    Around the corner

    This one is actually somewhat of an HDR, I did the layering manually in photoshop because for some reason the HDR option in my photoshop never allows me to make one cause there 'isn't enough dynamic range' whatever that is. Let me know what you think.

    I love the detail you have captured with this shot! Beautiful! I'm assuming you use CS3 for your HDR? If so, try photomatix.

    There is nothing to critique imo.

    Re: Around the corner

    Hey Ron,

    I shot this in RAW format. So I opened it in Capture NX (any software that handles RAW files will do) and exported 4 different version with different exposures. ranging from -0.5 to +1.5

    Then in photoshop I put them on four different layers and used regular masking techniques I showed the best exposed area of every photo and hence exposure through out is better than any 1 of the 4 shots that i began with.

    For example the yellow bus on the right , i used the +1 exposure layer. For the light trail, I used the -0.5 layer cause in all the other shots it was way over exposed.

    I hope that helps you understand. It's hard explaining it in text.

    Danic, no, I'm still using CS2. I've heard about Photomatrix. I'll give it a try!!

    Thanks guys!

    I like the dynamic of the photo. What I miss is some light on the top of the dome.
