Tack Shop

Usually when I convert exposures to HDR (high dynamic range), I play with the result to get a wide range of colours and a slightly surreal effect overall. (See tomorrow’s post for an example.) But with this image I tried to keep the tonemapping to a minimum so that the result is more realistic and more reminiscent of what my eye actually saw. This is an old horse trailer that has been shoved into some bushes at the side of the road (Vandorf Sideroad, west of Hwy 48), north of Toronto. Five exposures at 0.7ev.

Deflated

I don’t know what kind of berry these are, but I found them hanging near a swamp not far from where I live. If you know what they are, leave a comment.

Bus and Graffiti

This was one of the first HDR images I ever tried, and to this day I think it’s still one of the best. Shot at the foot of Jarvis Street, at Queen’s Quay, in Toronto, on a rainy day.

Post Office on Main

This building used to be the post office on Main Street, in Newmarket. It’s now a very nice retirement home, but they’ve maintained the exterior of the building as it was when it was used as a post office.
