HDR fun

[focalintent]

On the photo workshop in oregon last week, joedecker decided to have a contest for worst hdr image. So, for better or worse I dove into that one with both feet. I apologize in advance for these:

And in penance, here's an HDR that doesn't look like a clown's autopsy:

The third one is still my favorite. And I will be billing you for my cataract surgery. :)

Nice. I'd really like to start playing with HDR sometime.. While you can end up with the technicolor breakfast photos, there's some awesome potential for shots like your last one..

Those are so horribly wrong, but I bet you could sell the first one for big bucks at one of those tacky tourist street fairs...

We call it the Black Velvet Painting of the 21st Century.

Which reminds me, I need to track down a black velvet printer....

What scares me is that my own entry in the Bad HDR contest almost immediately got a comment from someone on Flickr inviting me to submit it to an HDR pool.

Hahaha! I think the invitation alone may need to be a sign of something :)

WHY IT'S THOMAS KINKADE, THE PAINTER OF MOTHERFUCKING LIGHT

Hahaha - I wonder, did you read the flickr image titles before or after you posted this?

(One of the images is titled "Bite me Kinkade" :)

I did not. My knee just jerks that way.

Also, I'm pretty sure I saw that house picture in the window of a real estate place in Somerville.

I love the idea of a bad HDR contest. I admit I enjoy ridiculous HDR sometimes... it's like an addiction to romance novels. #1 and #3 are especially bad/good.
