Haddo Loch

One from last weeks Camera Club outing to Haddo House, an NTS property in Aberdeenshire.
This is 3 bracketed images processed in Photomatix so I suppose you can call it an HDR

Re: Haddo Loch

Mike, it is very good and perfectly done in HDR. I would have not know if you have not mentioned it.

Re: Haddo Loch

This is lovely... colours are spot on... unrecognisable as HDR... but in my opinion that is the way it should be.

Re: Haddo Loch

I agree with the other comments re HDR. Its been getting a bad press recently because the effect is taken to extremes, but its a great way to extend the dynamic range when done properly, as in this case.

Re: Haddo Loch

Thanks Alistair
I quite like HDR images - apart from the grungy overcooked ones.
I went out a while ago without my Lee Grads so I took bracketed shots to blend together in CS3.
I also tried Photomatix and was pleased with the results so I use this formula quite often now to extend the DR

Hi Sam

Again, I wouldn't have know if you hadn't mentioned.
Much prefer your 2nd shot with the light over the trees.
