However, I only have Photoshop Elements, and it doesn't have the Merge to HDR option that the complete photoshop suite does. So this is my attempt at it, done with masking and lighting/shading. <br /><br />(HDR is achieved by merging layers of the same photo from different exposures to get well, a dynamic photo) <br /><br /><br />Do you like it? Or do you think it looks too fake? <br />You can click on the photo to see a larger version. <br /><br /><a href="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2503/3858073721_3cf0a597f4_b.jpg"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2503/3858073721_3cf0a597f4.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="Skylight HDR attempt" /></a>Sasha Whitehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11466835168725022995noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4186889968287879342.post-9236806060768208832009-07-28T23:51:00.001-07:002009-07-28T23:51:36.603-07:00The Grim Reaper is coming...<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/76919282@N00/3767671729/" title="Grim Reaper by CndGypsy, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2623/3767671729_fb3d9d746e_o.jpg" width="360" height="288" alt="Grim Reaper" /></a>Sasha Whitehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11466835168725022995noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4186889968287879342.post-49391613607470555142009-07-27T17:21:00.000-07:002009-07-27T17:22:25.695-07:00STR Contact Sheet 1From a recent shoot with a friend.

It's not like the Taj Mahal or the Grand Canyon or Ayer's Rock. You could be standing in the middle of it and asking the locals where it is. This has happened. Let's face it, grey stone, green fields and cows is basically what Ireland is to some people, and if you don't do your homework, you too could cycle or drive the length and breadth of the Burren and feel like you never really saw it. But the homework isn't difficult and you can start right here. The Burren is an amazing place. It is a karst limestone region of approximately 300 sq km which lies in the north west corner of Co Clare, in Ireland. It is composed of limestone pavements, which are eroded in a distinctive pattern known as karren. This pavement is crisscrossed by cracks known as grykes and underneath the pavement there are huge caves and rivers that suddenly flood when it rains. It contains dozens of megalithic tombs and celtic crosses and a ruined Cistercian Abbey from the 12th century, Corcomroe. You can find villages abandoned since famine times and green roads on which you can walk for miles without ever seeing a car . And if you go in springtime you will find rare wildflowers such as gentian and orchids and bloody cranesbill."</span>Sasha Whitehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11466835168725022995noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4186889968287879342.post-20106688096627399292009-07-16T12:48:00.001-07:002009-07-16T12:48:43.157-07:00I wishI wish I was back in Greece right now, sitting at a small street cafe watching people go by.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/76919282@N00/2126979721/" title="Molyvos Corner Cafe_2 by CndGypsy, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2365/2126979721_fbcd6333f8.jpg" width="500" height="375" alt="Molyvos Corner Cafe_2" /></a>Sasha Whitehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11466835168725022995noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4186889968287879342.post-3006417778273889012009-07-10T01:54:00.000-07:002009-07-12T12:12:12.025-07:00Doorway To AdventureThis is a picture I took when I was in Ireland years ago. It's simple really, just a doorway I thought was very unique and cool that had a subtle Celtic vibe to it. I recently scanned the photo and wanted to do something unique with it, and came up with this.
