Still playing with exposure blending and 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.

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.

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... »

« 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. »
