Beautiful photo, but OUCH that guy looks as red as a tomato!

Yes, don't forget the image has been tweaked but when you compare it to the nicely bronzed lady also in the picture he is definitely a little red!Beautiful photo, but OUCH that guy looks as red as a tomato!![]()
Scott has a fantastic demonstration of HDR (High Dynamic Range) for the pictures he took of Pelican Plunge - Not sure whether I can link to it or not, but maybe Scott canI guess I need to learn what HDR is...![]()

Basically when you capture an image in varying light some of the picture generally turns out in shadow and some turns out overly exposed due to sunlight. When you take HDR pictures you take a range (usually 3 or more) pictures at varying exposures to capture all variations of the light. Then you use a package such as Photomatix Pro or Photoshop to merge the images together and pick out the best contrasts in the all the images to make a new one. You can adjust the settings which can give a very surreal feel - It can be an acquired taste but I personally love the HDRs images that are over tweaked to give an almost painted feel.
