Took this shot on Sunday...it was raining and miserable...Nairn looked even more sad than usual.
Where the river meets the sea are these especially drab houses that back onto the river. As I walked home I saw the gull and the sky and click.
The picture got a four exposure HDR treatment once I got home and I'm quite pleased with the result. I used the 'exposure blending' setting on Photomatix rather than the more aggressive 'tone mapping' that I've been using on my previous HDRs.
The exposure blending seems to create a more rounded, natural looking image compared to my bonkers field pictures that I took on Saturday, dumped into Photomatix and then cranked everything to 10...I think there's more to this HDR thing than meets the eye.
In other news I'm over 60 hits on my seaweed pic which is a personal best!
Icelandair just paid the worst photographer it could find $50,000
