Well with a bit more time on my hands now, I was finally able to begin experimenting with high dynamic range images (HDR). I decided to give Photomatix a try - and this is my first attempt. A picture I took on a recent trip to Vientiane. It's a merged image from four separate photographs - each at a different exposure - hence the 'dynamic range'.

Will be having lots of fun with this over the next week or so. :-)

Speechless really. I’m not often lost for words – but this presentation by Patrick Dixon of Siemens leaves me speechless. Thanks to RFIDs on the Brain from Boing Boing (and Douglas Rushkoff via ‘Joe’).
