Hi Ghaz1,
very nice HDRs. I attached one of my HDRs. First time doing it. Can help me to comment ?
Thanks
It looks nice and even leaning on the natural side which is good. I'd try to open up the shadow areas some more unless you intended for the trees to be a silhouette because the idea of increasing your dynamic range is to capture all or most of the details in the scene. Otherwise you may still get the same picture by underexposing your shot by one or two stops. :think:
Compositionally, i think it's very good. I hope you took one where there was more water than sky as well just to see the difference because the stillness of the water seems to reflect the sky very well.
Overally a good first effort. :thumbsup:

Hi Ghaz1,
Thanks for your comments and compliments.
If you take for example like this one of yours, is so good and amazing. Are you pushing over the limits to get the effect on such HDR and lots of saturation? Because I really love what you doing to your pictures. Is really creative.
Actually I am practising right now at this moment.
Thanks and helps me to learn alot from you.

Limits? Limits depends on your tolerance levels for pushing the boundaries of reality. As you can see, i have a very wide tolerance level. :bsmilie: The main thing is to not get caught in between, neither here nor there kind of HDR. Either use it to complement your view of reality or push it to create a hyper-real world. But always have your intended vision in mind when taking the picture because you shouldn't correct a snapshot by using HDR as a padding for a weak image. Compose, Capture, Create. 3Cs to a good HDR. Create of course means a good workflow to "create" the vision that you saw in your mind's eye which for me, may not necessarily correspond to the "real" world before me when i clicked the shutter. And of course, take notes and review, refine and refresh your processes. It's a slow process of learning through experience but that's where the right attitude is essential. You must enjoy the journey as much as the destination.

I think there are two views to this. There would be the other camp, that treats HDR as a tool to get a higher dynamic range than what our existing equipments are capable of. There are some (not me, HDR is not something I've mastered) like Draken413o who achieve realistically looking pictures without overblowing things.
Of course, one is also free to create HDR as one sees fit, if that is to one's taste
