Alarm

[Serapth]

Originally i shot this last week but shortly afterwards the battery had run out so i couldnt really review the shot until i returned home..which upon doing so it had come out a little blurred as i hadn't used my tripod and was using longish exposures as the lighting was low and im not overly keen on using a flash.

Decided to reshoot using a tripod on saturday morning, whilst i was happy with the result i decided to shoot a few different exposures with making a HDR image in mind.. Ended up using 5 exposures spaced at 2 stop increments to make the image with a little subtle tonemapping to give it a dirty, gritty look.

This shot instantly drew my eyes in, a very good thing. The darker patch of texture in the upper right seems to be a bit distracting, but I'm sure it was a very grungy wall, so thats to be expected.

A very strong image, and a great showcase of the HDR technique

very interesting. pictures like this never cease to amaze, the things you guys do with your images is just mindblowing. GREAT work. the only thing im going to pick ya up on is the two dark corners at the top. but otherwise that is ace

IM not sure its a photo that needs HDR treatment but the tonemapping is certainly nice.
I like the grunge look it has and the texture it implies.
