EOS 5D MK.II with ZEISS DISTAGON F2.8 21MM Sample Photo 514152 By bajanexile
Fyfield Down, Wiltshire, England
Notes
Situated on a high plateau of chalk grassland, Fyfield Down displays the best collection of sarsen stones in Britain. Sarsen stones are large boulders of siliceous sandstone that were transported to the area through glacial action during the ice age. Ancient peoples used these stones for building purposes and today they support rare lichen and moss communities. Mapping and excavations have established that settlements were in use here 7,000 years ago. The stones at Averbury were brought from here.
I understand.

Forgive me :-) please.
I agree with you and I sometimes use this Dark Room Technique too. By the way talking of technique I didn't negate HDRI as a whole, on principle, but I like HDRI only softly visible. For me the best post processing is practically not visible, definitely not visible.
But I understand, de gustibus... .

Don't get hung up on HDR. Think of it as another Dark Room Technique. If you can't align the frames for what ever reason, then don't use it, otherwise it can produce superior images (and large prints). I posted a Methodology on this site for this technique ~ 1 year ago, but no one showed any interest what's so ever, so I took it down. Most things posted are totally ignored by the Membership. If you want to see how well three frames can be matched in the Tone Mapping process, open this image fully i.e, click on the + sign as well. Many single frames are not as sharp or detailed as this. It really is all about technique. Regards Steve
I like it, just... Why are you doing almost always HDRI. I'd like to see it without HDRI. From my point of view it would be better softly HDRI or darker HDRI. Probably more mysteriously.
