Post your HDR images:

jwilbern, very nice photo.  How did you overcome ghosting in the waterfall?  Was that a single exposure blended with others?

Thank you pierceography. I blended 6 images at one stop apart with no deghosting needed. I have not found any type of deghosting to be necessary in waterfalls or other fast moving water. I used Photomatix 4.

Very nice results.  It hardly looks like an HDR shot, which is a compliment.  I love the exposure and not overdoing the colors/strength as most (myself often included) tend to do with HDR.  Just a really great photo.  :-)

I too use Photomatix 4, so I'll have to keep that in mind with water.  I've been reluctant to shoot water, given the ghosting obstacles that need to be overcome.  Looks like photomatix handled it like a champ.

Just having fun.../ messing around... wanted to see if I could read this after HDR... 



Peace!

I hope this is the right thing to do here, but it says post images, This was my first attempt at a HDR Photo, I thought I would take it of the Sunset over the East African Port, Stone Town in Zanzibar...

It was taken on my Canon 7D, 24-105mm L IS.

Very nicely done.

Peace!

[RichardTHF]

thank you Blaydese

And like he said! very good job Orioncroft

[K-amps]

Orioncroft well done... good use of reduced saturation.

However just taking your fist shot as an example, the sea to the left is very low contrast compared to the brick on the right, so the eye pulls to the right  more...

I would experiment with a layer of a nice single exposure (one of the frames you used to HDR) and blend/ layer it with the finished HDR and mask away the HDR portion of the sea, showing the regular exposure (which would be higher contrasting)...

This is not a criticism, just something that could open new venues for you?

Here are two of mine from the English countryside.
My main aim in producing HDR pictures is..............they don't look HDR !
The picture of Conisbrough Castle is part of my work with Building Panoramics.
Conisbrough Castle was made famous in the Scott novel "Ivenhoe"

@Sporgon Lovely work, each has a lovely depth of colour without too much saturation.

Thanks for your kind comments Patrick- both these pictures are four or five frame stitches, so ( the originals) are very high megapixel, but taken on a large pixel camera (5D). I think this helps achieve the colour depth. Not sure if an ultra high pixel camera would achieve the same effect in one frame.
