Panther Photo

[ilovechameleons]

Hey Guys,

Check out this picture. I did it with a post processing called HDR. Basically, I take 3 different exposures and combine them into 1 photograph. This method makes all the colors look "enhanced" and "surreal".


What do you guys think?

Looks like they upped the solarization quite a bit.

I agree it looks enhanced. Even the tree looks purple. I don't think those are the actual colors but if I am wrong....WOW!!!

Doesn't look natural at all!!

No, these aren't the actual colors. I used a method in post processing called HDR. Basically, I take 3 different exposures and combine them into 1 photograph. This method makes all the colors look "enhanced" and "surreal".

Here's another example of HDR with the Golden Gate Bridge.

Looks awesome for a frame or a poster!!

I see, looks neat. The way you explained it before you edited your post (when you said it was HDR Chameleon's picture and not your own and added a website) made it seem odd.

Looks cool.

We actually print these on metallic paper and blow them up.

I use photomatix to merge the images together & photoshop to do some final tweeking. Thanks for asking, Jessica

A poster on metallic or diamond paper would make the image look amazing!!! Seemed people were confused at your methods and enhancements, but I completely understand your artistic approach. Great work, I need to order some prints.

Cool Shot!

Do you have any other shots.

I personally think that the best HDR Shots are the ones you can't even notice they are HDR. But I do like this shot.

I agree with hecticZ, the best HDR shots are the ones you do not notice it in!!!! I still think you have a great shot and I would love to have some realistic images on metallic paper. Do you have other pics?

HecticZ, those are awesome shots. Are they yours? I do some landscapes as well. Here's one similar to yours. I took them in Great Falls, VA. I would love to know what you think.

Yes, thank you minola! The metallic paper makes the color stand out even more. It looks like its popping off the paper! Check out the blog at www.hdrchameleons.com/blog

You have excellent photos and I love the compositions. I didn't hurt that you had some excellent looking screameleons to work with too. Great work!

I think it looks neat.
Something I might have liked as a poster when I was young.
