The picture is lumpy around the left headlights and grille and the front end looks lighter than the rest of the car?

might be a side effect of the hdr processing

 

[xDJ DUBx]

is that from photoshop?

I hear people talk about it but idk anything about it except for it has to do with the weird colors.

theres lots of software that you can use to do it

basically (very very basically) its like this:
you take a picture with low exposure
you take another picture of the same thing in the exact same location with medium exposure
and you take another one with high exposure
(most people who do this though take closer to 10 different exposure settings)

then you blend the 3 together to make a picture that shows in clear detail every single part...it eliminates shadow spots that you cant see into and really bright white spots that you cant see into from over exposure...and it gives some really cool pictures as a result

take this picture for example:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:New_York_City_at_night_HDR.jpg
notice that you can see in dark areas and light areas? everything has crisp and clear details...that is the result of HDR processing

heres the best example I could find, sourced from this site:
http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/high-dynamic-range.htm
(that sites got a lot more information about it as well if you are more interested)
under exposed shot:

over exposed shot:

the result of combining the two:

what I think happened above to mhrebin is between the different shots the camera got bumped ever so slightly, which caused that 'lumpyness' and strange coloration differences

Oh ok I got it now. Thats pretty cool. Thanks for the detailed explanation bro. I wanna try that out now...

 

[neox.286]

[xDJ DUBx]

Me too, I'd try it out if it wasn't dark.

[stephani3]

^ oooh MSP on RX-8's... looks good!!!

a friend did a photoshoot with HDR of me/my car/bf's evo... here's what she has edited/uploaded so far. the low res pics suck but I have to pay for the high res ones... which I may end up doing lol

 

[njaremka]

a "friend" did the shooot, and is making you pay for the pics? doesnt sound like a really good friend to me.

Very clean and nice (bowdown)

Oh and the red ms3 looks great. I like how the rim's lip plays along with the car's color.

(mswerd) you should charge her for the rights to use your car in his photographs

well she runs a business... she's giving me the low res ones for free. They will be a higher resolution than the myspace versions, these are just the ones she has uploaded so far.

yeah, it's amazing how close the red lip is to true red! it's almost a perfect match.

couple self portrait...i call it...

Me, My Wife, & IKEA...

 

[TheDirtyGoatee]

I love IKEA. Never thought about it but their parking decks would be perfect spots to take pics at... (as long as they're closed and no cars are there to stink it up). Might try that.
