You know how when you get a new piece of software\u2026an application that maybe does something you have tried to do, but actually does it, or does it better\u2026you know how you are tempted to go back to images that you knew, while solid and satisfying, had just a bit more in them? You know? You know how you dig back into the archives and think, \u201cI wonder what Dynamic Photo HDR [or whatever] could do with that one? You know?<\/p>\n

This is a shot taken on North Uist several years ago, one August, on my only visit (so far) to the Hebrides. I had no right to expect the glorious weather I found there. Though it is called \u201cThe Carinish Castle\u201d it is actually the remains of one of the Mid-evil Monasteries built on the Scottish and Irish Isles\u2026you know\u2026the ones that kept learning alive during the dark ages. Dynamic Photo HDR brought more definition to the clouds and more apparent detail to the landscape, making what was already a good image pop<\/em>! (If you like pop. Pop seems very popular these days.) And, best of all, DPHDR manages the pop without the obvious tone-mapping artifacts of some other programs.<\/p>\n

This is from my Sony H50, which I bought pretty much for this trip. <\/p>\n

Final processing, cropping, straightening horizons, etc. in Lightroom. <\/p>\n
