haha, I was never against grain, Just certain types of noise like chrominance and banding. which my camera tends to do in high ISO and low light

luminance noise is acceptable :-)




but you are correct, I tend not to prefer any noise in my color photographs including grain.

 

wow u really gotta change ur avatar back. The new one throws me off. Don't recognize ur posts now. ha ha

 

^^ haha it threw me off too

 

 

i would LOVE to do a share screen and watch u edit ur photos so i can see before and after.

Great work as usual.

 

HDR son!!!

 

oh i know. But still like to watch the process. I was watching an HDR "tutorial" type video from TWIP and they were kinda showing how Tone Mapping works better than the HDR in Photoshop. Any idea if Photomattix is better than PS for that?

 

HDR on photoshop has never worked for me, so i dont know...i use photomatix

 

yeah on PS, it kinda enhanced the colors but didn't show the detail in the blown out spots. With photomatix u could get the inside of the building exposed right and the outside that is usually blown out is in correct exposure too. I was like wow HUGE difference.

 

i'm still trying to get the hang of using photomatix. I've done some shots but they don't look very HDR imo. I guess I just need to play with them more

 

thats my problem...i just wanna play with it, but not willing to sit and spend the time to read the tutorials

 

haha exactly. but it's def nice sometimes for those shots where there's just too much to capture in one exposure

 

yeah...

i just showed elijah how i process photos real quick...probably faster than he expected...

 

thanks for speaking gibberish to me as well don

 

hahahaha i bet you were pretty confused at first

 

BBS'in.

 

what jibberish did u tell him, Don?

 

hahaha you know exactly what gibberish i speak of

non-HDR shot from Scary Dairy
