Everyday, I drive by Wheeler Farm on my way to and from work. Wheeler farm is a great family friendly place to visit, and it free, and yo get to learn about, yep, farming.
anyway, a lot of people know this barn from the front side where the enterence ios, but I get to see the back side all the time. I always liked the way that the back side is kind of hidden away, yet still quite prominent in the scenery.
When I shooting HDR images, most high end DSLR cameras have auto-bracketing (basically the camera takes multiple pictures for you at different exposure settings). but mine doesn't have this nice feature so I have to do it manually, which I don't mind because then I know exactly what its doing and I feel more in control. However when you do thid manually, it does take a bit longer. I didn't realize how fast the wind was blowing the clods by that day, and so I when I created the first HDR photo, my sky was in blured motion. I then burned it out and replaced it with one of the original skys for the image above. The image below is the HDR sky. Tell me which you like better.
Love it! Good job. That's often what is done for the sky regardless, since you tend to get a massive halo effect in the sky around things like trees.
ReplyDeleteOne option around moving objects, not sure if you are aware, is to shoot in RAW. This records a very wide range of light. You can then open it in Camera RAW, or anything that can make RAW adjustments and change the exposure it the stops you want.
