Re: Noo Zooland North Island. Again.Nice photos, but in my view that hdr effect adds a feel of artificiality to gorgeous landscapes. I think many people use hdr not because a photo needs it but add an effect. Was that your intention?
Re: Noo Zooland North Island. Again.
No worries Zaffs and a good question. Actually nos 2 & 4 are SOOC. 1&3 have had some post processing but I can't remember what I did to them. I just try filters/sliders/buttons etc and see what looks good to my eye and monitor. President, A.A.A.A.A (Australian Association Against Acronym Abuse)

Re: Noo Zooland North Island. Again.I guess if it looks good to you on your monitor that's what counts.

Re: Noo Zooland North Island. Again.I like those tree trunks, lots of potential there.
I think alot of people will see HDR, however newer cameras just have great dynamic range and hence even straight outta the camera they can look hdr-ish. This is a two edge sword, since a scene with very little in the shadows often lacks depth, mystery and interest, on the flip side having all that detail and your histogram nicely balanced means you can really sculpt that light in processing to achieve really nice shots. Take your hotel shot for example ![]() ![]() here is a 2 sec crack from my end - just a thought. ![]() gerry's photography journey
No amount of processing will fix bad composition - trust me i have tried.
Re: Noo Zooland North Island. Again.I like it Gerry. Definitely an improvement on my effort with more depth to the image. (Unfortunately I am not a PS guru like you, but just a trundler.

Re: Noo Zooland North Island. Again.
Not a bad idea and also you would get different takes, as members would put their slant on the image. I like to see where this would lead to.
Re: Noo Zooland North Island. Again.
Go for it. Do we want a section for this? g.

Sounds great. Maybe "Free Edit" section where members offer their images (raw or jpg) to our esteemed sages (or to newcomers) to edit away and post their results. President, A.A.A.A.A (Australian Association Against Acronym Abuse)

Re: Noo Zooland North Island. Again.
Me thinks, a crash course in LR is called for. I will see if I can put something together.

Re: Noo Zooland North Island. Again.
seriously. ditch that shit and start using Lightroom, for the edits, that I think you do, Lightroom would be much better. BTW, you can also just open images up from LR in PS if you feel the need. gerry's photography journey

Re: Noo Zooland North Island. Again.Gerry I'm trying to learn Spanish as well as Garageband for some church audio projects. What's one more thing to learn and master before the 1st May?
