LARP

LOL

You got it

So if he is Jesus, what role do you play Dave?

I took the photo

Was doing the night shift at the Intensive Care. Every patient was in stable condition so I killed time with a few night shots and also caught the setting sun

Wow, you make even Rotterdam look pretty

lol It's a photogenic city actually, all the ads are filmed in Rotterdam.

p.s.

Night shot, taken 3 hours earlier at 3 am.

Base of a building Super cell as it raced away to do damage about 2 hours latter in the north. It did produce a tornado.

Huh. That's a strange effect you've got going on there, Macabre. I think i like

hdr, murrrrr

i think he was referring to the chairs

Oh...

EDIT: yeah, sort of... i meant the way the background fades out. When i think hdr i think surrealistic sharp van gogh-esque colours. Generally, i'm not a fan. In any case, i obviously don't know photoshop or photography enough to understand hdr.

Form: nice man, though I wouldn't want to live there with all the tornados.

Ryoki: HDR is a picture made of multiple exposures (from under- to overexposed) to create an image with extended dynamic range. People can go totally wrong by creating weird halos around clouds, creating comic-like saturation, etc.

This one took me 5 exposures and I merged it in Photomatix (HDR program). I tried not to overdo it, but it looks differently then one "normal" exposed photo.

Still don't really understand it
Do you set up your camera on a tripod and take several pictures, each with different exposures and then mess about with em in PS or do you simply flip a special HDR switch on your camera?

I like very much to take pictures, but i just don't know enough about it

You do need to set up a tripod for a few exposures. You shoot the scene 3 to 9 times depending on how much you need. There's no HDR switch dude, hahaha.

You don't need to understand HDR to take pictures. Just buy a cam, shoot and fill the frame with the subject.
