This photo was from my archives, I didn't even know I have this. Anyway, I was playing around Nik HDR Efex Pro and I decided to use this photo. It's a single image hdr processed using the latest version of Nik HDR eFex Pro.

This is the Tuscan West Building in NW Washington D.C. This was taken on early spring afternoon around 5 pm, I was walking in front of the building when, I suddenly thought of looking up. The shape of the building and the cloud formations, together with that nice sunset light really caught my eyes. So I position myself to capture that scene right on the center in front of the building. I slightly zoom to 14mm and took 3 bracketed shots. I use my EOS 60d and a EF-S 10-22mm Ultra Wide Angle Lens to take this photo, aperture at F/5, ISO 100, taken at 14mm.

Software I use to create and process this photograph:

  • Photomatix Pro – I used this in creating this High Dynamic Range Photograph by merging the three exposures I shot.
  • Nik Dfine 2.0 – This is a photoshop plugin from Nik Software. I used this to remove noise from my photos.
  • Nik’s Viveza 2 – This from Nik Software. I used this to enhanced the fine detail structure of this hdr photo.
  • Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 – I used Lightroom to manage and organized my photographs.

Last weekend I went to the DC area, but since it was really hot, I decided to stay indoors and my first stop was the National Air and Space Museum. The GE CF6 Turbo fan is one of the may exhibits you’ll see on the first floor. I really wish I had a tripod, but since tripods are not allowed inside museums, I created this hdr photo using three images that I shot using the rebel’s auto bracketing feature. I have to boost my ISO and use a minimum of 400 or leave it set to Auto on all my shots because of the limited light available.

This hdr photo was created using a Canon Rebel XS and a EF-S 10-22mm Wide Angle Lens, aperture at F/5, ISO 640, Auto Bracketing set.

Software I use to create and process this photograph:

  • Photomatix Pro – I used this in creating this High Dynamic Range Photograph by merging the three exposures I shot.
  • Nik Dfine 2.0 – This is a photoshop plugin from Nik Software. I used this to remove noise from my photos.
