Botanical Gardens
Yesterday my Viewfinders Camera Club held its first annual awards banquet at the San Antonio Botanical Gardens. And whether you are resident or visitor, if you haven't discovered this place you owe it to yourself to check it out. It is a photographers' paradise. Lots of flowers and stuff of course, but some really cool other structures including a number of large glass enclosures for plants. I was fascinated by the glass buildings and since HDR is my fun thing of the month, I had to try some triplet shots for HDR merge. Here is one that I think came out pretty well. Comments welcome.

BigOwl: Nicely done, as I mentioned previously HDR is an art. You are on your way to becoming a master. Maybe you can give this grasshopper a lesson soon.
ReplyDeleteA few comments... The image, to me, looks a little underexposed. I see the shadows from the building, so it looks like it was a sunny day, but the image looks a little dark. Also, the color temp looks a little on the warm side. Might be a byproduct of the image merging process.
It looks like you had lots of fun at the Gardens. I look forward to seeing your next hdr adventure.

Yes, the color temp is definitely warm and I do think it's due to the merging process. None of the component shots was that color. There are sliders to correct color temp and exposure level along with many other variables. I probably should revisit those. Thanks for looking and commenting.
