Well. It’s been a while since my last HDR photo. I took this at the cloudy day at nearby neighborhood, where I took my first few HDR images.
HDR Image – Lake Houses and HDR Image – Trees
I was told the best HDR image target is the place or the object that has so much details and contrast. So here you go. We don’t have that much cloudy day in Arizona. So I have to take this opportunities to take cloudy HDR photos!
I think the above lake view is a little too blue while the one below is a little too yellow! What do you think? Your comment are well appreciated! Thank you for stopping by!

Hi Terence. How are ya, man?
You have a pretty dramatic sky here, which is nice actually. Was this an early morning or late evening shot? The top image, which I like best, seems to indicate that the shot was taken during what is known as the blue hour. The sun seems to be quite low in the sky, not sure if it’s going or coming. 🙂
The second image is also nice. The clouds have a stormy look but can be brightened if you choose.
@Jimi:
You have good eyes! It was taken at late afternoon before it gets dark. It was supposed to rain a little, but it did not either.
The color was not very blue and yellow. I am not very good at adjusting color balance and the tone in photoshop, but they turns out unexpectedly OK. 🙂
The original photo isn’t very interesting. HDR make it possible! That’s why I love HDR. You can turn something boring into amazing. 🙂
The colors on the second photo look good to me. Nice shot.
