Another one from memory lane

As with yesterday's post this is another set of pictures I took for HDR processing, but never really got round to doing. Well here's how it turned out. I'm quite happy with the result although it might be a smidgen exaggerated. :-)

It's in Antwerp on the Schelde somewhere :-)

Every now and then there's a fix...

Finally found some inspiration again :-)
This picture was taken in 2008 at Brussels' North station. I had taken a series of exposures with the intention to do an HDR with them. Somehow at the time I was unable to get it quite the way I wanted it.

Browsing my old pictures yesterday evening I stumbled across them and decided to give it another go. This is the result of that go.
Hope you guys like it!

Layered perspectives

Sardinia again, on the way to the hotel from the beach on our second evening there. The sunsets we saw on the island were magnificent, but I'll get to those in a later post. For those of you interested, it's an HDR of five exposures from 1 raw file with a bit of magic sauce afterwards. The iPhone version is here.

Tramonto in Sardegna

And thus, we finally arrive at the pictures of our second week of holiday which we spent in beautiful Sardinia. Seriously, if you ever have the chance go there! It's truly wonderful.

Dusk is a difficult time to shoot.  New York State colleges have online classes in photography to learn new tricks.

Sun rays over mountains

As I was working on the panorama in the previous post, I noticed that this picture looked quite nice when under exposed by two stops. So this morning I did that edit and this is what came out! I'm very pleased with the outcome.

On the other side

This is the view on the side opposite from the previous picture. It's a panoramia composed of 17 hdr's based on 5 exposures each so basically it took me nearly half the day to get this result. The final tif file ended up at a whopping 1.25 Gb! :-s As with the previous picture I've uploaded a large-ish version to my skydrive for better effect.
Hope you like it, because I am quite happy with the result.
