This is the other side of the view of the Wycoller footbridge!

We went to the Forest of Bowland for a drive out yesterday and it was beautiful sunshine!
-
This has been an experimental of composites!

Again, I have used the same snowing effect that I had created in Paintshop to give this scene a little more of a wintery feel :-))

This is a composition of a couple overlooking Rivington. Not sure what the plase is called, sorry. And a photograph of Seagulls that I had taken yesterday in Moses Gate. I would love to donate 100% of the sales of this work during the next 60 days to the Phoenix Appeal in support of the burning bushfires in Australia! My best regards to all who suport this wonderful effort! / And every sale, Rebubble will match it and also donate to the appeal! Canon 5D Canon Zoom lens 24-105mm

I know I’ve taken already quite a few shots of this stone building. But it really fascinates me and depending on the angle you take a photograph. You get to see another side to this lovely architecture. And yes, I have some more in my collection which I may upload once I find the time to work on them a little to bring out the best in them? This was taken with my Canon 5D and 24-105mm lens.

Here is another angle of the tower as promised! It can give a feeling of bleakness or something mysterious. Everytime I walk up there, I see something different obout this place. The lighting from the environment I supose has a great part to play in this? / Hope you like it as much as I do? This was taken on the 24.3.09 with my Canon 5D and 24-105 lenses Kind regards, Sylvia

It snowed today and I went out for a walk with my camera. This is one of my favorite houses that is just facing at the end of my road. But don’t get me wrong. This house is a complete contrast to our terraced houses that we live in. The field belongs to a school, which just makes this something special.

I’ve worked this in Picasa3 and Microsoft Picture It 9 which I have resurected and am loving the things it can do!

How I Work some of my HDR Images
by SylviaHardyFirst select your image that you wish to work with and look at it and think about what it is that you want to bring out in the photograph…
First select your image that you wish to work with and look at it and think about what it is that you want to bring out in the photograph? Does it have burned out highlights? Or are the shadows to dark? Or is the contrast to grate? / I do a lot of my HDR work from a single image, because I fail to use a tripod and even then find some slight movement? / I work in Paintshop Pro XI. I open the image that I’ve selected which usually starts with a Raw photograph. / / illustration 1 Open Enhance Photo > Auto Fix / / illustration 2 I try to lighten the shadow area and darken the highlights to bring out more detail and when I am happy click ok. / / illustration 3 Save the copy as in JPG. Now I am ready to create two further exposure effects from this image for my HDR work. Go into Adjust > Brightness/Contrast > Level / / illustration 4 A box will pop up and take the slider to the right to give the photograph an underexposed effect and click ok. / / illustration 5 Save it as with a new name so that you don’t loose your correctly exposed photograph. To save you the hassle of opening your first photograph, just undo the last action of levels and you have the previous effect and open Levels again but this time take the slider to the left to give the photograph an overexposed effect and click ok. / / illustration 6 / / Again saving this one as with a new name so that you have three different exposed effects from the one photograph. Now I am ready to create a HDR in Photomatix. I have chosen to do this in Photomatix basic because I like the effect Photomatix basic creates. / / illustration 7 / / Click tonemapping and you see three basic sliders as well as bit depth output. I always sellect 16 / / illustration 8 Move the sliders around and if you don’t know what they do? Just move them from one extreme to the other. That way you learn what they are for and you can judge what you are looking for in your tonemapping and when you are happy click ok! Your HDR is finnished. But I chose to bring out the foreground out a little more and re-opened it in Paintshop Pro XI, using a selection tool and Feather of 200% / / illustration 9 I used the clarify tool which you find in enhance photo and clarify. I used about 5% / / illustration 10 Then I opened the Histogram which is found in Adjust > Brightness/contrast and Histogram / / illustration 11 By taking the slider slightly down and then click ok. Finally I sharpen the foreground in the unsharp mask / / illustration 12 and click ok and deselect the selection tool by right clicking the mouse and save your work as! / finnished HDR work / This is the original image before I had worked on it! I hope that this has helped? As I have been asked about my method of creating my HDR? And this is one way that I do it but not all of my work! Best regards to you all, Sylvia :-))
