The Lonely but Beautiful Path
Daily Photo - The Lonely but Beautiful Path
I have a lot of alone time. When I am out shooting, I am totally in
my own world. In fact, I'm even double-in-my-own-world because I have
my iPod on and I drift away into pure right-brain mode. It's quite
nice, in a way, because I do achieve a zen-like peace where time does
not matter.
I've worked with a few photographers that will copy and paste a sky from one photo and put it into another photo. I don't do that stuff - that is waaaay too much editing for me. All the clouds and colors you see are true and wonderfully there. I even sat with a guy once who would take a perfect moon out of one photo and paste it into another! I simply can't bring myself to do anything like that... it's just too over-the-top!
The HDR Tutorial, Still Going Strong
I think it's been over three years since I first posted the HDR Tutorial here on this site! By the way, if you are new to the site, then what
you are mostly seeing here is HDR Photography.
I go in and update the tutorial every three months or so, as I discover new techniques and further refine the process. We have SO many comments on there (especially on page 3 of the tutorial!) -- I am not able to answer them all. But I am happy that so many people are learning this fun new sport. As usual, if you have any feedback, please let me know. The reason it is so good now is based on that very feedback, so keep it coming!

Great looking sky!
Your comment about the cut-and-paste moon guy reminded me of another over-the-top practice. Back in film days, some "pros" would shoot a whole roll of the moon by itself, and keep it handy for multiple exposures. These shots usually look phony, and I suspect they still turn up in "moon" calendars!
