STROBIST: SB-600 fired left of subject through LumiQuest Big Bounce, built in flash used as commander. Fenix L2D flashlight from camera right to give a bit of separation from the background.

He ate half of it - true story.

Never was a huge fan on Toblerone chocolates. I mean, i wouldn't turn it down if someone gave it to me, but i wouldn't go buy one for myself. Makes sense?
But i do love Snickers ;D

5 shot HDR done with 1 stop increments

Shot at the northern most point of Kulhudhuffushi.
That there is the reject water outfall pipe from a nearby desalination plant being held in place using huge concrete blocks.

I still got a lot to learn about properly processing HDRs. The top of the sky seems a bit cooked i guess, but i really like how the details are visible from the horizon and below.

I haven't done much HDRs because i had a fear that i might plunge into the HDR Hole and not come out. It was tempting i tell you.

Why did i finally finally decide to give it a go? Because i felt confident that i would not be taking that dreaded plunge. oh, and there also was Trey Ratcliff (google+, flickr) for inspiration :)

Yea, i don't like the crappy flickr sharpening either, so i always press "L"!
you should try it too.
