Brackets

Since in my todays post I also mention the HDR processing steps, I though I also show the original brackets :) So here they are:

Also the Photomatix setting I used were: Strength 86, Color Saturation 70, Luminosity 2.5, Microcontrast 5.9 and Smoothing at 3.2. All other settings at default.

Green house in Brno

This is my favorite house in Brno. Each time I’m there I have to take few pictures of it :). They are currently restoring it, so lets hope it keeps this nice, classic look.

I vent quite light on the post-processing on this one. All I did, is they I combined the shots in Photomatix, and then removed noise in the sky and added a little more detail with Tonal Contrast in Color Effects Pro (but only at around 30% opacity). A little more contrast before the export and thats all :) I wanted a more realistic, not oversaturated look. I think I quite succeeded :)
