Couple of HDRs

[Zazu]

Just a couple of HDRs that I've finished processing, I think they could do with some further tweaks but any C&C is welcome :)

Noting: I still don't know what an HDR is. I'm a Photoshop and Photography whore, doesn't mean I know terminology.

Sorry for late reply Josh, of course you can edit the second one :) I still need to do a bit to it myself, but can't till I get home on my desktop cos I fail with track pads lol. So yer, go for it, would love to see what you do with it :)

Not sure exactly how you do that but the change is quite the improvement. ;) It's a gentle but effective change.
I guess that's where we differ, you aim for the subtle but overwhelming change whereas I go for the wow factor. ;)
Great job.<3
I'll post the second when I get around to editing it.

EDIT: Minor changes.

Wow to both of you! I love both of them. Josh, you asked specifically so I'll C&C you. 9/10, cause no ones perfect. But yours is pretty awesome

Hey. Can you tell me the shutter speeds for each of the starting pics, and what program you use?

Thanks.

Thanks.

The shutter speed wasn't what I relied on for the HDRs in this thread, it was exposure bracketing.

This is a function that most modern DSLRs have on them where the camera will normally take three pictures; one at the correct exposure, one which is a certain amount darker than the correct exposure and one which is a certain amount lighter than the correct exposure.

The bracketing settings I use for HDRs is -2,0,+2

To make the final HDR image, I used photomatix for these ones I think. Hope this helps :)

:o You took those? Those are so professional! The second one is amazing.
When I go to California I know a great place to take pictures like these ones.
