Couple from today...........

The Mother Ship



Staring Into The Abyss

I really enjoy your interior shots. You have developed quite a unique style with this type of photograph. Critique? Your clone job on the direct sun is very intrusive and noticeable. The cloning on the "glass" is pretty poor too. You could spend the better part of a day trying to get those two spots right, but it would certainly be worth it.

The second is excellent, I can't believe how big that boiler or whatever it is, is.

I have not cloned anything in or out?? The highlight I guess your refering too............not sure how to get rid, its a rim sky light in the building, even at -3EV its still there and bright

There are two distinct gray areas I am referring to. One is just above the 3 button switch, and one is on the glass to the right side just under the beams. I wish I could zoom in more and see what they are, but it looks to me like an airbrush job gone awry. Maybe it's there and just looks fake. The clues I thought I had were the blue halo around the one on the glass and the way the gray covers the red beam above the switches.

Great Photos !!!!

What is it ?

[daq7]

They are absolutely superb. Do you mind if I ask how you do them?

[draymorton]

Agree with EOS. Those two gray areas (and the blue stuff surrounding the rightmost one) detract.

Second shot is great.

[Frog]

First is good except for those gray things.
Second is very dramatic. Nice stuff.

Wow.. these are some amazing photos..

[daq7]

Yeah there is a spot of really eggregious noise in the first one what should be processed out, but even with that it is amazing.

Love the hdr work and the subject matter. Great location. Is this in a facility in Belgium?
there is another photog I came across that seems to have taken a whole series of shots in the same location

I agree about the spots of bright area that you tried to eliminate. If you cannot reduce its brightness, and i woulod assume it has lost all detail info, the other way about fixing it would be to replace those white spots with image next to it by cloning in new info. Add pipes, metal detail, whatever to fill in instead of having faded gray spots.
excellent work

This is in the UK, but I know Bousure he and a few others were over here in January and done this and West Park, I was with them at west park.

BE CAREFUL...Coming from someone who knows. Have somebody with you and a cell phone. But I love the pictures and I also agree that a couple of hours of PS cloning would work wonders for the first. If you don't mind could you share your technique and processing.
