18_May_2010hdr_small.jpg

Loch of Skene, Aberdeenshire

OK, here is todays experiment...The pic below is my usual - all but hasty - processing of a single (mid-exposure) image of tonights sunset which covers more than the 5 stops of light the sensor can register and above is a set of 3 shots at 2 stop spacing merged in HDR Darkroom. Which do you prefer...if any? I am trying to create an image that is close to what I saw at the time, rather than a surreal artificial image!

I have zipped back and forth as I compared both, and I really like the detail you've been able to show in the foreground in the HDR version. The colours in the original seem more moody, but I keep being drawn back to this one. Lovely work,Stewart.

The HDR has popped out the foreground nicely!
