This is really nice. I like the dark skies. The colors and tones of the house really reflects well.
Impressive capture!

If there were no sun, the house would look a bit scary
But still... amazing details

What is " This is an HDR image .. 3 shots bracketed at +1EV" ?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

wb-skinner In reply to Arimana [2006-11-27 13:48:11 +0000 UTC]

its three photos taken one after the other (on a tripod) by setting the bracketing fuction on your camera .. they are each at a different exposure .. EV is the difference between each exposure..

then the shots are combined using Photomatix and tone-mapped.. brings out the light in the shadows..

aurora900 [2006-11-25 05:36:40 +0000 UTC]

I dont know how you make these things look so nice... Its just a random house in a field... But it somehow has a great composition and looks awesome.

Have a good tutorial on these HDR photos? I'd love to learn how to make them.
