Yeah it's cool, but I think the wine store was the ultimate.

I didn't take this but I have been up to the top of Notre Dame. I think the photographer did a nice job of HDR on this.

I didn't know you could do the HDR thing in black and white, I thought it was strictly a color thing. It's more about the contrast I guess?
Neat pic.

Ansel Adams was a pioneer in HDR the old school way in the darkroom. Dodging and burning in black and white.
Edit: You know, I'd love to see his prints displayed side by side with prints made from his original negatives without the dodging and burning. |

We didn't breach when I did my cruise but we did do some really deep dives and some steep angled dives and climbs which they call "angles and dangles".

I saw this on Google+ this morning, an image by Gregory Colbert. His work, Ashes and Snow is an ongoing project that weaves together photographic works, 35mm films, art installations and a novel in letters. You can check it out at http://www.ashesandsnow.org/

Yes, HDR just refers to high dynamic range and it is usually done by combining several exposures from 1-3 stops over to 1-3 stops under the normal exposure and then tone mapping them in a program such as Photomatix and then some additional post processing in something like Photoshop.
That being said you can always do the HDR thing and create a nice color image and then just convert it to B&W in Photoshop. My main complaint with some HDR work is that it just is overdone in my opinion and looks fake. |

Wow. Amazing pics in this thread.
I really like the way that last one captures more than just the moment of the photo, but tells quite a story.
