Another HDR attempt...C&C

[LittleMike]

Here's my latest HDR attempt. I was out messing around in the local sand dunes and decided to take a few shots of my truck. C&C please!

Nothing wrong with the pic, except that it's of a ford

 

[LittleMike]

Normally I would agree, but I couldn't pass up the screaming deal I got on it

Not to mention it'll go dang near anywhere I want! And for places it can't go, I've got the ATV

I like it. One day I will try the HDR thing out.

The only things I could recommend are:
1. Make the truck a little bit lighter, and,
2. Send it to Ford to try and sell it to them.
Really looks good.
BTW, I think Ford makes fantastic trucks!!!

Is the glow intentional?

Everything i've read, and seen as far as C&C on HDR's...you do not want a halo around your subject.

The halo needs to be changed and it would be nice to see more detail in the interior of the truck. How many exposures?

HDR's are cool when there are no halos.

Good question, however in this case, I can say it seems to work.

 

[LittleMike]

For this particular shot, the halo was intentional. I'll edit a different series of photos and try to reduce the halo, and we'll see where I end up. It was done with 3 photos. The next one I'll try is with 7.

Ok here's another try. This one was from a very slightly different series of photos than the one in my first post. I tried to leave the halo out, although I wasn't able to do it entirely (I'm still brand new to HDR, trying to figure it out). The colors in this one are closer to the natural color as well.

I like it more with the halos remember rules are ment to be broken, an thats the diffrence between being unique and diffrent from the rest.

I'm no professional but from just looking at the original photo posted for critique and the 2nd edited version I definitely prefer the first. The truck looks great and not at all like it needs Fixed Or Repaired Daily.

Usually a glow in HDR says its overdone. In this case its overdone.

Why use HDR for this shot? Its not needed.

I love doing HDR, the correct way, but when I keep seeing these style of pictures, it makes me dislike HDR.
