Everytime I look at this picture, I'm thinking "I LOVE HDR".......

Can You understand this???

 

This is another shot from Canterbury Cathedral...

Love HDR and how it brings out the color in leaves

The barn on the left is a historic barn that I photographed and posted a shot of a few days ago. I went back trying to decide if I should crop out the truck but then of course, that would lop off most of the historic barn.

 

The owner informed me the barn on the right is a new barn and I was pretty amazed they found an architect to do such a nice job at matching this pretty well to the historic barn. October 16 is supposed to be peak Autumn season in New England but as folks can see in this shot there is very little foliage colors to speak of.

 

So...just when I thought things were getting better, lately it seems to be all downhill. I shot this at multiple exposures to get the detail in the barn with higher exposure shots. This is 2 exposures blended in photoshop as I am trying to learn how to do this since I don't particularly love HDRs. Still, I got noise again because it was still a low light time of day so I lost detail in the buildings when I had to clean the noise. Of course, having to go with a very low f-stop doesn't help to get a sharp image in landscape work. Someday, I might get it. Or maybe, it might be time for me to get a real job. Walmart is usually hiring :P

 

Last but not least, I did this several days ago but due to the loss in quality, idk, I think it is pretty much a scrap. I guess I am posting this just to see if other's feel the same way, that is with the soft focus if I should wack that delete key on this. :)

A non-hdr for a change :) so hopefully i didn't disappoint those who loves hdr...just for a day at least :P

 

I actually didn’t realise that this tower structure lights up with blinking lights at night. When I first saw it, I was excited of cos.. oh well, I get excited over everything actually… even when I failed my exams in school many years ago! Heart pumping with excitement to see what ‘nice’ treatment I’ll be getting from my mom back then haha! Anyway this is the first shot I took instantly when I first spotted it along Melbourne yarra river. My theory now is – rather shoot wrongly than not having the chance to shoot at all :P . just in case it decided to go flat on me just like the previous case of the water fountain shot! Damn still can’t forget that! Haha! TGIF! Let’s celebrate with bling bling!!

One of my first HDR, I am still in the beginning ,but I love HDR effect.

I used a little bit of texture to make the photo more yellow. (Texture thanks to Jerry Jones)

 

HDR image processed from 7 exposures with Photomatix Pro.

 

Seen and captured some weeks ago at Lake Louise when hiking with some good friends.

What a lovely day!

internet sourced image made into 3 jpgs (-1.5, 0.0, +1.5) run thru CS3 hdr. Three combined layers and topaz effects to finish it off.

The last shot of the day. The sky was much darker than the previous capture.

No other photographers around!

Presented for those who loves HDR and where details counts.

Sometimes, taking a car photograph is a simple point and shoot...and then, other times, it's more complicated because you have to capture the personality of the car. That's the case here...the personality of this old Lincoln is in the CHROME! The bumpers, the trim around the lights, the grills (and yes, that is plural), the mirrors, and all the other chrome accessories...that is the beauty of this automobile!

 

Three bracketed photos were taken with a handheld Nikon D7200 and combined with Photomatix Pro to create this HDR image. Additional adjustments were made in Photoshop CS6.

This is why I love HDR as it really makes images like this one pop without much effort. The blue lights around the sign really have popped when this was converted into a HDR. This is one of the best situations for this type of photography.

It's been years since I processed an HDR shot. I used to love HDR and every photo I uploaded would be over processed, at the time I thought it looked great but my photo style has changed over the years.

 

This photo has had the full works, HDR then snapseed and then Lightroom.

 

Just a quick change from the London photo's.

The new HQ of MACC (Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission), with a really boring sunset haha.

I was scouting around Putrajaya for a new photography spot then I discovered this spot, sadly sunset was not impressive enough on that day, will definitely go back next time!

I love HDR :p

Mono Lake is hard to describe. You have to go there to really wrap your mind around all of it. The scent of the salinity and brine in the water. The colors. The history and peril this location has faced over the decades. It is a high desert gem all of its own. These Tufa formations attract millions of visitors the year round. It is definitely a photographers paradise. It is sad and beautiful all at the same time. These formations stop growing after they have made contact with the atmosphere. All of these were under water at one time. To stand on them. Climb them with hand and foot, is to damage what was once a thriving micro environment untouched. They are beautiful to behold. If you ever head out to Mono Lake, please be careful to respect what nature has created over the millennium. Thanks!

