City slickers
Filed Under General
Not sure where we were going Thursday night I stepped out in my most fashionable tracksuit pants. As it turns out Chris, Sven and I headed to the city and I looked very stylish amongst the drunken suits etc.

UPDATE: This time I posted from my laptop where the pics look as intended but on my monitor they look over saturated!!! Arggg! Need to calibrate. Might post this pic again.
REPOST ABOVE, ORIGINAL BELOW (which looks better on your monitor?)

HDR was again a topic of conversation and the above shot is a five frame one. Just straight auto HDR with a little tone map tweaking and a bit of blue onto the sky. For comparison the normal exposure shown below.

It think it worked out quite well. Still, I increasingly feel that there are only select instances where HDR can be used effectively and once this current little HDR trend I am in ends it will be just another tool to be used where appropriate.
Another couple of shots from riverside area.

Well, I’m on a laptop here, and the first one looks good, and the second oversaturated and garish.
That’s how it looks on my monitors – I think my laptop is in need of some sort of calibration.
