Made a new album because some of these shots weren't done on campus.

I've started experimenting with HDR photography.. Obviously I'm still quite a noob at it, and always seem to be caught without a tripod whenever a good shot comes up. But, some of the results are pretty good in my book .

Oklahoma's Weather Bipolarism:


3 shots taken at ~1.8EV steps at my sisters' apartment complex:


A single shot HDR toned. Not as spectacular :\:


Something cool I saw while walking back from class (Quite a while back):


Single picture HDR toned:


And again:


My friend's K1000. He wanted me to take pictures of it to sell on eBay:


In Weatherford Oklahoma, outside my best friend's house:


And again:


A pup I met on campus:


She was really sleepy:


Sheppy mixed with Husky, I think:

Very nice shots! Colors really popped out. You did some processing?

That's the University of Oklahoma Norman campus. HDR stands for high dynamic range photography. There's too much information about it for me to type out here, so I shall let you Google it :P.

Mostly the only processing I did was the standard HDR processing along with tweaking of the curves and a little slide to the right of vibrance.

Beau-ti-ful. Especially the two cloud ones in the start, I like those ones the best, and the green tree ones after.

Re: More Photography
The third image is fantastic, Love it

I only have 1 teeny tiny suggestion though; Go into your adjustment layers panel at the bottom of your layers panel (It's in the middle, half black, half white circle) and select hue/saturation. It's vital you do this from an adjustment layer btw, Reduce the saturation slightly so the over-saturation on the windows to the left disappears, Then use an eraser tool to remove the rest of the adjustment layer so only that small area is affected

That picture was badly HDR toned. It was from a single image so things got messed up. I managed to manually fix the three exposures I took of that composition and merged those to HDR. It looks a lot better. I'll post it later.
