New pics, HDR technique.

[mob]

Hey guys, not sure if you guys have heard of hdr. Its when you take three exactly same picture but at 3 different exposures and then merge them together. We decided to put my buddys 20D to the test and this is how they came out. Car was VERY dirty but oh well.

lol MOTHER F'ER yea yea I still dont know how to fix it, its something with my bumper that it dosent line up I think, its not the bumpers or the latch.

And ther setting was perfect, cause of ernesto.Though in person the clouds didnt look that threatning, its all in the hdr.

damn thread jackers ^ lol.


those pics are nice, i just prefer to keep them as realistic looking as possible...to me those look more like paintings...which isnt a bad thing, just not what im going for

 

[mob]

yea those are really nice, I really like the pepsi and the bridge one. I havent expieremented with doing the hdr in photoshop yet so i was just relying on this douche ^^^^ to do it, but he likes the real looking pics with alittle affect to them, i like the all out hdr's ill have to pull out the diggy and do it myself! haha

what program do you do this in?

i just bought a new olympus e-500 will it do this style too?

 

[InfraRed]

as long as you can manually set the exposures than it should.

i take the 3 different pics and then i use photomatrix to merge them and tonemap them, and photoshop to sharpen and resize.
