Landscape First attempt at HDR style photography

First attempt at HDR style photography · 04:52 PM

I've been fascinated by HDR photography. That dreamy look is something that I find beautiful in many photos... while in others just annoying. I went out on World Pentax Day in Feb with the goal of taking shots that I could merge into some HDR photography. All of the following are done with 5 frames.

I'm not very happy with the last two. Mostly composition I think could have been a lot better.

Very nice. I really like #2 and #4.

Great stuff, yes, the 2nd photo is great. Actually, I was looking for a place to post my first HDR efforts, so I thought I'd post them here!

I created this from 3 bracketed photos of +/- 2 ev steps and used 'Qtpsfgui' + 'hugin-tools' (Ubuntu) to create the HDR image.

Very nice effect! I love 1, 3 and 4.

The first three are wonderful and yes, I can feel the dreaminess, especially in the first. I like HDR shots and plan to experiment myself. Thank you for sharing
