    Very nice Santosh. I would love to see one of these as an HDR image, I think they have potential atleast.

    Thanks Dennis and Don for your visit and glad you enjoyed the pictures. The last one is the library and I have tried to keep the colors as I saw it there. The place is really amazing with those wooden furniture and lighting.
    Somehow I dont like the HDR images Dennis. Most often they look very unnatural and like some kind of paintings to my eyes. But again that's just me.

    You are more than welcome Santosh, I understand that the effect does not appeal to you, but if down right, you will not get the HDR look, but amazing details to the over all subject. I`m going to try more HDR stuff on some buildings to see what the out come is like.

    I agree with Dennis. You can do an HDR without the tonemapping and get stunning normal looking results. CS3 will do a nice job. This waterfall was HDR'd in PHotoshop and did not get the dramatic/ gray look to it just more details in the water.

    I to have been playing with HDR and some pictures I like the 'grunge' effect. These are great pictures of some Canadian History none the less. Sharp and full of wonderful detail.

    Thanks guys for the visit and glad you liked them.
    Very nice picture of the waterfalls larkspur. I would manually blend such shots because I dont have CS4 and dont want to spend that much money at this moment. Because I am drooling over 7D and a considering a new Epson printer (R2880) now. But certainly CS4 is in my wish list as well...

    Very nice Santosh, I live in Ottawa and never been think I should go and check it out. I also agree with you about HDR I have expermimented with it but have not achieved a realistic look yet, but I will keep trying.
