Vancouver in HDR Coriolistic Anachronisms - A Vancouver Blog
Hi, I'm your friendly Coriolibot (as in "ro-bot").
It would seem Vince (shame on him) hasn't posted a fresh entry in a couple of days, so I am here to keep you entertained no matter what!
The post below is a random entry that we hope you haven't read before. Regular current entries follow. Enjoy, and come back soon for brand new posts!
Note: this random entry is served on a per-visit basis and will change if you reload the page. It will also not show up on regular RSS, Feedburner and Twitter feeds.

This is only part of an ongoing series of experiments on High Dynamic Range photography with Vancouver at its core. I will never substitute HDR to normal photography and only post HDR pictures if they are more interesting then their regular counterpart(s). There are still a lot of artifacts, halos and imperfections. But I have to admit that even though my photos adjusted through HDR software are often a little surreal, I see them as a mix between painting and photography and as such, they fascinate me. Now eventually, I hope to become good enough at it that the HDR shots will be undetectable, if not for their amazing color range.
« WOW - you sure can make those night lights in a cool rainy city look attractive.

Are the green lights in the stairwell (pic4) and the purple lights real or imaginary (ie enhanced)? »
« Thanks! And all the lights were as is, I didn’t enhance anything even though I sometimes do...

« Great work with the lights. As an aspiring photographer, I am in awe of your ability to control the exposure to make your shot come out just right. Great work. I’m jealous. »
