Defying Gravity (9)
Just defying gravity... :P
HDR taken from 1 jpg!!
Photoshop: You might recognize the effect as HDR, and you are right. Even though I dont have a camera that takes RAW photos, I decided to use the curves in photoshop to create a brighter version and a darker version, and I made a HDR with photomatix out of 2 exposures. Turned out so nice that it didnt need any photoshopping afterwards anymore. Difference between this version and the original is that in the original the sky was slightly overexposed and the beach and water were very dark. Also my face was almost a silhouette in the shadow, because of the bright sunlight.
This latest series of photos was taken in Kiel, in the North of Germany where my grandparents live. We went to the beach and I suggested to make jumping photos. I had never expected some of them to turn out this nicely.
