Playing with HDR

I was standing under the tree tonight watching the sunset and decided to
have a crack at HDR. Like stitched panorama's tree's and waves are hard
to get right as they are moving.

This one has a bit of blur in full frame on the leaves where the
branches have moved in the wind.

Your photo satisfies the #1 requirement of a good HDR pic.
That is, you cannot immediately tell it is an HDR pic.

I completely agree.
There's nothing worse than those grainy HDR's that look like a screen-grab
from a computer game.

Yes, moving objects are problem for HDR.
However, sometimes it could give very interesting effects (eg. moving
clouds).
Despite a lot of negative opinions floating around HDR I decided to add HDR
gallery.

Way too many people use HDR for all the wrong reasons. It's good to
see someone who gets it (mostly) right. Congratulations Marcin I've
been using my own form of HDR for years on bride and grooms shots in
the sun. I don't believe I've ever done a successful landscape using
HDR.

In this respect it is a lot like stereo. If you have a dedicated stereo
camera, then moving objects are no big problem, but if you are doing it with
a single lenses camera, (by moving the camera between shots) then moving
objects ruin the picture if they are of significant size.

Hmm. Where did he go? (O;

By the way, I did a quick look around for a wedding image that could
use HDR.. There's an image on this page that desperately needs help,
given the photographer didn't have the nous to use a little diffused
flash, and has ended up with a shot where both the background and
foreground are poorly exposed..

(You can almost hear the instructions - "lean in awkwardly, we want
this looking posed, and I need to see the sun *and* that silly little
white sign in the background..")

Maybe you could send your HDR technique to him. Oh, wait...

Ho hum... Same ****, different day.
If ever you gain any artistic ability, be sure to post the results
here, won't you?

Mark Thomas 7 Loser of the century. Directly from your web site:

"first up, you can email me at ..
no claims to greatness here - i'm just a person who likes to take
photographs. (O: but i guess that raises the question of why i would
presume to offer tutorials as well as show off images..

Nice spelling mate!

Yep... Certainly does if the crap you put up, claiming
greatness ...like this God awful shot of some ugly Sheila and dufus
junior: http://www.marktphoto.com/portrait/slides/mymum.jpg is
evidence of your (former) greatness as a wedding photographer which
you mysteriously refuse to elobrate on. Tell us now Mark, this isn't
one of your offspring? ROTFL. You sure as hell couldn't have been paid
for that crap picture. LOL.

Why you attack a working professional wedding photographer and Pioneer
of digital enlargements... Someone whom you are so jealous of you
invent lies to tell about him is something you need to speak to your
doctor about.

I know this old snapper gets up your nose, Markie old boy but you
gotta learn to live with getting it wrong all the time. The man you
are so jealous of just gets more successful every year at what you
wannado but can't because you're just a wannabe that can't be. If
anyone were to actually take your advise, they'd be as big a lunatic
as you are. Get a life fool. You'll never keep up with me so stop
trying.

If anyone else agrees with you, I'll listen. But you're batting zero,
Doug. As witnessed by the fact that I see you now avoid chipping in
on any thread where photography is being discussed.

I have finished with you. You have zero cred.

Duck's back. Water.
