Still playing with exposure blending and HDR
(This is an archived post; click on blog header for current content)

Experimenting with a new beta FFDD script kindly provided for testing by Timothy Farrar, I must say that I am having a whole lot of fun with photography and HDR, and have come to the following uncorrelated conclusions:

  • The level of noise reduction achieved by blending multiple bracketed exposures into a final HDR digital negative is amazing;
  • I need a better lens or two. The generic zoom lens that came with the Canon XTi is just not good enough, too soft and cheap, as any bundled lens;
  • I must, repeat, MUST get myself very soon to an area that has reds and yellows and oranges. BC’s beautiful blues and greens are getting on my nerves. ;-)

    « Anonymous and Gricelle: Thank you both, lad to know someone enjoys cold colors...

    Craig: Yup, we’re getting there. I guess I’ll make the best of my XTi for another year or two and then some truly amazing new cameras should arrive on the market... »

    « Those are stunning photos. I’d love to see you write an article on how you like to do your HDR. I’ve read a few articles but none of their results were as stunning as yours. Cheers. »

    « Well, I was trying to avoid the cliché of writing yet another HDR tutorial, especially since I am no authority on the matter, but maybe I’ll do it anyway just for the hell of it... »

  • 6 - Vancouver Island Daryl says:

    « That would be great Vince, my only attempt at playing with HDR required more patience then I have. But I’ve been playing with a lot of layer effects and such on my photos. Btw what do you think of my new Vancouver Island Photography BLOG I start justed working on. Cheers, and good up the good shots. »

  • 6.1 - Vince answers:

    « Well, I’ve done it, let’s see now if I’ll regret it... ;-)

    Good job on the blog, BTW, I can’t wait to see pictures of the Sooke river, my favourite in your area... »

    « I think it will be a while until I make it to Sooke... but you can check out a corporate photography gallery I did for a housing development right on Sooke River :) http://www.quenet.org/Gallery/Sunriver2006/ »
