[andrewtansj] A Photo A Day 2007

[andrewtansj]

last 2 are good, in my book! :thumbsup:
might want to use multiply and layers in photoshop to bring out the colours in the sky in the last one though
very nice, very decent shots esp when considering you just started out

thanks for the tips

edited version after some kind comments from night86mare. hope i'm not violating rules here.​

i see you've found hdr! hahahaha
leaning a bit on the graphic side though
personally i think a darker mood may work better here because of the nature of the clouds, hrm

yah... just got photomatix pro and trying to figure out. not very sure yet... this was the best i could produce with it. was fun though....;p

ahhhh as a rule of thumb i find realistic results are achieved when i limit the saturation when tone mapping around 70

strength can be 100

luminosity is very important, for some reason photomatix gives an overly luminous?(?) image therefore dropping the luminosity would somehow always make it look better

for me i don't like to microsmooth at all, it softens the image quite visibly, anyways, was playing around in PS because i'm really bored and i got this, let me know if you want me to take it down, just to show what i meant by darker mood

oh... icic... wasn't able to get a realistic picture while figuring out in photomatix... was trying to match the actual colour and lighting conditions and was still wondering something not very right. thanks for your time on the tips
