Danke!
Hoffe, Du meinst, "gebürtigen Hessen", denn wenn die Meenzer mitkriegen, dass Du die nach Hessen einordnest, kommen sie vorbei und hauen Dich.
Und sonst? Alles gut bei Dir?

Das wär' aber 'mal ein echt einseitiges Vergnügen, wenn man bedenkt, dass ich gar kein Bier trinke...
Und ausserdem, hey, ich hab' heute für 95 Euro Sprit in die Karre kippen müssen. Das Scheiss-Diesel is' teurer als Benzin und Super! Macht mich noch arm... nee, noch ärmer.
Und in 'nen Zug kriegen mich keine zehn Pferde.
Also musst Du vorbeikommen.

hehe, I'm glad I zoomed in because at first glance of the thumb it looked like giant shopping carts in a parking lot (I'm not trying to offend, that's just what it looked like ) but yeah, when you full view it makes a lot more sense!! AWESOME shot, love the colors and the motion feel really works!

omdot In reply to Pamplemousse02 [2008-01-31 23:24:35 +0000 UTC]

thanks a lot. people should klick for the full view more often.
and dA sometimes makes really bad thumbnail images with wrong colors and stuff.

omdot In reply to Anaid89 [2008-01-28 16:14:54 +0000 UTC]

this one i found is in portuguese: [link]
i used the cpl filter to have nicer contrasts in the sky and to control the reflexions from the building. it's quite an amazing filter.
the majority of the effect comes from the processing i did in photomatix and ps later.

I'm very impressed...what program did you use? Mind sharing any tips? I'm fairly new to the HDR process and I've been trying some out, but without much success..

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

omdot In reply to oriental-dragon [2008-01-28 03:29:25 +0000 UTC]

thank you, lindsey.
for this one i used photomatix and ps.

first i did the pseudo-hdr from raw and the tonemapping in photomatix.
then in ps i duplicated the photo into several layers and adjusted the lights/shadows/hue/brightnes/contrast/saturation according to what i wished the different parts to be and masked out the parts of the layers i did not need. all in all a ps file with a filesize of about 350MB.
in fact there is no absolute way to achieve a certain look, it's all about playing with photomatix 'til you like what you see and then doing minor/partial adjustments in ps...

hope this helps at least a little.

and as to using multiple exposures or a single raw image: it depends on what is in the picture. sometimes i use single raw, sometimes 3 bracketed shots (+/- 1,7EV) and sometimes up to 9 shots. but most of the time it's the 3 bracketed shots, which is pretty easy and you can mostly do it without having to haul along a tripod.
