Moody Skies over Hethersett

Stormy sky looking over Little Melton

There was a storm brewing in the skies of Hethersett on this evening so I decided to try to experiment with some HDR photography.

I went about my business with my Nikon D80 in hand and my new-found understanding of the process. I took myself off round my usual walk, which also meant I got to check if anything new had appeared on my patch.

The first image was taken by the lakes overlooking Little Melton and the second looking over Hethersett towards the Water Tower.

I returned to the computer in an attempt to create the traditional HDR photograph using Photoshop. Needless to say this isn’t as easy or as effective as you would like to think. I decided to make use of the images I had taken with the above results.

Looks like I will have to do many more trials with HDR or just now use the Dan Bradbury method!
