Dam, my eyes couldn't even tell which one is the original one. Really nice.

For a HDR they dont have enough range in lighting imo. The shot is decent and does have a good DOF but i feel the first is too underexposed and the second is overexposed.

agreed this really isnt what an HDR is.

An HDR = high dynamic range. TBH i see very very little range and i dont think this worked out well at all.

The first is under exposed and the second is over exposed.
Those lenses are the lenses from your uncle you were talkin about? It's ncie to see they work out for you.

hehe it is an HDR guys, its 3 raws one with alot exposure a normal one and a under exposed one. combined into an HDR with photomatix. and my range isnt in the light its in the shadows.

And yearh its those lenses
:D and they work great :D

Ps. I cant agree with you in the underexposed part since that is the effect i was going for ;D i seen the image both on my laptop and my normal pc. two different color settings :D the laptop makes it lighter and my normal pc ic callibrated right and its still the effect i was going for ;D

ok well I guess it varies from person to person but IMO HDR means high dynamic range. I Know you did the three exposures in the photo im just saying it doesnt seem to have high dynamic range, which is why it doesnt look like an HDR to me.

Thats what i was trying to say.

Hmm i liked the original version better. To me the underexposed "effect" is a nice touch. Gives it a mysterious feel
