Thread: A couple of HDRs

    A couple of HDRs

    These are a couple of HDR shots where I live. I used my Canon 60d and processed the lake shot with Photoshop and Lightroom and the sky shot with Photomatix & Lightroom.

    Hi there...

    Not sure if you're looking for C+C on the images, or just sharing? I do a little bit of HDR myself -albeit not very much. The images you've posted are very, very small. I'd hate to comment on something that I can't really see. Off the top of my head, I'd say the HDR processing looks ok - not over the top, or over-cooked.

    Welcome to CIC, it would be nice to be able to refer to you by your real name, so if you could go back into the settings and add it along with more or less where you are. This would help if you want to know where you could get something as would not want to tell you to go to northern Scotland it is a very nice place and you could stop to talk to Donald, but if you were in New Jersey it would not help.
    Another thing please go back and read how to post an image because if it is as thumbnails then a lot of people just pass on bye. The images are too small to see well even when clicked on still way too small.
    Hope to be able to see more images in the future.

    Cheers: Allan

    Have a guess :)

    Re: A couple of HDRs

    Would be great if you could make images at least 1200px along the longest dimension (I usually go for around 1600px). Attachment space here is limited -- definitely a better idea to link them from somewhere like Facebook or a dedicated photo hosting site like pbase.com.

    Just had a quick peak at the first image -- it doesn't look like HDR to my eye (no apparent detail in the shadow areas). How many images did you shoot in the HDR bracket of shots?

    Both these shots have some tilt to them, I think. It's particularly evident in the second (look at the utility pole). Once I perceive lean in an image, my ability to appreciate it otherwise seems compromised. Fix the lean and I think some of the merits of these will be easier to see and appreciate.

    I'd have to agree with Andrew, the images are a little too small for good comments.

    As far as Mark's perception of tilt, I'd pretty much agree. But you know, it just might be interesting too see how the first photo would look tilted even more, enough to make that top cloud bank horizontal with some empty sky above it. Might not. But it only costs a few electrons to find out.

    Overall I think I'd like them if they were bigger.
