Been doing this on Flickr for a little while - some of the results are amazing.Anyone else tried it?

Where have you been?

Yeah, HDR has been fashionable (overused??) for the last couple of months. Do a search for HDR and you'll see what I mean!

I think I've seen it once or twice before on here

I think your HDR is pretty good but the subject matter is a bit meh.

Once or twice?

You missed my guide, my corsa shots, my Honda shot and my slightly fun Condi Rice thread? Its an ok shot but it suffers from that HDR plastic effect. Most recently I did this;

For fun HDR + Tilt Shift;

HDR of my desk (Yes I HDR everything now just to see how it looks)

I think you should have cloned out those distracting cables going from one side of the window to the other

I think it was more to see what it looked like than for artistic merit. He's not likely to be putting it into his portfolio...

I think HDR B&W works really well. It brings you closer to the increased dynamic range offered by B&W film.

I'm gonna try to get some B&W HDR shots of Cambridge this week

The Tilt Shift one looks like a Model!... you know one of those model railway villages... even the people!... very weird!...

I'll have to give this a go now!... though I have an EOS 33V (not digital)... is it still easy(ish) to do???...

You can't do the HDR effect with a film camera - it is a digital technique to combine three different exposures. (Although, thinking about it, you could perhaps take the three exposures, scan the resulting negatives and do it that way.)

The T&S effect requires a T&S lens of course.

I haven't seen any PS examples that look as good as those taken with a TS lens, but I'd like to see some if you've seen any!

Yer you could take 3 photos, scan them in and try that. As for the T&S effect you can do it in Photoshop saving £1000 on the lens.
