Wow.. they both are superb images..
exposed just right.. and I love the composition too.. ![]() may I ask what the DRI technique is? The last thing I want to do is hurt you... but it's still on the list...

#2 is awesome. Love the composition with the roof in the top corner. Great colours too.
I believe DRI (dynamic range increase) is the same as HDR (high dynamic range) where you combine multiple shots at different exposures. Nikon D70
12-24 DX, 18-70 DX, 70-200 VR 20" iMac Intel C2D Aperture 2.1 PS CS3 http://www.jamesrobertphotography.com
Both are gorgeous, and I really have to give you props for the second, because the underside of the roof is so intricate and you've found a way to show it without having to do the standard 'shoot from directly below' shot.

Thanks a lot!
Almost right. For both DRI and HDRI you are combining a few shots with different exposures. However the techniques are slightly different. For DRI (aka Digital Blending) you are combining shots with layer masks in Photoshop. Say you are taking highlights from one shot and shadows from another one. It's like using "graduated" neutral density filters with a custom shape. ![]() There are a few good tutorials on DRI: http://www.luminous-landscape.com/tutor ... ures.shtml http://www.luminous-landscape.com/tutor ... ding.shtml http://www.adobe.com/digitalimag/pdfs/h ... covery.pdf http://www.tofahrn-foto.de/index.php?lg=en&pg=tipps.dri For HDRI you are creating a 32-bits image from shots with different exposures and then converting this 32-bits image to a 16-bits one with tone mapping software like Photomatix or "Merge HDR" option in Photoshop. Personally I'm not a fond of HDRI as it's something artificial. And a few tutorials on HDRI as well: http://www.luminous-landscape.com/tutorials/hdr.shtml http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutori ... -range.htm
