Today is another HDR, photo art expression from Washington, North Carolina. I originally titled this image, “Scales of Justice” for an obvious reason. But upon reflection, I thought it would be a better example of a more abstract use of lines and texture. Interesting combinations can sometimes be found in architecture.
And to go even further, I decided to push this image beyond reality for more of a modern, High Dynamic Rangy look. (But not too extreme)
Processing: Five images loaded into Nik HDR Efex Pro for light tone mapping and Structuring. In Adobe Photoshop CS6, I used HDR Toning to get a slight surreal appearance while staying close to reality.
Equipment used: Nikon D700 with 50mm f/1.8 AF Nikkor at f/2, ISO 800.
The details and textures really jump out Mark. Nicely captured and processed.
Thanks, Len.
Nice contrast in textures, Mark. The detail in the strange looking stone work on the lower half of the building is quite intriguing.
Thanks, Mark. Appreciate your comment.
Awesome details Mark. Love the antique scale in the window.
Never know what you’ll find by peeking into windows.
Thanks, Edith.
nicely done Mark – I too shoot a lot of stuff like this though I don’t often post it – glad you did, it’s nice!
Thanks, Jim.
