Ian seems to have noticed that I have aspirations of turning this site into something of a photo blog (plog? phlog?) and sent me a link to stuckincustoms.com as something to aim for. It’s a nice site, although I think the HDR technique is slightly overused. I prefer it when I look at a picture and can’t figure out why it looks slightly surreal, rather than when the overwhelming feature is the post-editing and I have to spend time getting past that before I can look at the real image.
But, as I say – it’s a nice site with some pretty exceptional images, especially “Icelandic Navy in Dock” and “Purple Skies of Malaysia“
Hey, check you out with your knowledge of photographic technique abbreviations. Me being more of a layman photo-taker only knows the term “cheese”.
Although it is very stylised, lovely colours wouldn’t you say. But above all, some nice compositions?..
As for what you call the site? Seems like “Photoblog” is the way to go: http://www.photoblogs.org/
Hey Matt,
Here’s a link to a Photoshop HDR tutorial:
