pauledell Posted August 8, 2011 Share #2 Posted August 8, 2011 Hannes, An imposing machine. I'm not too certain that better light would have made much difference in this picture. Nice composition, tones and sharpness. Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeinzX Posted August 8, 2011 Share #3 Posted August 8, 2011 Hello Hannes, intersting pic of a huge machine. Tonemapping of this pic might result in interesting variations too. Regards Heinz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannes Lummes Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share #4 Posted August 8, 2011 Hello Heinz, I'm totally unexperienced in tone mapping. If you have a moment please feel free to post a fast and dirty version. I would be delighted! -Hannes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeinzX Posted August 8, 2011 Share #5 Posted August 8, 2011 Hello Hannes, a very quick and preset based tonemapped pic - there are numerous different possibilities which can be created very simple. Software was HDR Efex Pro from NIK, as PlugIn in Photoshop CS 5. This software can be used only as PlugIn (no stand alone version) with Photoshop an Lightroom: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
likalar Posted August 8, 2011 Share #6 Posted August 8, 2011 Very strong image, and I think Heinz' version is stunning. A great illustration of the options available. Thanks, both! Larry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveleo Posted August 8, 2011 Share #7 Posted August 8, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) The machine in very interesting and if you have other photos, why not post them here so we can try to see how it would work. Artistically, the second photo is nicer as a work in itself. Over in the Digital Postprocessing forum here I started a thread on tone-mapping, "before and after" maybe a year ago. There are LOTS of different ways to attack "tone mapping" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
