The Gash In The Wood- Nikon D300



The Gash In The Wood- Nikon D300, originally uploaded by jjvornov.

Driving again this morning in New Jersey. I took an exit off the Turnpike and let the GPS tell me when I had used up the slack before my meeting. I stopped at an orchard looking desolate in the early light, but a bit later, noticed this odd scoured landscape in front of a housing development. I pulled the car into a side street, ran up a little embankment and grabbed this one shot.

The rendition of the D300 with Capture NX is just extraordinary in a painterly way. Exposure and focusing with everything on auto was probably better than I would ever have done manually.

Technology is finally in the service of art.

I'm an MD, PhD Neurologist who left a successful academic career on the Faculty of The Johns Hopkins Medical School to develop new treatments in Biotech and Pharma. I became fascinated with how people actually make decisions based on the science of decision theory and emerging understanding of how the brain works to make decisions. My passion now is this deep explanation of what has been the realm of philosophy, psychology and self help but is now understood as brain function. By understanding our brains, I believe we can become happier, more successful people.
