A Couple from the Weekend

[Bynx]

Rain and sun, weather for taking pics. These are from the Haliburton region of Ontario.

The first two are almost three-dimensional. Perfect exposures.

This is the way I like HDRs.

It was a wild weekend Barbarian. Heavy rain one minute, then the sun out the next, until the next heavy rain. Getting back to the car was an adventure every time. And of course, we drove during the sun and shot during the rain.

Glad to see you back posting in the HDR forum Bynx, love your work!

 

[Bynx]

Thanks pixmedic. I guess the old adage, those who can, do. Those who cant, just badmouth Bynx. Anyway, it was nice getting out to take just over 600 pics and will be processing for a while.

I like #3 the best, lovely!

#3 - you have a magenta hue in your rock area and that water is blown out and also has a magenta hue.

 

[FanBoy]

Realistic, even lighting to the pictures. I like the detail in number three. A great find!

#3 - you have a magenta hue in your rock area and that water is blown out and also has a magenta hue.

That purple look is exactly how that spot looks. The bottom layer of rock is dark purple and gives the water the same purple reflection as well as a dark bottomless look because you cant focus on anything. The water might be blown, but I thought I covered the exposures. I never got any blinkies on the whitest areas of the fast flowing water.

Excellent as always. First two definitely capture the nature aspect. The third one seems kind of "magical" to me, I really like how you captured the water! For the last one, how did you get a still shot of the water shooting HDR, does de-ghosting work THAT well?!

Really like #2. Favorite of the set.

The composition of #1, dead center vertical and horizontal, is not super interesting to me.

#3 is a home run. The 3d look is fantastic. #2 is a very close runner up. #1 is centered horizonally and vertically, but I'm not sure if there would be a better choice given the shape of the subject. All very nice

 

[Bynx]

I wish there was more to play with when I shot #1 but for a composition, I thought it was the best way for the symmetry. Here is another one, 2 - 5 shot HDRs for a panorama.

DGM, for the fourth shot I didnt use deghosting. I just processed it. How Photomatix works will always puzzle me. But it worked here ok. By the way, the water is the white stuff, all that black is rock with just bits of water flowing over it.
