Pentax K20D + Kitlens
Thats pretty awesome HDR.. Pentax is pretty good it seems.. wish they make FF. But maybe we will get MF instead. :D
Erh, sorry...I dont even know what FF and MF is?!? :D Plz explain :)
FF= Full Format / Full Frame
MF = Medium Format / Crop
Dunno about "crop" as medium format is bigger than FF. :) Usually its 0,7x coeficient.
medium format isn't crop, it's even larger than FF ;)Quote:

The chalet which is the main feature of the shot, is just past the Prarion Ski lift in Les Houches and is part of a new development from chalet and apartment builds, "MGM". The background of the shot is Mount Blanc and i tried to capture the "White Mountain", without the normal "Hat". His hat is normally a small area of cloud resting around the top of the peak in the winter months.

Metric, any changes to your process? What programs are you using now? Been a little while since I messed with HDR. Normally I export from LR2 to Photomatix, do the work then port back.
I've moved to solely ACR and Photoshop. Luminous Landscape has a excellent thread on creating images with visually zero noise by exposing for the midtones and shadows by 4 f-stops and then "re-zeroing" the exposure to get clean, smooth midtones and shadows (highlights can be left alone or taken from an underexposed capture if necessary). By working in a 16-bit workspace, I can use adjustment curves to pull up shadows and do tonemapping without worrying about introducing any noise or banding since I'm working with 'perfectly' exposed pixels.
If others are interested, I was planning on posting a How-To sometime in the following weeks. :)
Thanks for that link. I'd definitely be interested, I am always having trouble keeping noise down in HDR compositions, no matter how good my exposure was, low ISO, etc.

The main part of this shot is the snow part leading up though the forest with Mount Blanc in the Background. The forest is a hidden Gem in Les Houches with view of Mont Blanc and clear walking paths which turn into the town cross country circuit during the winter months. The forest boasts many great features from small streams running down rocks, to vast ice walls which locals practise they ice climbing.

A little teaser for my HDR tutorial coming up in the following week or two ;)

Don't let the underexposed image trick you, open the TIFF in Camera Raw/Lightroom/Photoshop and run some fill light or crank up the exposure and pay attention to the shadows :)
