Nieuw-Haamstede, The Netherlands, August 2012

Back at my favourite location. This time I went with two friends to give them a little introduction in long exposure photography. The tide was a bit disappointing though, I expected the tide to be higher. However, we still managed to shoot some nice photos.


Technical info

First off: dA once again screwed up the colour saturation. That hasn't happened for quite some time. Shame really... Fixed.
∙ Long exposure + HDR. Finally found a right balance between this, if I may say so. I am satisfied at least.
∙ I used Oloneo HDREngine (30 day trial) for the tonemapping. Quite pleased with this program too.
∙ Single RAW image.
∙ 480 second exposure (8 minutes).
∙ Finally, I used Photoshop for finetuning the colours and removing some minor glitches.

Thank you!

I do like Photomatix and I have made HDR's with it I am really satisfied about. I find it hard however to achieve the more "natural" look with Photomatix. And it has way too many slides for all kinds of settings that I didn't really see the point of :P

Thank you Linda!

The colours of the sky and sand is supposed to be a little warmer, more pink. It still looks OK though. Some images were messed up a lot worse in the past.

I still haven't figured out what it is. I just checked the embedded profile as mentioned by Phostructor, but I see nothing out of place.

I noticed on photomatix there's an option to change to srgb at the beginning and that seems to help, no idea how you do it in luminance though, my pics sometimes come out better on FB than DA.....thats bad....they seem to have changed DA at some point as it used to be the other way around?
