John where's the lense flare???
I'm so bored. None of my other friends wanted to go out bar hopping or anything, that and one other friend couldn't because he's not 21. Oh yea...on 80E near the automall/budwiser plant in fairfield it was kinda interesting to see 2 local cops and a chp pull over some ghetto scraper andhad the driver in handcuffs and a dog sniffing out the entire car lol. I'm tired...time to get some sleep and get up soon only to go last minute festivus shopping with some friends. Yay for festivus!!!!!

these suck, but its all im gonna try and do right now. im about to punch a hole through this computer.
because CS2 wont merge to HDR for me for some reason im having to use another program, so im having to save all the images as JPEG's, but the CameraRAW viewer on CS2 keeps ****ing with the exposures, so doing HDR is pointless. and the other program wont let me adjust the curves. really ****ing frustrating.

why do you think there is so much depth to the pictures, these aren't just 1 single pics, they are multiple... i'm getting use to it...trust me, +1f over what your meter says for shooting fog, adjust by 1/2s based on how bright the background is. as far as focus problems, try locking focus on something thats less obstucted? if you cant do manual it can work.
you can also use redeye flash to help focus on ****ty cameras, dont ask me how but it works.

"HDRI was originally developed for use with purely computer-generated images. Later, methods were developed to produce a HDR image from a set of photos taken with a range of exposures. With the rising popularity of digital cameras and easy to use desktop software, many amateur photographers have used HDRI methods to create photos of scenes with a high dynamic range."
it was our first attempt at that.

I don't think you are getting how thick this fog was when the car was up in the parking spots... if i would have taken a normal picture(and not multiple)... there is absolutely no way i would have that kind of depth.. period

if you want a really good low light fog shot ill bring out the 80mm, i still have some film... i just gota find a place to develope it. those shots would look badass with uv and IR overlays, and i have some of that film laying around too

i used to shoot in 35mm, but i HATED processing film and doing darkroom work.
i love digi's.
a friend of mine in san fran has done some really kick *** HDR's and he was kinda my inspiration for giving it a try. we just chose the wrong time and place to do it. (and i shot in the wrong format)
hopefully attempt #2 will yeild more pleasing results.
