First attempt at HDR Photography

[JeremyD]

Here are some of my first attempts at HDR photography. I shot in RAW, and the photos were taken by a Canon T4I (650D) These shots were taken with a Rokinon Fisheye, and a 18-55mm

I know they aren't very good but I was just learning how to do it! Any feedback of how I could improve my HDR work would be awesome!

Don't add so much color, they will look better.

I agree with Mully - these seem very much over-saturated.

Not bad shots.

It doesn't look that any of the scenes had a high dynamic range.

What software did you use?

It looks like #1/#2 were 7 exposures, #3 was 5 exposures?

Most scenes that do have a high dynamic range only require 3 to 5 exposures.

Part of the skill set needed to do HDR's is knowing how to meter the scene to determine how many EV steps are needed, where the 0 EV step should be in the EV step sequence, and how big the EV steps should be.