 

To sit along the shoreline is to lose one's self completely.

This is my final post of reworks in this series. The original composition of this was generated using HDR. I've since then been studying alternate post processing methods. Don't get me wrong, I love HDR processing when it is not overcooked. I wanted to see what I could do otherwise. A personal endeavor of mine. Constructive criticism and comments are welcome.

 

Thanks for looking :o)

We love to walk in the Montgomery Woods State Natural Reserve located near Ukiah in northern California. On that day it was raining, it was a mystical experience walking beneath the giant redwood trees.

 

I processed this older single exposure photo into an HDR photo - trail and moss are paintery, trees and water are soft & smooth. I think it conveys the feeling at that moment. I love HDR, it allows me to express myself.

This is my non-HDR photo. Every time I edit pictures especially those landscapes that are not HDRed, I am reminded why I love HDR so much. I know it takes time to process them but it's the output that I am after.

 

The day I shot this was another day when I wanted to capture the waves crashing on the rocks. I only got a handful of them.

Shot RAW and processed in Camera Raw.

In photoshop,

Applied the lens correction filter to get those horizon straight.

Adjusted the colours blue, red, yellow and orange.

Altered the curves.

Adjusted the brightness/contrast.

Finally, adjusted the levels.

 

Enjoy your Monday!! :)

Not my usual work. Although I'm trying a few new things lately. I don't want my pictures to have so much processing......of course I still love hdr.

 

I've also got an ace in the hole, I'll upload it sometime next week.

 

Cheers and have a great weekend

This is the side of a very interesting abandonded boat in Maramba, Oas Albay, Philippines. I just love HDR and the “grunge” treatment especially for these types of weathered and forgotten subjects. I ended up bracketing 5 exposures at 1 stop each. The shot processed in Photomatix and Tone-mapped for the ‘grunge” look.

This was actually first set of pictures taken on this Saturday trip. Yes, I must say set as this is another HDR with 6 images. Not the easy one as while shooting and processing I had fight with lens flares – beauty of shooting into the light. Sky was still cloudy and worked out this way. I have used one of the techniques that Trey Ratcliff ( Stuck in Customs ) was talking in a podcast.

www.prophotoshow.net/blog/2009/04/14/pro-photography-podc...

This is not shot podcast , it's over an hour. Photomatix as a premier HDR software has problems with daytime sky. This was really showing where the sum was. I used one of underexposed ( I think -3 ) and dogged the that section of the image from HDR . Please let me know what you think – you critique is always welcomed.

I wish you all great week !

( PS , I could shoot so much more and maybe get descent at it … but the job … that thing that helps getting the toys , take so much time away from playing with them )

 

Below is the image #4 of 6 more less “0” exposure – the reason why I love HDR. It let you look not what you see but what it could be …. much more fun , more creative. Are we photographers or maybe we are visual artists … I don't think that anyone should be force to choose.

How can I play anything else ...

This capture is relativly close from what I had the chance to see on that day. I LOVE HDR =D

This is a relatively old shot, taken in Goose Island. I love wandering around here, as it mixes up some urban grunge between some really expensive nice places. With that, I tend to feel a little safer walking through here with my camera by myself.

I love HDR, simply put. but it's a dangerous technique to enter in to, as it can so easily be overdone, overused, abused, and just plain ruin a photograph (hell, I look at shots of mine from a short while ago and am appalled at the crap i processed). but, I just love how it can transform an image to enhance contrast and details, and provide increased depth. I felt it fit well with the urban feel of this scene, so I went all out and had some fun in post here.

This is a shot from Schloss Schönbrunn. The weather even was so kind as to give us a beautiful sunset as it had been grey all day long before.

But we didn't let us get down by the bad weather. Instead we took the opportunity to visit the exhibition of some of the pictures of Andreas H. Bitesnitch - one of the most famous act photographers of the present. He is in fact from Vienna :-)
