Re: Post Your Best HDR Photo
Thanks Gregg. The fronds were easy because they were dry and there was no wind. Lucky. But I took another shot in this series and it had ducks in it. They must have been expecting bread and all came swimming over while I took my exposures. In PP I just blended the exposures normally but to account for the movement I dropped the center exposure onto photomatix and did as single exposure HDR with the same settings as the three exposure image. Then I masked these ducks over the blurred ones. Worked well so I

Subject matter on the above photo isn't the most interesting but I thought I'd share a campsite I stayed at when I was at Arizona. The sunrise was beautiful!

Here we have Sand Dollar Beach in Big Sur, CA. I believe this HDR consisted of about three 30 second exposures.

Re: Post Your Best HDR Photo
Great shots everyone!
Hey Gregg,can you postthe link to your 35mm duel the the death[] comparisonon Picasa? I lost my MD 35mm f/2.8 (Great lens BTW) and have a 35mm sized hole in my lineup[:P] Although I do have the FD 35mm f/2.0 S.S.C which is not converted yet but I can holdit to the mount and use a very high shutter speed,it'snot very sharpwide open at close distances. I know it's not 100% accurate but I have done thatto my other lens and it's veryclose.I got the lens for free so I don't have a big insentive toconvert it.
Eventually I want to get a FF bodybut that willbequite a while from now, but I don't mind because myFF primeswork great on 1.6.
John.

Re: Post Your Best HDR Photo
Here is my first serious attemt at HDR. I used DxO's single shot HDR feature, actually works quite well. But the noise can get out of hand in a hurry!
[img]/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer-Discussions-Components-Files/13/5265.IMG_5F00_0838_5F00_DxO-reduced.JPG[/img]
MD 24mm, f/8, ISO 800, 80th sec, highlightpriority,tripod.
The highlight priority featureworked great for thissingle shot HDR, trying to expose without it was a huge challenge.
Some more in the works.[]
Cheers,
John.

Re: Post Your Best HDR Photo
William, those are some fantastic HDR's...great composition and colors. Not overdone(like I do sometimes..check out my Kauai thread down the line somewhere...)! Have you tried converting some to B&W at all yet....give it a try? You can get some really amazing results doing that. I might as well bring back some of my older HDR's, since this thread is getting really busy!!
Here are a couple from Italy last year...here goes...
Constantine's Arch next to the Colloseum...1D4,24-70L, 5 exposures..
