Fantastic! #5 is Stunning!

these are wonderful. When you say psuedo do you mean you are creating/saving multiple exposures from a single RAW?

myshkin · Feb 9, 2011

thanks guys

Trever thats exactly what I mean. I make 0,-2, and +2 from 1 file then run it through photomatix

works well. Thanks!

These are great! I assume you are shooting RAW, and then adjusting the exposure from there?

I like the effect you're getting in these.

#2 reminds too much of the 70s.

Hats off for #4. :thumbsup:

yes I only shoot raw then go from there

I love number 2, something about the colors that does it for me

I'm with the others, though, the last shot is awesome!

Thanks - pseudo means its not real brackets and I made the different exposure files from one file. You can do it with jpg or raw.
If you don't know anything about HDR I recommend reading about that first.
To do pseudo you would load the pic in your editing software and save as tiff. This is your 0 exposure same as what you took with the camera. Now change the exposure value to +2 and save as tiff. Then go to original pic again and set exposure value to -2 and save as tiff.
take the 0,-2, +2 files and load them in an HDR program and play with sliders till you get what you like
SOme programs to try free trials of are
photomatix
nik hdr
oloneo

Overall this is not real HDR and I recommend doing bracketed shots when possible to get the true benefits of HDR
