A moonrise / sunrise shot from Stovepipe Wells.

Two RAW files converted to an HDR and then tone mapped.

c/c welcome

Beautiful. I like how the sky/dune complement each other. Maybe just a touch more pop? It's great the way it is, though!

Absolutely beautiful, Steve. Don't change a thing!

do you have any framed alittle more left?

the veggetation creeping in to the left frame are kinda distracting.

This shot has a really nice and dreamy feeling to it. Must have been chilly
too

Excellent job! Really shows you what HDR can do. The tones in the shot almost don't look real.

Thanks for sharing!

Great pic. What's HDR?

I've stayed at Stovepipe Wells, late February 2005. Good time of year to go. Temps are down, moisture is up, flowers are in bloom. Bloody lovely place to visit. And great place to photograph.

WOW! Steve, I LOVE this, very nice!
I need to read up on HDR and tone mapping. How many images did you have to take to get this?

So beautiful I honestly could cry.

What would I do without beautiful pictures to look at?
