Sucks when you can't find a good place to put your tripod... Can't tell if you went HDR on them.. If not, you did a great job of managing the contrast.. If so.. you might consider adding to your bracket.. It would have helped in 2, 4 & 5.. Lot of people shoot 3 shot brackets.. But for really high contrast situations like you found.. 5 or even 9 shot brackets will help you recover the detail in areas that are blown out.. or underexposed. Happy to help out & walk you though it with a PM. paulpowers  location: Manchester, UK    |  |  Re: The Plughole, UK <Reply # 2 on 4/30/2014 7:50 AM > Quote I don't mess about with HDR Website:- http://www.Paul-Powers.co.nr Flickr:- http://www.flickr.com/photos/paul_powers Email:- Powerssk8@gmail.com Elwood_Blues  location: Phoenix Az    |  |  Re: The Plughole, UK <Reply # 3 on 4/30/2014 8:03 AM > Quote There was a time when I didn't either.. I guess I felt that either it was a cheap cheat.. or ( when overdone ) it made the shots look like dammed cartoons... But then I started paying around & got some really good results trying to make it do what the name promises. High Dynamic Range.. or just recovering detail that is already there.. Mostly I still use it to keep outdoor parts of a interior shot from totally blowing out.. Well.. if you decide to give it a shot ( pun intended ) I'd be happy to walk you though.. paulpowers  location: Manchester, UK    |  |  Re: The Plughole, UK <Reply # 4 on 4/30/2014 6:04 PM > Quote I'm an explorer not a photog so besides a bit of a crop I don't alter any pics Website:- http://www.Paul-Powers.co.nr Flickr:- http://www.flickr.com/photos/paul_powers Email:- Powerssk8@gmail.com Elwood_Blues  location: Phoenix Az    |  |  Re: The Plughole, UK <Reply # 5 on 5/1/2014 12:05 AM > Quote lol k. if you say so... guess it doesn't count when your camera does it?
