Ok, I know it’s not called the Inception bridge (it’s called the Pont de Bir-Hakeim), but if you have ever seen the movie Inception, you know why it’s so much easier to remember it by that :)

I took this photo quite in a hurry one early morning in Paris, while I was on my way to a different location, but I just could not pass it without at least few photos. I got it a little of center, and even with a lot of corrections, it’s still a little off. But not so much that it cannot be shared :)

This is a manual blend from 5 shots, all blending just to brighten the area under the bridge.

And again something for those who don’t have a good camera, but still want to experiment with HDR. You can download the original raw files for this photo from here https://www.dropbox.com/sh/xeaj3in493k5kmu/FysTgnR8XW and try to edit them. Feel free to share you results on my Facebook page.

No contest this time, this time it’s just for the fun of post-processing.

You can also find brackets I shared last time in the folder “other” under the same link

Feel free to share you results on your facebook/flickr/blog, but please don’t forget to give me credit for the photo and link back here. And of course, please don’t use this photo for any commercial purpose (I’m still the author )

Have fun

As Louvre was closed off for a filming, while I was there, I had to be a little more creative with my composition. So I tried going a little more with and angle towards it :)

This is a manual blend from 5 shots.

So hard to catch the blue hour sometimes. It passes so quickly. This one was actually just luck. I was just on the spot in the right time, with my camera in the bag.

This is a HDR created in Oloneo photoengine from 5 exposures and the result was blended with two of the original exposures in Photoshop.

Recently I really like getting symmetry in my photos. And places like churches are really great for that. I tried the same thing here, but was not really able to get it perfectly symmetrical, as the scene wasn’t symmetrical on its own. But still I think it worked out nicely. Especially I like all the detail in the walls. I haven’t even noticed it while I was taking the photos (it was quite dark there), so it was a pleasant surprise when I started editing.

This is a manual blend from 6 shots. I got a -3EV shot because of the very bright window, where I still wanted to have all the detail. This is a side window in Pannonhalma Archabbey basilica, the one on the left :)
