    HDR - Island of Capri - Italy

    Heres a shot from the trip to Italy from a little while ago. I still have yet to process the rest of the photos. finished about 1000 of the 1539 taken.

    This is a 3 shot HDR from the Island of Capri in Naples, Italy.

    If you have any suggestions to improve this, please feel free to modify the shot to get your point across!

    Thanks!

    The land and water turned out great and I like this shot a lot.
    The sky seems to halo or blow out around the edge of the trees and especially at top left.
    That being said, it doesn't distract or bother me and I just wonder why that is.
    Thumbs up from me.
    Keep Shooting!

    the sun was just out above the frame. I guess the HDR captured the colors in the darker range of the clouds, but also mixed some brighter tones in too.. The day was quite hazy out as well, which probably accounted for the gray sky

    Thanks for the input.

    Nice shot. I find myself wanting to see more of the sky but understand you having to compose there due to the sky. The object in the bottom center grabs attention and poses more questions than answers. If it were a nice house or such I think it would make the photo more quaint. The HDR came out very interesting.

    I really like how the sky and the land in the background turned out.

    I really like this HDR. If you hadn't said it was a HDR, Ii wouldn't have even guessed! I love the composition and the colours!
