Going through some of last fall’s photos and came across some that I had not processed. I used Photomatix batch processing to speed up the HDR tonemapping.

My blog post on using Photomatix batch processing is here: http://www.akphotograph.com/Alaska%20Blog/?p=1494

This is a good example of how HDR can make your photos pop. I always shoot RAW so I could bring out more of the clouds with a gradient filter. I chose to use the other exposures I got from this shoot and combine them in Photomatix.

    Very cool Mike! I like both, looks like they are just taken at different times of day, or during different seasons of the year. Well done my friend!
