    This is a photo I entered for the bristol uni photo competition. I won the fortnightly competition but unfortunately not the main one. Still got printed in the uni newspaper though which was nice.

    Re: Photo-a-day

    Tried a wee bit of HDR:





    And one more for luck:



    EDIT: They look a bit blurry on here but the originals are very sharp (i suspect it's the resizing) - the second is my current desktop background

    Re: Photo-a-day

    Second and third ones look good whiternoise, they look sharp to me. Colours on the first one are too saturated for my tastes (lol coming from the Oly shooter I know).

    Re: Photo-a-day

    I agree that the first one looks too unnatural.

    My first attempt - had a bit of a play around with the colour balance and sharpened it up a bit but it's still too dark in the foreground:



    My second attempt - foreground looks a lot better but the sky is completely washed out now. Actually ended up 'blurring' it again - reducing the noise:
