Popular Post MJP Posted January 8, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2014 Now looking at these normally makes me feel quite ill. Such physical effects of looking at HDR photos have been reported by others and I find the stronger the HDR effect the more I want to throw up. Dunno why? But thought might as well have a go using the UWA Sigma 8-16mm f/4.5 - 5.6 at 8mm on APS-C. Couldn't be bothered to go anywhere, so did an HDR of my office, post-processed in CS6 via Lightroom 5.3. I've tried to minimise that HDR look as much as possible by randomly pulling sliders about as is my usual iterative almost monte carlo simulation technique in getting confused. Still makes me feel poorly though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunshine51 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I really like that wooden table in the top pic. I make these things as a hobby & am soon to head out into the forest in search of "old wood". Once cut to size each slab gets sanded super smooth then either oiled or varnished. if varnished 100 coats is the minimum I apply with a hand sanding between each coat. Don't like polyurethane coatings....too "plastic" for me. Great shots MJP...kinda like a magic mushroom ride...hah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhythmworx Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 TBH I think you did a good job on that 1st shot. I've just read an article (thanks to whoever posted the blog on another thread) that you will find interesting, that is if you haven't already read it. http://blog.mingthein.com/2014/04/14/hdr-zone-system-dynamic-range/#more-8139 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJP Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 This was a puke test. I wanted to see how many of my tog friends down here in the tog forum threw up on exposure to these hideous images.

Got better recently at processing HDR to achieve a more natural look but still queasy.

Thaiberius Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 I like this one MJP, may I ask about the lighting? Is tgis fixed or did you install or is it accentuated by HDR? I can see a shadow so presume there was a natural source? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJP Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 ^^^ Outta likes MJP... I didn't take that pic of the insect fly critter thing by the way, just used it as an example. I guess the tog did multiple exposures long multiple focus points which can only lead me to understand that's an awful lot of photos and the fly must have been dead.

Thanks fella,I really do appreciate your kind feedback. HDR is something that I like to play around with,a bit of a struggle sometimes trying to make something from the images out of my old P&S camera.In the next couple of days my new camera should arrive and I am excited to get my hands on it. I finally decided on a Alpha a6000 (stop sniggering ) with standard 16-50mm and 55-210mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
