The way I see it there simply isn't enough information in the two images to achieve what Ray is after. Now starting again with the camera set to fire it's maximum frames per second and a 2 or 3 ...

Zooming that much is going to find all sorts of issues. Pixel peeping?

If it was mine I would crop out just a small bit of the bottom. Just a wee bit too much white there for me. But great image.

If you are in Crescent City this is a MUST do drive. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=howlad+hiil+road+crestent+city&t=newext&atb=v258-1&iax=images&ia=images Keep in mind it's a narrow road and I would ...

Nice work. You have even got the glass reflection over the camera lens. Now care to share your steps?

You make an excellent point. There is no one editor that suites everyones needs. Unfortunately some folks just dont get that point. regards

Unless someone is prepared to spend a lot of time doing one on one comparisons then I can't see the point of claiming any program "better". The simple fact is you will get the "best" results from ...

At least you have tried. But can I ask how you define 'tried'? The reason I ask is that most programs take a long time to master. Trying them all in a 'fair' way would take a very very long time. B ...

The reality is that there are many alternatives to Photoshop. Some not so good and some as good as or 'better' than Photoshop in many regards. Photoshop has the market on a string. Many folks only ...

I haven't used it but I know Photomatix can batch whole folders full of files automatically.

It has been a while since we camped in those areas. Tunnel Mountain campground in Banff is a good place to base yourself. We had elk and ground squirrels?, by the dozens. South of Jasper we based ...

Nice one Ray. Ii like the background. One small comment. The kid may not like the parrot sitting on his fingers!!

Be aware that only Nikon software can read all of the in camera settings. Simple test. Download and install Nikon's own NX-D Studio. Make sure you have it set to the correct camera setting. ie ...

Love the first image. Well done.

Kent you are standing. I crawled out on my belly to photograph the river. I've done a few 'crazy' climbs in my time. I think the one that worries me the most was Picacho Peak in Arizona. Not hard ...

When we were there I seem to recall a few days after we hiked up to Observation point there was someone charged with pushing their wife off the trail. My memory is a bit vague. But I know on one ...

Angels Landing and the Observation trail sorted out my fear of heights. NO THANKS. It took two goes at Angels Landing before I conquered the fear. Photos? Nah hand are still shaking.

Of coarse 'my' good. :-D Isn't that how it works?

I have to confess I have sold many 'over done' Tonemapped images. The public don't care. They buy what they like. The below image is an example. (Only a portion shown). I have lost count of how ...

Keep in mind that 'good' HDR/Tonemapping starts with good capture. Don't overlook the variations between software results being a result of 'poor' capture. Just an observation of recent years ...
