Hello,


I have always enjoyed the feed back I get from everyones critiques whether they are good reviews or bad and I feel that they help improve my work always, so thank you all.


Recently, I have started to dip my feet in compositing photos and manipulating my photos, not by just change lighting, colours and contrast.


So in this photo I have
1. changed the water in the well by copying the main scene, inverting it and adding a wave motion to it.
2. extreme sky modifications, but still original clouds, I just recently learned about quick selection tool and refine edge.
3. I added a flag from another photo and also added a twist.
4. and a bit of tone mapping in various locations.


I have one question. Even though I used one exposure for my main shot, is it still considered to be HDR?
It kinda has that appeal to it, no?



Thank you


Seena
