Motorcycles in HDR - Post Yours Here!

Layers?


After PhotoMatix, I returned to PhotoShop with my HDR -like image. In PhotoShop I "desaturated" my image, which removes the color and flips it black and white. After desaturation, I jacked it up to like 600% viewing size, and "hand painted" or hand brushed back in the colors that were removed, using the history brush tool in PhotoShop. After that, a bit of contrast, hue and brightness and you end up with either something you like, or a MUDPIE.

Guess I got lucky with this one

Again, I would not know what I know if our brothers here had not TAUGHT ME from scratch. Many of these other fellows really rock in the HDR department here, so hats off to them first.

Thanks,

Paul

Thanks for the explanation. I thought you might have done a desaturation layer on top of the original and then erased the desaturated areas where you wanted color - something that still baffles me when I try it.

I'll give your process a try - it might work for me. However you did it, it looks great.

Thanks,

I got myself a copy of Nik Software's HDR Efex Pro. I had been using Photomatix, but wasn't always pleased with the results.

This is a single image from my phone (only because it's my bike in it).

Here's a few from when I got home from a ride.
