Glade Mill HDR Reprossed

Glade Mill HDR Reprocessed 2014 – D200, Sigma 10-20mm

Did some experimenting with an old HDR file I saved from a 2008 workshop in the Great Smoky Mountains with Tony Sweet. I reprocessed the .hdr file I saved in the latest version of Photomatix 5.0.4.

The improvement in tone-mapping software is definitely noticeable. Below is a version I processed in 2008 with Photomatix way back then. Just saying, might be worth a revisit to some of your favorite HDR images from the past…Click to view images larger.
