HDR Real Estate Photography Using Photomatix Pro

5 to 9 bracketed images shot RAW, converted to 16 bit TIF using Adobe Lightroom with only white balance adjustment. Processed each image set with Photomatix Pro using both Exposure Fusion and HDR Tone Mapping and saved as 16 bit TIFs. Then brought into Adobe Photoshop for final processing including combining both the Exposure Fusion and Tone Mapped images. Final images are saved as 16 bit TIFs for client use and resized jpegs for web use. comment | share Type your message and click Add Comment It is best to login or register first but you may post as a guest.

I usually prefer to use the tone compressor method for the final image. They are more naturally looking. - V - Dan 06-Sep-2011 15:16 Excellent work v Michael J.

Hats off to you, my friend. (V) William Vogt 10-Sep-2010 03:24 Thanks Michael. Many interior shots were taken at twilight, actually after sunset, the long exposures brought out the deep blue of the sky/water at that time. I elected to leave them as is I used the Exposure Fusion method in Photomatix Pro, not the HDR with tone mapping. I wanted to get a more natural look and not the "HDR look". No flash was used, all are natural lighting. Regards, Bill Michael Erard 10-Sep-2010 03:08 Hi, very nice jobs and look, may I ask what settings do you use in photomatix? Also, it seems that you forgot to change the white balance when you were exposing for the outside (windows) in some of your interior shots, I see a blue cast cast in some of them.
