umm..did you know that for some reason you can't download the photos from Flickr? They are set as background images or something strange like that.

Thanks eveyone.
Freelander,three shots were taken,+2 0 -2 camera was set at AV.
I used Photomatix to align and edit the shots.
Wall,Jonathon is right it was taken at Bathsheba.

I LOVE this!!!
Photography is something I have always been interested in, so I have to ask.
The colours found in sky and ocean are vibrant. Was this achieved by using a different lens or is it post-processing like Photoshop?

photomatix pro 3

Jonathan · Postby **Jonathan** » December 8th, 2009, 3:38 pm

Photomatix has a tendency to bump up the colour saturation, sometimes a bit too much for my liking.. I usually back it off to a more realistic level..

Nice photo tho.. West Coast?

Hi egas,
Three shots were taken in rapid sucession one under exposed,one exposed correctly and one over exposed,this is called Auto exposure bracketing.
I used the Aperture Priority setting on the camera which would be AV.
Then they were brought together in a program called Photomatix to get the HDR look.
I decided to bump up the saturation,as I was going for the over the top look,but you can adjust it in Photomatix to your liking.
Hope this explanation helps.
