Real quick and dirty, spent most of the time on the damn power lines!............btw, that lens has some pretty noticeable magenta fringing issues which one did you use?

I think +/- 2 EV on the second one was excessive, half that would have been fine. It made for some weird curves and color shifts

Deleted.... To call someone's work ass is immature (see below). If it's not your taste maybe don't comment.

Probably just personal taste but I find the HDR way overdone on these. Perhaps we just have different philosophies when it comes to using HDR. I use it pretty much just to open up detail in shadow areas and preserve detail in highlights, at the same time trying to stay as true to the original as possible.

I really like these..... Can you tell me how you arrived at these. This is where I'd like to see some of my photos being. Right now I'm stuck at the point where my images look more like sketches. To my untrained eye these are somewhere in between..... If that makes sense.

Thanks!

Hopefully you are joking too.. these look like ass!

This is the norm for VIP... realism doesn't even enter the picture!

Cgipson1 - I have put up with alot of your IDIOTIC posts. Your opinions are weak and I have no respect for someone who is as arrogant as you!!You may not like my style but and that's fine but, calling it out as ass??? This just shows that you are in your own little world and you talk like you Have done ssooooo much better than everyone.I have seen your Flickr site and a lot of it is freeken boring. Pictures of bugs and ugly ass cats...pink white people, get a life you freak!!

I am sorry I was not aware that you invented photography and it's only one size fits all. Maybe I should look under some old wood and take pictures of termites maybe that will make you pop a rod......Get your mouth all watery!!

Your a punk and a troll all in one, I got it your a TRUNK!!!

Sorry OP but, I am not going to let a TRUNK like Cgipson1 treat me like that without saying something back...

>vipgraphx Sorta sad that you can't see that your overcooked images are neither realistic or artistic. Just my unsolicited opinion.

It's not sad, I am aware of my processing and it is what I like. I know that it maybe overcooked and unrealistic , and that's what I am going for. There are many many people out there that like this certain style of HDR processing, that is why attracted me in the first place was this style.. What is sad , is that there are people who can not respect that and call people's work ass!
