Great shots? Do you use a Canon DSLR? All your shots are slightly tilted to the right

Well I actually use a Casio EX - Z850. And sorry about the other part, I really need to work on my photography!

awsome! nice to understand the hard work behind these amazing photos.

one question though. isn't this HDR? taking multiple photos at different exposure and blending them together?

Extreme Torque that looks like heaven.... I think Iv put off the Himachal trip for long enough now.

Clicked early morning, just some random shots

No, it's not HDR. Automated HDR process is a complex one as what they call is floating point mathematics and tone mapping.

This is purely my understanding of tonal range and it's application.

@EXtremetorque
Awesome shots, especially the neat gradation of the sky in the first one. Loved that!

I tried some manual Exposure blending following Rudra's work flow. A total of 3 exposures blended in photoshop cs4, I need to get better at this...well it's just my 2nd try, so no worries!

Nice view TG. Just see if horizontal tilt is needed or not. Sea, right behind looks little tilted.

And this one surely looks natural.
