Marsh Light<\/h4>\n

Another shot from my Saturday outing, and another Canon SX20IS and Photomatix HDR. Two shots. <\/p>\n

Just a very quiet domestic scene with a touch of wild in the marsh in the foreground, and some drama in the clouds. Or so I hope. The tension between the elements is of interest to me. <\/p>\n

From a technical standpoint, the trick was to take both shots with no cars visible on the busy road that passes between the house and barn\u2026and of course I was trying to do this handheld. A tripod would make HDR much easier\u2026but then I\u2019d have to carry the tripod. \"Sad <\/p>\n

Canon SX20IS at 28mm equivalent. 1) 1250th @ f7.1 @ ISO 80, 2) 1\/400th @ f4 @ ISO 80. Exposure compensation dial used to change the exposure by eye for the clouds and landscape. <\/p>\n

In Photomatix, enhanced detail, tone mapping blend, with the settings tweaked by eye for the desired result. I am still very much learning to use Photomatix.<\/p>\n

In Lightroom, a touch of Fill Light and Blackpoint to the right, added Clarity and Vibrance and Sharpen narrow edges preset. Cropped at the top to constrain the sky.<\/p>\n
