Now this is what HDR is for! Excellent pictures. Between the best HDR's I've seen. Congratulations and keep posting things like this :thumbup:

#1 one seems a little tilted to the left... but it's hard to tell with that perspective. Try correcting it a little and see if it looks better. You can easily see it in the door frame. There's also some 'antena' or something in the left end of the window... it adds nothing.

#2 maybe the sky is too dark... but maybe it looks better this way haha

Regards,
LizardKing

To continue with what LizardKing is complaining about, there is not enough snow on the mountain tops. In the first pic the green tree in the middle should be about 6 feet to the right and I dont see any sign of a creek or small lake. When you fix all these things you will have a pretty good pic. Oh and make sure there is a canoe in the stream.

And what's this supposed to mean? Maybe you can clarify and actually add something here, instead of trying to be funny with ironic comments.

Both pictures are great, already said that. But I always look for things to improve in my photos, and I try to do the same when I critique other people's work. Regardless of the overall quality, there's always room for improvement.

Just goofing with ya Lizard, relax. But the only legitimate thing you said was not enough Highlight Smoothing both images which would clean up the skies. Too much magenta from not enough smoothing.

Sorry about that, not having the best day... :thumbup:

Good images OP. Ideal scenario for HDR

Excellent use of HDR.

I fixed #1: Straightened it a little, got rid of the wire & smoothed the sky. Still working on #2... The cloudless blue sky is killing me. I'm having a hell of a time getting them to look real. The Snow, canoe, and lake project will have to wait till I have a little more time!

Thanks!

Here is the canoe for ya. But I was just joking after the nit picking I read by someone else. Nice job on your HDR. Nice to see realistic looking processing.

Tomorrow's forecast: Mostly cloudy............

 

[Bynx]

Gee Sparky those clouds almost make up for the missing snow on the those mountain caps.

 

[TwoTwoLeft]

Yeah! Now can you make the look more like standing lenticulars? HAHA Stupid good weather... Last October, the Sierra Wave was going off almost every day. I was up last May and this past weekend, nothing but warm days & severe clear skies..... Bummer for photos.

Snow will have to wait. I'm too busy building the dam for the lake.
