I took that photo at Universal Studios, Orlando with my Canon XSi camera and used Photoshop CS5 and Nik Software filters to create the HDR effect. It is one of many photos I am working on to display at a show later this year.

This is the original photo on JPG format and lower resolution. The original photo is RAW and quite large!

Here's another HDR photo I am working on. So far this is what I have done to it.

Here's 1 more of my HDR photos. This was at Sea World Orlando.

Thanks!

I bought a new Nikon D5100 for Christmas and I haven't tried it. I'm dying to give it a test ride to see how it compares to the Canon XSi I used to take those shots above.

they are excellent because you don't incorporate the halo effect like alot do. it's all about the tonality.

I tip my hat to you

Nice, it annoys me a bit that the light pole is cut off though.

Did you take multiple exposures to rebuild the range? or did you just use the RAW file the camera created and ran that through filters?

I used the RAW image and ran it through the filters. Set the exposure level, etc on Photoshop.
