It's Raining Outside...

Posted by Charles Thomson (Cheltenham, United Kingdom) on 16 June 2009 in Landscape & Rural.

This is a quick experiment with HDR on a photo I took yesterday. It's a process I haven't played much with as I don't usually like the results.

It had been sunny all day and it suddenly started really raining hard, so for a brief moment it was very bright at the same time as the sky was filling up with clouds and rain.
I quickly grabbed my camera but unfortunately wasn't able to capture how cool the sky looked at all. This image doesn't really look anything like reality but I think it's pretty cool anyway...

Comments (and criticism if I'm in a good mood) are welcome and encouraged
