Yesterday we took our oldest son Henry to Camp Mac where he will spend the next 10 days likely having the time of his life. I took this picture off the back of his cabin. I have several friends that saw it on Facebook and said it literally hasn’t changed in 30 years. I thought it turned out pretty timeless myself. It’s a 3 image HDR photo processed in Photomatix.
I went back to some pictures that I hadn’t developed yet to see what interesting goodies I could find. I really like this one of the morning sunrise over the beach, and the hint of homes on the right. I used Photomatix to process this.
Since I started shooting HDR photos I have been using SNS-HDR to process the images. I gave Photomatix a shot but SNS had a more natural look that I was looking for in my real estate photography. Today I decided to circle back to Photomatix and process some of the shots I have taken over the past year. Here is an example of one that I took over spring break in Rosemary Beach Florida. I like the way it processed in SNS and maintains a natural look, but this time in Photomatix I went for a more creative touch and boy did it come out. Here is the SNS version http://carsonvision.files.wordpress.com/2012/04/rosemary-beach-grass-park.jpg. Compared to the Photomatix version below. What do you think?
Each day the lawn is covered up with bicycles and kids playing ball. These homes have a great view of the Gulf of Mexico, but the view of these homes isn’t too shabby.

This morning we were greeted on the beach by this massive storm system that tried to come onto land. It slowly moved around us but never hit.
