I did blend three exposures! I am not so sure that i like the effect for this scene, especially comparing it the link image. I do sometimes think hdr is overdone, however, i also feel sometimes it is pretty cool. I reside on the eastern boundary of the heartland. Did you know that ohio is an agricultural state as well as industrial. We Ohio people also consider ourselves midwestern as well! :) America has a big heart, some 2000 miles wide!

Well, according to my photography teacher, HDR is done correctly when you don't see it and it looks as if the picture was taken with a film camera and the film then processed for a high dynamic range, meaning nothing's too dark, nothing's too light. When it looks oversharpened and like a painting, it's HDR gone wrong. That's what he says and he was a Photography professor at the University of Birmingham.

I know that Ohio is still the Midwest, BUT I also always see that sign in front of my eyes that you see when crossing the Missouri from Nebraska to Iowa that says: Welcome to the Heartland. :)

Hdr is ok, its the tone mapping at the end of it that kills it. :) or makes it look like a painting! :) I think i would like your photography professor. The Hdr thing for me is just another thing to learn! Hopefully at some point i will get it right! :)

My teacher is really cool. Too bad his wife forced him to come to Ireland. At the university he'de be much better off. Well, fortunate for me though, because now he is teaching at our community college. :)
