Interesting. Google says the Guppy flew some wings for Airbus, but obviously not the A380, my mix up
Nice photos on your flickr btw, added you as a contact

Just found this in my pictures folder, shame it was taken with a iPhone instead of an SLR. Just over a year ago I worked right next to the runway.

That is just the strangest looking thing.
Another from the weekend. Trying a bit of HDR using a mix of 4 or 5 in Photomatix.
Another lovely one kushti!
I could see the cyan colour cast on both the originals, and I can see the red-tint on Bobsters attempt to remove it. In Bobster's attempt the guy on he right looks okay, but the tuba-thing on the left in the foreground is pink.
But my screen is also crap (for photo editing).

HDR is some way of increasing contrast or making dark things have more colour?
I know what it stands for but that's not quite answering my question. How is it achieved, weaving together more than 1 photo?
As far as I understand it, you take a range of photos (or one and use bracketing) at different exposures and then combine them. Obviously you need to use a tripod and use manual focusing so that the only thing changing between each photo is the exposure. Never tried it myself though, so not sure what you do once you have the series of photos.

Depends which definition you use Technically it should just be capturing more dynamic range than normal, and using some kind of HDR device to display it as well. In more common usage it's capturing more dynamic range (for example taking a series of photos at different exposures) and then compressing it back down again so it can be displayed normally. The point of doing the compression yourself is that you can choose which bits to compress or not. The result is that you get details in the extremes that you wouldn't otherwise have been able to capture on the sensor.
You can also (and cameras in fact often do) alter the tone curve even within a single exposure, so you can darken the light bits, lighten the dark bits etc. which increases the contrast and makes images look more punchy.

I don't think it's too bad for my iPhone, I was pretty chuffed.
Taken on Sunday at around 5pm.
