July Cloudwork – Alberta’s
High dynamic range results in this fused image combining three images (-1 stop, average and +1 stop) creating an image representing early summer cloud work in north-central Alberta, a farm within kilometres of Greencourt, Alberta.
Listening to – Allstar Weekend’s ‘Mr. Wonderful’ and ‘Not Your Birthday.’ ‘Blame it on September’ another Allstar Weekend tune follows. I’m listening to my daughter’s tunes pulled from iTunes.

Wonderful shapes created by the clouds. I like the halo effect, you seem to use this a lot, to edge the details and make them stand out.

Hey there, Jim:
The halo effect … there’s probably four different processes to get to this end state in creating depth within clouds. This image is a bit raw in terms of starting point and where I’ve been able to take it. The cloud work could be crafted a little more toward realism so editing effects are not so noticeable. But, it does demonstrate some of where an HDR shot can go …. 🙂
