The Glen

The Glen

THE PHOTO:
Setting sun filtered through clouds on a rural setting just outside of Melbourne near the Yarra Valley region.

I would have loved to have some thing interesting in the foreground of this shot (horses etc), but it was a rushed moment.

POST-PROCESSING:
This is one of those moments when only HDR can really come close to revealing what dynamic range the human eye is capable of perceiving. If I get time I will upload the middle exposure of this 3 bracket set to show you the pure lack of detail in the original – sure this has been photoshopped with levels, sharpening and dodge and burn etc, but it still relied on a multiple-exposure bracketed tone-mapped image to get this result.

    EXIF:

  • Aperture: ƒ/11
  • Camera: NIKON D2X
  • Focal length: 46mm
  • ISO: 100
  • Shutter speed: 1/125s

Well done!

You clicked the ‘+’! Well done you!

I’ve been wondering if anyone ever clicked that thing, now I know – thanks!
