HDR Alta Vista IIby ~Jase036

Photography / Urban & Rural / Cityscapes & Skylines

Image of Alta Vista taken from the roof top of a building. I used a polarizing filter and to my surprise when I processed the HDR image the sky that wasn't covered by clouds was a very very dark blue

~fiamen Oct 7, 2008

it's normal when you use polarizer

it makes the sky very deep blue

~Jase036 Oct 7, 2008

Yes, but the effect was magnified by the HDR processing and the result was so deep that I had to tone it down or it looked almost black

Thanks for visiting and the comment, I appreciate it

~fiamen Nov 1, 2008

I can imagine it

HDRs usually make the clouds look darker and more stormy

it's the main problem with them and the greatest advantage in the same moment. you have to be careful, because easily you can get very unnatural effect. but, some like it in HRDs

wow very amazing clouds

~Jase036 Sep 19, 2008

Yes, they were lovely

Thanks for the comment

You really master the secrets of HDR well it seems. The level of detail is impressive and the contrast levels of the buildings are spot on

The sky and the clouds are a couple of notches too dark and dramatic to my liking though, as it currently attracts too much attention in the composition

~Jase036 Sep 16, 2008

Thank you very much for your technical comment, I truly appreciate it

I think you are right about the clouds, I just couldn't help myself, I usually start with the buildings or foreground and then when I got to the sky, got carried away when I saw how dramatic it looked and forgot the rest of the composition

I will try and drop a couple of notches and see how that looks.
