Light off... Light on...
I quite like both of these. Even with the difference in contrast, the greens in the first image are wonderful.
Scouting Locations
This was just a quickly grabbed shot taken today when I was out scouting for a location for an upcoming shoot for a Custom Harley Shop. Not sure If i'll use this place for that shoot but i think it has potential for a shoot of some sort .

I love that place. Your ruins are cooler than our ruins
What was it?
Small P&S sensor = horrible...
Wait for later this year, a new breed of P&S cameras using dSLR sensors (4/3 from Olympus and APS-C from Samsung).
1st week with my dslr
I am the proud owner of a canon rebel xs that I received as a graduation present. I am a complete novice with photography but enjoy it's freedom. Please feel to provide constructive criticism and I hope you enjoy this sunset as much as we did.

I hope this works if not the link is in the post.
***Tried to upload through flickr and I guess I didn't do it correctly. The image is to large to upload so I tried flickr and that didn't work. Can someone help? Sorry, I'm still a noob.

One more try...
Hopefully this will work. I had to save the picture off my flickr account so that it was a smaller file, but I think it lost quality. Can someone direct me to the easiest and best way to upload a picture that is over the limit, either by reducing the file size or through flickr? Thanks everyone.

Can't you see how really ugly this is? If you can't, that's very sad.
Why not forget this HDR crap and try taking your camera and a lens out to shoot just....whatever you see and let it go at that.......
It's best to include a URL link to a file that is roughly the size you'd like it to appear in the post.
As for the photo: I think it works, but wonder how it would look with some shadow detail instead of the stark silhouette. Silhouettes can be quite nice, so long as they don't dominate the frame as massive black areas, thereby limiting the overall tonality of the photograph.
A bit harsh, don't you think? To be sure, some HDR photos work better than others. It would be more helpful if you could specify what it is about this particular one that bothers you, rather than merely dismissing it as "ugly."
That's more than a little harsh. valdore has taken some great HDR photos, where the HDR treatment has been well suited to the image and has definitely added something. Having said that, I'd certainly like to see some of the images without HDR, as I don't think they all need it - they'd still work well with a less extreme treatment. With this particular one - and it seems to be a problem with many HDR images - it's the HDR sky that doesn't appeal to me.
Blownco... your picture won't even fit on the 24in screen of my iMac, so please knock it down a bit...
Ah, the HDR 'debate'. Of the HDR pix I see, I warm to maybe 1% of them. But that's because most photographers don't know how to do it, or - more importantly, IMO - why they do it. The worst offenders are usually followed, in subsequent posts, by the word "awesome".
But, hey, everyone's free to express their creatively as they think fit. It's a free country (though GB may become a totalitarian dictatorship any moment now)...

Clix Pix - I've long suspected you to be of the rote, soulless minion of orthodoxy type judging by the dumb things I've seen you write here before about photography - of which there are all-too-many here already.
And before I'm done - your snarling at me is real rich considering I've seen you post photos with dust spots all over your sensor. So, spare me your make-believe faux sense of aesthetics. Few things irritate me more than uninformed, tiny little minds doling out bad advice.
"HDR Crap?" Like dodging crap, burning, crap, curve adjustment crap, white balance adjustment crap, exposure adjustment crap, layer adjustment crap....? Your whole argument has all the forethought of that an amoeba makes before devouring its paramecia.
And while I'm on this tear -- Doylem - you are not the supreme judge of "good" and bad" taste in photography, even though I've never seen you not act like you are. I'll just leave it at that.
