EOS 1DX and 1D Mk IV and less lenses then before!

Beautiful work, ebiggs1! We love the dramatic atmosphere of the first two, and you've captured the beauty of nature so well on the third. Keep up the great work!

Thank you.

I cna't give any exif data on the first two as they are multiple exposures. The Sugar Maples are as follows, 7D with ef 24-105mm f4L IS USM.  Shot at 24mm, f9, 1/160 @ ISO 160. Evaluative and sRGB.

What a gorgeous view! There's so much to admire about it, and the reflection makes it twice as beautiful!

Diverhank, the lights bring a great sense of energy to this photo, especially with the blue building that catches the eye. Thanks so much for sharing!

I think it's a bit sad when a thread on photographs becomes a discussion about HDR and whether it's a valid form of photography.

 

I remember when I switched from film to digital and the purists would argue that ANY interference from Photoshop destroyed the art. It's all a matter of degree.

 

If a particular individual's preference for highly stylised HDR offends you then that is your opinion and perhaps you are missing the point. Infra red, black and white, soft focus, even polarised are all techniques that alter the final image away from the original scene. HDR is the new kid on the block and could be argued is introducing a new art form distinct from old school photography.

 

Personally I love using Lightroom and Photoshop to produce an image of which I am proud. It isn't neccessarily just an exercise in faithfully reproducing the subject to the n'th degree.
