Explore Front Page (#22) on September 8th. Thank you all!
Taken today in Umm Suqeim Beach. I had my feet in the water and it was really warm, above 35 degrees celsius. There were a lot of kite surfers, but unfortunately most of them were on my back, therefore not in the frame with the setting sun. Will have to go back there with my 70-300mm zoom lens!
3 exposures, handheld (no time to setup the tripod here! The D300 fired 7 exposures). Digital Blending. Some people are asking why there is no ghost effect. No ghost effect because I blend the exposures manually, and not using a specialized HDR software. The sun is from the -1EV exposure, the kite, the surfer, the left part of the sky and the sea is from the 0EV exposure, and the beach is from the +1EV exposure.

Another fantastic blending. HDR in normal sence is almost imposible which waves so I understand why you went for DRI instead.

Anyone can run Photomatrix or one of the other pieces of software. To take the exposures and process manually is Art. This is Great Art.
