Day 128 [5-7-2016]
An abandoned tour! My job allows for me to do many things. One of which getting to explore abandoned property and take photos of it with my friends. My dad took us to a huge abandoned factory which turned out to be absolutely beautiful. After our abandoned adventure we set off on our own adventure to a large camera store north of Boston which had so much more than we were expecting. We went up to the Sony booth and tried out all of the new G Master lenses along with some of the others that Scott and I have been fanboying over for quite some time. We are both avid Sony users but don't own a single Sony lens which is something that needs to change soon. Luckily more and more Sony lenses are being released so owning one is becoming closer to a reality. We ended our night with a few beautiful long exposure locations and ending the night on an earlier note than we have been for the past few nights. All this adventuring has been fantastic and such a great experience. Being back home is so much better than I could have ever hoped.
Can't wait to see what the next day brings!

Porthole... Anti-ice processing. 4 hours of waiting of permission for takeoff. 8 hours of flight. Yesterday was a long exhausting day. China wasn't ready for snow. I'm very happy to be home despite the fact that here is also snowing. #snow #byebyechina #china #beijing

I thought it might be of interest to show how I process my HDR shots and how it transforms the original photos.
Here is the process I used for one of my last photos, "Bamboo Forest" :
- First, I take 3 shots from the same position using the bracketing feature of my camera. Here I bracketed at +-3EV because the sky was very bright and I wanted to capture it in the best conditions. Turns out it was not enough because even in the -3EV shot, the sky is still a bit burned.
- Then, I use Photomatix to merge the three shots in one HDR picture and tone-map the HDR into an LDR picture. The tone-mapped picture allows to see at the same time the bright and dark areas of the original shots. A lot of settings are involved in the tone-mapping process and the result can vary from natural to very artificial looking. I try to always keep my processing natural.
- Finally, I edit the tone-mapped picture in Lightroom. Here, the picture lacked global contrast and was not well framed (when looking near the edges, the eye could be drawn out of the picture). So I finely tuned the exposition and contrast curve, added a bit of sharpness and the last touch was a soft vignetting, darkening the edges but not too much.
I am quite happy with the result !
