Thank you! The different styles of the last years, had a lot of stages but I think the most fun to capture is the infrared one.

Vielen Dank für den lieben Kommentar! Freut mich das dir mein Photo gefällt, es ist übrigens genau zu diesem Zweck als Hintergrund verfügbar, um die tristen Tage zu vertreiben

Stunning work Christian

I`d personally clone that distracting stem encroaching into the shot top right though

myINQI Featured By Owner Jun 6, 2009 Hobbyist Photographer

Thank you mate! You are absolutely right Jonny! I worked to long on this image to see the simplest tings

I fix the problem immediately!

Absolutely the best!!!!!!!!!!! I love it.. the flower give a wonderful contrast!!! wish my hdr photos came out like this.. its beautiful!!!!!

myINQI Featured By Owner Jun 6, 2009 Hobbyist Photographer

Thank you sooo much! Pls show me your last hdr photos.

Roses-to-Ashes Featured By Owner Jun 6, 2009 Hobbyist General Artist

lmao I'm ashamed to.. I think they are in my gallery.. [link] they always turned out too fuzzy or to sharp.. contrast is off uhg... I don't know if what I'm choosing as a picture is wrong.. I've tried different ones.. like sky pictures.. or a building..

myINQI Featured By Owner Jun 6, 2009 Hobbyist Photographer

Hm, what kind of camera did you use? with only one jpeg file the photomatix results are always ... not good. You need a bracket of 3 shots, -2, 0, +2 EV jpegs or 1 raw image to get a good result with photomatix and of course other hdr programs!

Roses-to-Ashes Featured By Owner Jun 6, 2009 Hobbyist General Artist

I have a fujifilm finepix s700.. it has aperture and shutter speed settings.. and I don't know how to make it take raw images... I I just have Photomatix...

myINQI Featured By Owner Jun 6, 2009 Hobbyist Photographer

Okay, you need the shutter speed (exposure) settings. Put your camera to a tripod or lay it on a wall. On daytime the aperture is good set at f/8 let it on this setting and change the exposure to a point where you get no overexposured parts in your image, take the shot and then set your exposure to +1 take a shot... then set to +2, take a shot.... you can take more than 3 but in most cases the 3 are enough. But set your iso for this procedure to a fixed value. You need some practice also try it.

Roses-to-Ashes Featured By Owner Jun 6, 2009 Hobbyist General Artist

I thought I would need three shots.. one brighter one.. a normal, and then a darker right... and what is iso and how would I set that lol and about using photomatix.. do you use anything else? I'm going to copy what you said so I can try it out tommorow.. is there anything that won't make a good hdr image or can it be practically anything?

myINQI Featured By Owner Jun 6, 2009 Hobbyist Photographer

You can shot everything as a good hdr, simply take 3 shots (as you said one brighter, one normal, one darker) I explained it how you get this. The final part is the editing in photomatix. Maybe is my last Tutorial helpful -> [link] you can use the photomatix part for your hdr test. Pls show me your result, then I help you to improve it.

Sieht sehr sommerlich aus! Immerhin etwas sommerliche Atmosphäre auf dem Bildschirm, wenn ich so nach draußen schaue

myINQI Featured By Owner Jun 6, 2009 Hobbyist Photographer

Du sagst es, furchtbares Wetter im Moment, bei uns ist ja gerade Rock im Park, die Armen Musikfans die gerade im Regen vor den Bühnen stehen tun mir leid... Ich steure eben mit sommerlichen Bildern gegen
