Figured I'd dig out some work to show folks: it's been a while.

Recently I've done some jobs involving HDR (merging bracketed exposures) even for fairly simple images such as this (documenting a new office for an architect):

(it's only the outside view that needed the extra work)

Given all this HDR work I've gone back to revisit some of my Africa work from last year. This merged shot overlooking Tarangire NP from our accommodation at dawn took my fancy:

And to finish this post off, I found this shot from within Tarangire (it has the highest concentration of Elephants _anywhere_):

I only see one :) Do I have to go crossed eye before the rest appear. :lol: :lol:

Out of interest were you just using photoshop, manual or a program to do the office HDR ?

As with Craig .... the rest must be hiding somewhere. :)

Do we need to know a secret handshake or something?

Yes, but it's concentrating really hard.

Ok, ok, they're not always concentrated in exactly the same spot. But if you look around you will find more!

I tried using just CS3, but I've been getting my best results out of Photomatix Pro.
