This is an HDR photo (7 images of differing exposures, combined) to capture both details in the shadows on the deck as well as the highlight details in the landscape. I had my camera set on a tripod with my f-stopped to 22 and the shutter ranged from speeds of 1.5 seconds to 1/200th. In other words, Harley had to be very, very still. The colors may be over saturated but other than that, I believe the image to be fairly true to the scene...except of course, in real life, I would be sitting in the rocker, feet propped on railing, with a glass of red wine in my hands, enjoying the deck days of summer with my gal pal.
