first attempts at hdr

[cmm7v3]

just some scenery outside where im goin to school, used a combination of photoshop and photomatrix

hdr is hard to do with motion in the background unless your camera can shoot in bracket and take 3 shots at once with different exposures..

but they are looking good so far

soooo....someone want to explain what hdr is? The shots look amazing, but how did you get there?

HDR (High Dynamic Range) Images

some look a little cartoony (esp. the forth one), but it's a great start.

s*** just google it... you need a camera that you can set the exposure on and photoshop or photomatrix i think...

side note... i want your car!

Those aren't that cartoony compared to other programs such a Photomatix.
Very nice first efforts

we should start an HDR thread since so many people are getting into it.

In theory, you can make an HDR image with a moving subject. It involves using one base exposure and using PS to simulate the other exposures.

This is not HDR-related but for water scenes, I suggest experimenting with an ND filter. You'll get a blurred flowing water effect vs a still frozen water scene.

i would like to try and get better, clearer shots but i just have a canon s5 sd so i dont think i can get hardly any filters for it the still water shots like you said

Your S5 can do manual mode. You can change ISO and shutter speeds right? Use that!

Sorry for being a picture *****, I'm working from home today since we got a huge dump of snow and there was no way I'd make it in to work.

As mentioned, the S5 is a damned good point and shooter so don't feel bad.

I'd be rocking it right now if I wasn't such a Leica fanboy.
