July 22, 2008 HDR

Last night I hit a tutorial presented by Sean Foreman sponsored by the Minneapolis Photographic Society, one of the topics discussed was HDR amongst other topics of interest. I have over the years shot some HDR material but, I shot 10 or so buildings over a 20 minute period with a Rebel XT to put some of the HDR training to use while it was still somewhat fresh. I have CHDK on my SD1000 so I need to try out exposure bracketing on the little point and shoot, that would be pretty cool to have in a 3 ounce camera do bracketed shots for HDR.

1st Try, Norman Pointe, in the large version details within parking structure levels are evident yet nothings blown out yet, I spent a bit too much time editing and a few flaws are evident (well I know where they are) that kind of bug me. Deciding on the final level of realism versus cartoonishnish was a bit difficult so I saved the un-flattened photoshop.
