u so ma L fan lah

Ma L fan your head

HDR for today...

haha, can see onot dai goh ?

like the 1st one the 2nd one if there's no cable around it'll be better.

my opinion: the 1st shot the clouds could be more dramatic


can. its not nicely done. the black area's too dark. did u tone map it in photomatix?

I tried every possible angle to avoid the cable.. The only way is to get out of the house and walk a lil bit.. I guess I was lazy...

Dramatic in sense that more contrast? Grey clouds and blue clouds? Will keep that in mind.. Thanks..

lol well, im lazy often too

dramatic in making the clouds more "ketul ketul". Look at my examples in the previous page then you know what i mean. But u need a certain plug in for photoshop to do that. and a certain way

ill teach you in time

Haha. The magic of post-processing.

forget liao, i brower and set all to highest setting jek.....then rander

aiyah, software thing, kid only will play around jek, still prefer ori shoot lah

That's the problem with you, don't know never ask. When do wrong liao say others kid. The fact that you don't know how to use those softwares and then get frustrated and then calling other ppl names just because you didn't learn how to use it is just plain ironically lame.

If you don't like it. Just say you don't. there's no need to go around indirectly claiming other people's pics not ori or ori. I always knew your stay in here won't turn out good anyway so no offense.

I'm not waging a war about editing your pics in software or not. I'm saying this on behalf of those who uses software to make their pics nicer. Even various traditional darkroom techniques are just similar to some of the functions in photoshop.

Ori shooting or not. If your composition salah, then it won't turn out good either.

oh! you like it ! well i find photomatix is quite easy to use , i mean just for HDR! i don't know how to use photoshop for HDR yet! anyway i notice detail is loss a bit, and the tone mapping adjustment is abit tricky!
but this picture i do HDR with just one shoot!
maybe next time i will shoot in raw , so can play with the +2/-2 exposure compensation!

Yeah its a good try

Photomatix HDR toning is much easier than photoshop's. I don't like photoshop's 1 haha... not much control to me. Sometimes detail lost inevitable. 1 shoot of jpeg? o_O

dude, and 3 raw is better than 1 get what i mean?

I was about to ask how can u get HDR of a guy jumping when u're supposed to combine 5 pictures lol ...

Anyways Radical .. 1 question here ... 2 case .. can u tell me will the result be same or not ar ? Everything same .. same composition , same camera , everything same ( except for the shutter speed of coz .. to take the 5 pictures ) :

1) -2ev -1ev 0ev 1ev 2ev
2) -4ev -2ev 0ev 2ev 4ev

Will the result come out the same ?

y u wan shoot me like that worh i so sad lah

for your 1st question. Use 1 RAW. That's all i can say. Then go to photomatix > automate > single file conversion > tick "from low to high dynamic range" with radiance rgb. Then look for your file. then click ok.

Hmmm... Definitely will be different. If im not wrong, pic two will be darker at some areas. while pic 1 will have a more balanced shot. But still i cant be completely sure. Why not take a time out experiment it yourself?

But' ill go for method 1. Then bring to photoshop for further processing

Good luck.
