My HDR attempts
Well...my first attempts at HDR photography...today was a very overcast day but I went ahead and took some shots around my town and driveway...look forward to taking some late afternoon shots as the sun is setting

If you curious...I'm using a Canon EOS 40D digital SLR...the camera allows me to "bracket' the subject I'm taking a picture of...basically, you use the camera to take 3 to 5 shots at different exposure levels...then you have to use software to "merge" the different levels. Using this technique allows the user to enhance the color found in the picture...I love how the yellow and red in my Coke shot really pops1...anyway, using software, you can create different effects...hopes this helps...Lou
btw, I LOVE those wheels you have on your Mustang...I'm so tempted to order a set!!

Thanks for the compliment! I almost wanted to sell them when they were off in storage for the winter, then I put them on last week and remembered why I bought them in the first place.

Thanks Z!!! Appreciate the complement, and yes, its my first time messing with HDR. On the software, I'm using Fhotoroom HDR, which cost $47.95. Next time I go out, I'm going to play with the ISO...yesterday, I shot most of my picks in either 100 or 200.
also, we have a drug store that is extremely well lit at night...so I'm going to try some night photos here real soon...I'll keep you posted on the results

Cool thanks for the advice! You and FromZto5 really have me interested in one of these cameras now.

Hey Z...not sure what you're asking...if its the AEB you're inquiring about, I was running -2...1...+1...at least that is what my camera shows...and the ISO was 100
Let me know if that is what you were asking...if not, please clarify...thanks...Lou

uh oh John... first it was the springs, then the MGW, now a DSLR. Man I am bad influence on you
But yes dslr, one time buy, you will never look back, and wonder why you have a point and shoot, ever.
You won't go wrong with either a Nikon or a Canon. No argument there. I shoot with a Nikon D60. Lou has a Canon Rebel I think.

Well, I meant the HDR strength in the actual program. I am not familiar with Fhotoroom. So are you happy with the program? I wonder if there is a version for macs...
