Description
Trying out new things again lol. (please ZOOM)
One RAW image Tone-mapped using Photomatix3.0
I played around with this and preferred this darker tone to create a dramatic kind of look to it.
This is not HDR because I now realise that a true HDR image is at least 3 same images of different exposures preferably 1 under 1 over and 1 'normal' exposure.
Takes me a while to really get to understand all these terms. Tone-Mapping, RAW and HDR. ALL very new to me. But it is Great fun playing about with it lol.

A very dramatic shot, looks like a storms a'brewin'!
Well, whatever it is (and I have NO idea!) it's just gorgeous! Very dramatic, very beautiful. Wonderful image, my dear!
Excellent capture and work my friend.
Awesome!
Excellent!
Wow, very cool stuff!!
I can understand what a lot of fun you're having. and this is a superb result, Alan. But I'm having trouble actually getting to LIKE most of the images produced: I sometimes find them unpleasant and even threatening. This is a stunning composition and I should probably much prefer it in its original version!! All that said, ignore me, I'm just old-fashioned!
very cool effect
Good final work of tweeking in PM3(photomatix 3) realy fine colors and tones.
Beautiful landscape.Wonderful work.
Beautiful landscape and fantastic work. 5+ :)
I have never seen Knowl Hill from this angle before Alan, but then I have never been walking in that area. Makes a pleasant change, and I think you have done well shooting in raw and tone mapping the image. I like that sky, very dramatic indeed. Excellent work. Bravo!!!!!
This is a very powerful and moody image indeed Alan. Well done and keep on playing! :)
You did well, the sky is a dramatic winner.
This is a great shot and beautifully postworked. Great work.
Keep it going with Photomatrix...I am reading but not doing yet. Like your effects. Good work. Bill

This type of postwork is so interesing to me. I am about 2/3 of the way through understanding the basic principles of my PS program now but when I finally get comfortable with that, I hope to delve a bit more into this sort of thing.
