DanP Do you like the result Dan? Without trying to grandstand, I've always tried to avoid pictures (you can hardly call them photos when they had that much work) that don't quite look right. Your example doesn't look 'natural' to me. There's a fellow in Germany who does a lot of steam locomotives in HDR. His pictures always look surreal and totally unnatural. Perhaps doing it his way is like if you are going to go a little over, why not go way over and make art from it. I've got Lucis art which some people use for this stuff. I've had it for a few years and only ever used it to recover images until one day a guy came into the studio with some HDR portraits he made with LucisArt. Strange looking for sure but he sells plenty - or so he said when he was at the job interview! |
