last night lordkilljoy reminded me of HDR images. After looking around a few galleries i remembered why i fell in love with HDR back in college, but back then i never did anything with it. Mostly due to a lack of accessible software. So last night i tried making one, using the HDR converter thing in photoshop cs2. my test worked out ok, so today i went down the powdermills to get some pretty shots. (at one stage i had to climb a 7 foot wall because the trail i was on ended in an impassable mess of bramble and trees.)
so, what i learned from my little experiment is that trees do not make good subjects for HDR - especially when there's a bit of a breeze. water makes an even worse subject - especially up close. but i did get a few good shots in sheltered areas.
the other thing i learned is that you have to be really careful not to shake your tripod even a tiny bit.
anyway - here's a pic of my favourite shot of the day.
Great pics. Glad to see i was a positive influence :)
