Valley View - HDR

Yosemite, California

Here's the valley view shot again, but using HDR this time. I'm new to HDR, and still
experimenting with how I want to use it. HDR seems to let me draw out more detail, depth
and over all color quallity compared to what I was able to get from the non-hdr shot. You?

Great, compo, layers and colors!

Sandi, just an outstanding photo. Nice way of bring out the best in a photo with HDR. I honestly believe that a photo is a work of art in the eyes of the photographer and working with a photo is the artist coming out in them. Everyone sees differently but your photos are excellent in all aspects... Thanks for sharing your work...

Just started into HDR and really like the effects. It a new way to bring out the best in a photo. Would like to go and see Yosemite in the fall.. Our Banff to Jasper is also outstanding. Well worth seeing... This photo is excellent...Thanks for sharing...V

Le post-traitement est grandiose et va très bien à ce paysage. C'est une splendide photo.
Paula Krugerud18-Aug-2010 15:17
I really do think you've already got the hang of the HDR...some can get pretty crazy, a bit over the top. I'm going to have to test the HDR waters one of these days...I love the end results. This shot is stunning Sandi!
Geneviève Cotineau18-Aug-2010 13:03
So beautiful, Sandi!

A beautiful scene and HDR photo. Well done, Sandi. V
Sam Rua12-Jul-2010 22:49
Nice job on the HDR to where it does not look overly done, Sandi. I agree that there is a perceptible increase in depth over the non-HDR version.
Bill Gallagher12-Jul-2010 17:51
Beautifuly done Sandi. V

Sometimes we need to use hdr to get the most out of the scene, like this one. Good job Sandi...v

Perfect use of HDR for stunning, painterly beauty, without over doing it. Really great work!

This is excellent. I love both your regular and HDR!
Terry Olsen07-Jul-2010 10:35
Wonderful image! I personally like the HDR look and you did a nice job on this one. The tone mapping is noticeable but not over the top. V

Superb landscape and your HDR enhances it. Excellent. And the light is so beautiful too.
James O. Harle06-Jul-2010 15:56
Sandi - First one of yours I have seen in HDR. Great job with the processing. Not to mention composition and POV. Are you using Photomatrix?
Gerard Koehl06-Jul-2010 15:23
Ce HDR est du plus bel effet pour cette image. V
Barbara Read and Fred Schaad06-Jul-2010 13:49
HDR images do tend to look a bit surreal compared to normal images, which is fine if that is what you are going for. This on is noticeably HDR but not overly surreal. It is a wonderful composition. V
Guest 06-Jul-2010 13:44
Beautiful color and light, Sandi. Love the low POV. Excellent. V
Jim Coffman06-Jul-2010 12:35
