A couple HDRs:

 

Great images! I know the basic theory of HDR and its multiple exposure, but am sadly ignorant of how such images are best combined in Photoshop. Can you recommend any on-line instruction on best work-flow procedures to maintain luminance and so on? Thanks.

Sincerely, beak.

I love the stuff that's showing up here! I've been away a few days on a trip to Mountain View, Arkansas-interesting town where my father grew up. Took a few pictures while I was there. This is one I took along a sidewalk:

Thanks! I didn't use photoshop but used a plugin for the HDRs - Nik software's HDR Efex Pro.

jon, that mill machinery photo is pretty cool. I especially like the lichen on the wheel. Nice shot!

Happily sliding down the slippery slope of fountain pen acquisition disorder.

Thanks! I also did a black & white of the same subject, but I haven't done much digital b & w, so I'm not as happy with it, especially when I see what other people here are able to do! Anyway, here it is:

I reworked it, and it should show up in my edited post (might have to clear your cache). Or go here: http://www.flickr.co...6/?reuploaded=1 . Any better? I really do need to practice a lot with B/W.

 

Go to your mail box and you will see hints for "doging in"technique in LR.

Nice b/w from New Orleans, Sonia! All your pictures have me wanting to make a visit... or maybe when it cools down a bit... It's been too long, and it would be nice to have coffee and beignets (sp?) at the Cafe du Monde.

 

Just to keep the thread going, another picture from China that I liked:

New Orleans is such a beautiful city in terms of architecture, it does remind me somehow to European cities. Yes, it is beignets. And thank God we're having rain here to cool us down from the scorching weather.

Now, Arkansas is gorgeous for its karst regions and underground caves. I loved north AK and it reminded me much of the karst region back in home, Puerto Rico.

 

I like that photo of the men chatting.
