and whatnot.

And the most important thing is the time it takes to do it.

Gotta take allot of pics(was once told by a very good photographer that the quality comes out with the quantity) with various settings,and angles, and spend even more time picking out the best of the best and processing them.

If there's anything I can help you with,just let me know

I dont have a DLSR camera, so I guess that wont be happening for me. Thanks for the info, though. If you happend to be in San Diego in the future I would gladly compensate you for a trip to Ft Rosecrans. Those are some awesome pictures!
