Cheers, how do you directly link the image?

Right click image -> copy image location. That's in firefox but IE should be pretty much the same thing. Then just ctrl+v the link inside the img tag.

I thought your HDR pics looked so awesome so I tried one myself. My first ever attempt at doing something like this so it's not that good

If you used Photomatrix to create this image, I think you need to use 16 bit instead of 32 bit so it comes out correctly. But I might be mistaken because I tried it on two different images one being 16 Bit and the other 32 Bit and the the 16 Bit turned out right.
If you are using Photoshop its something to do with the bracketing parameters being either inverse of what they are meant to be or all the same. hope that makes sense.

Oh and thanks Dravonic

I only used photomatrix.

Very nice pictures Vspectra, I have photomatrix too but my pictures are not coming out as nice as yours. I'm pretty new at this and still in the learning process. What I did was take one single picture then
edit it with photomatrix. I think this the wrong way, do I have to take multiples of the same pic then merge it together in photomatrix?

 

[Vspectra]

Yeah, you have to take multiple pics of the same scene but at different exposure levels. Lets say you choose the exposure to be -3, 0, +3. You end up with a dark image, a neutral image, and a bright image of the same scene. Open those 3 images in photomatrix, merge, and then tone map.

Thank you for the fast response. Do you know what what's the average # of pics that needs to be taken before the merge or it doesn't matter at all?

Here's my weak attempt

I'm trying to do that in Photoshop CS4. Took 3 pics with -2, 0 and +2 EV but when I try to merge them, they all show up with 0.00EV and I get a weird looking image.

When I open the images I get a "wrong photoshop data" error and I have to choose to ignore the data to continue. Maybe that's the problem? They are directly from GT5 so I have no idea of what I'm doing wrong.

Okay thanks I will check that out later.
Never heard of Photomatrix, is that some kind of free photoediting program?

 

[Dravonic]

Tried out photomatix and it let me set the EV manually. So here's my first attempt:

Is there a way to set the EV manually in photoshop CS4?

The program isn't free unfortunately but you can download the trail of the latest software and get a code for it. Just search it in google.

Awesome! It's not easy getting B&W HDR shots, but the wheel just looks fantastic there.

I agree.
This shot is simply perfect.
