Sep 03, 2008 10:32 | #2 There's a pretty pronounced halo around the roof line of the building from the HDR processing. Also, to my eyes, this is kind of borderline between a natural HDR and surreal because of the heavy color saturation. I've found that when there is not a dramatic sky, that less is more with landscape HDRs. I do like the image though, it reminds me of a picture postcard. You can certainly get some nice shots of Chicago from the tourboats on a nice day, and that day looks picture perfect. Gear List

canonloader Cream of the Crop More info | Sep 04, 2008 06:07 | #10 Try the Light Smoothing Setting thing. The 5 Radio buttons. I don't seem to get halos at 4 or 5, and usually do see them at 3 or lower. Mitch- ____...^.^...____

More info | Sep 04, 2008 08:49 | #11 ok thanks...i have been experimenting with photomatix for a little while...I like the hyper saturation look in some photos, i think it really brings a surreal element to the photograph...Although I have yet to actually print one. I know that Photo on paper will look less bright, so i will have to see how they compare. Panasonic Lumix GX-1 | Panasonic 12-35 f/2.8 O.I.S. | Panasonic 40 f/1.7

canonloader Cream of the Crop More info | Sep 04, 2008 09:14 | #12 I have not printed one yet myself, but I am thinking that printing HDR on Metallic Paper is the way to go. Have you ever done that? I use a printing service and they sent samples of all their papers when I signed up with them and the metallic paper looks awesome. Mitch- ____...^.^...____
