Dark Cloisters

this really was 2 extremes very bright light coming in and dark inside - but it did create some great tones and loved the way the floor came out due to shadows

Only the 7 then . I assume you set it to auto bracket them and one press of the shutter takes all 7?

You certainly did well. Do you recall the slowest shutter speed?

no but LR does 1/15 - 1/500, just a bit of a range

Re: Dark Cloisters

Really nice and some top HDR work Are you merging them in PS and, if so, are you pre-processing in LR?
I particularly like the texture of the flags and the contrast with the rafters.

Re: Dark Cloisters

thanks John

the images were exported from LR after adjusting WB & lens corrections, then all the processing was done in Aurora - once done exported back to LR for auto verticals corrections

One of the nice things with Aurora is the use of layers as this allows for very detailed processing, unlike all the others where its right across the image

Re: Dark Cloisters

Thanks Ian. Aurora is currently MAC only but I have PS so will experiment with that.

I don't think you'll have long to wait, the developers must burning the midnight oil to get it out
