“HDR” image from the apartment window

Originally uploaded by Ian Fuller

I’m not much good at this HDR stuff. I see some amazing pictures on Flickr but I have not had much success at creating anything interestng myself.

I played around with Photoshop CS4 and twelve images shot with the Canon EOS-30D at 1/3 stop increments between +2 and -2EV. This was the most pleasing result, helped with a little Channel Mixing. I kept my hands off the Seim Effects: all my own work.

Shortly afterwards the skies opened and the rain pelted down. I had to rescue my camera from the balcony before it got soaked and ruined.
