MONTEREY BAY

Here is the same photo of Monterey Bay CA! One is in sepia and the other is just a crop with a color enhancement! Monterey is another beautiful place in CA to visit! I really enjoyed it! The beaches ar wonderful and the food is great! The town seems historic almost. It makes a great vacation!

Monterey Vaction - Bridge Beyond Beauty

This was another picture taken on our way back from our Monterey Vacation! This was one of my faves. I used the Dynamic-HDR tool for this effect.

It is important to be careful with HDR because you can get a cartoon effect if you go to far. In some of my first attemps you see that.

I enjoy waterscapes and this was one of a few I have taken!

Dynamic-HDR Tool

This is a wonderful tool for HDR. I used two exposures for this! I changed the elevation in them and then used the tone mapping tool in Dynamic-HDR! Then in Adobe CS3 I went to image adjustments using the selective color I enhanced the green. Then I went to match color and used image intensity. I then went to the filters in the blur section and used the surface blur on the channels and knocked out some of the noise in the image! This was tthe end result. I perfer this to LucisArt!

Here is the link to the Software!
