3 exposure HDR in a local cemetery.

good subject. maybe playing with the contrast and exposure would add a little drama to the picture...my $.02

I like the green on the door, but as far as the composition goes, the pic seems a little flat. I like the subject, maybe framing it differently...

Ok, two different versions with the contrast tweaked...

I like it but kind of want to see a wider view of it you know? Just feels like its really tight.

Welcome to the forums!

I like the first. You did well with the hdr and didn't overdo it.
I don't think anything needed to be done with the contrast and the hdr took care of the exposure. There's lots of texture.
If there is a problem with the shot it is that it is 'just there'. Don't know how else to say it.
With no environmental relevance or foreground or background it loses interest quickly.
Even a prop or two within the picture would peak one's interest more I think.
If you hadn't said it was at a cemetery, we wouldn't know.

I love the HDR stuff -- most of it. This is nice. Many times I like tight shots, so it's good for me in that regard. The one thing that sorta bothered me if I am going to nitpick is the hard shadow from the arch on the door. (First one is my choice) Welcome!! Looking forward to more from you!

Don't listen to the crit. The first one is sexy enough to spend a weekend with.

I hope somone spends a three shot hdr on me when I am in a local cemetery.

I like this a whole lot, the stains and verdigris on the copper door are cool but imo as already stated needs another element to take it to the next level, possibly someone sitting on the step. I can imagine Daq choosing a crypt like this.....

Pretty cool find. I think the crop on the top is a little tight, I would have liked to see a bit more of the stone. Thats pretty minor. The one thing that bugs me the most is the shade line in the grass at the bottom. The grass is mostly in shade except for a bad of brighter grass. That said, its still a pretty cool shot.

Other than skewing it straight I think I wouldn't change anything. I like it as is. The colors are wonderful.
