BEAutiful...

I too feel that the original is much better than the PSed pic.

EDIT: @tsk: yet another fantastic pic. Man! This thread is amazing.

The pic is made by blending multiple exposures. I had gone to take some pics with a nice sky, but the problem was that day a dust storm came up and it was all dusty and hazy. The polarizer fixed the dust part pretty good, but could not do much about grey skies.
So I decided to stack multiple exposures to get a HDR

Max, i appreciate your effort to eliminate the unwanted objects from the frame. I think it should be done while taking the picture itself. Thnx.

I like your version, as the original is tilted. But the warmth is a bit too much in the PSed version, otherwise its great.

Haven't posted a picture in a long time. So here it is, one picture from my side, shot at chamundi hills mysore on sunday. Please give me your feedback on this, I hope I have improved from what I have done earlier.

I went for a spin in the heart of gold. Told Beeblebrox to take it to FTL, and while in hyperspace, took some long exposures.
Just as we cross the Speed of light

Fully in hyperspace now

Exit was a little turbulent

Tanveer, that's an incredible spectacle. This is a long exposure shot of traffic with some strange twist. Were you shifting the camera or playing with the zoom? What on earth were you doing?

Mayavi · 26th June 2007, 07:45

Which place is this and where were you standing to get such a view?
How long is the exposure?

Its not a traffic shot. The lights are stationary. I was on the rooftop, and the aim was to catch some lightning(in which I was unsuccessful).
So I took 30 second exposures and rotated the camera on the horizontal plane on the tripod.
Along with that I also zoomed in and out of the scene.

HellwratH · 26th June 2007, 10:10

Grrrrr...Tsk, You had to post them after my post...lol, took away the limelite.. :P... Wonderful Tsk, you always come up with something innovative. Ah Beeblebrox, have to read that book, been lying with me for quite sometime.

Aaaha, that explains it. I didn't think it was traffic and was wondering what exactly you did to get such image.
I too tried similar thing couple of days back and the results were no where close to what you got.
