Grant'd Old Mill

[willis_927]

Title should say Grant's...

Theres an old water mill not far from my house I went and took a few shots of. I went there a few weeks ago as well, set up the tripod, turned on the camera, only to see "no card" error come up on the display.... lol :thumbdown:. So this time I was sure to bring everything with me.
Anyways, I am pretty happy with these for the most part, although there is some blown out spots. Let me know what you guys think, and how I could improve these photos. Thanks for looking!

"The watermill known as Grant's Old Mill occupies the site of the Red River Settlement's first mill built in 1829.
It was established by Cuthbert Grant who was the leader of the Metis at the Battle of Seven Oaks. Grant's Old Mill is on a tributary of the Assiniboine River and is the final incarnation of multiple previous mills that were washed away by frequent floods."

Cool place and great shots - I really like #1 and particularly #3.

#2 and #4 the HDR effect is a bit overdone for my taste, especailly with the halo-ing going around around the trees and buildings

#3 very nice the rest way over PP for me.

1 and 3 are great shots. Love the HDR but I think it was overcooked. If you could still lower the effects, those are great photos.

I like the scene.

Thanks for the input. I agree for the most part that they are over cooked. Pretty new to hdr, so I got carried away with those little sliders! haha
