FOR THE UNINFORMED: Mrs. Shields may kill me for how long this post to the blog is, but she can deal with it :P Alright... I just want to state that I love Apple to death and get that out of the way but I AM GOING TO RANT for a little. Apple introduced the new "iPad Air" to the world today, among other things. The starting price for a 16GB silver OR black iPad Air is $499, and if you want 8x the storage with the 128GB version, it'll set you back $799. To put that into perspective, if you were to buy a 2.3GHz Mac Mini that has a quad core Intel Core i7 (the fastest processor Intel makes, starting at the i3, i5, and then the i7), 4GB of DDR3 ram, and a 1TB hard drive, it'll set you back $799. So you can buy a pretty very good Mac computer (I have one at home but better haha) or a new iPad. Anyways.... The iPad Air weights only A pound (yes one pound), is only 7.5 millimeters thick (Apple advertises that by saying 7.5 millimeters THIN), has a 9.7...
I absolutely love HDR photos, they bring out more color and contrast in pictures. In this photo of a beach the HDR brought out incredible colors in the sky and it almost looks like the sky is reflecting on the water. The water against the sand is also very interesting because there is a glowing outline of the water on the shore. I also really like in this picture how there is so much more detail in the clouds than the water since normally it would be the other way around with detailed waves in the water. Instead of the clouds being calm, the waves are which I think adds a more interesting effect to the picture. HDR in general brings out so much more detail in pictures that you might not see in the original. It makes you see a greater beauty in pictures that you may not have seen before!
The contrasting colors in this piece is absolutely beautiful. The beach and the sky working together to make a wonderful work of art.
ReplyDeleteThis is really interesting looking
ReplyDeleteI love this picture, it shows exactly what HDR is meant to accomplish. Normally you would see a transition of sorts to something lighter as you pan up to the sky, but with HDR the photograph keeps that dark intensity throughout the entire picture.
ReplyDeleteThis is a really cool photo, I love the contrast,
ReplyDeleteHDR really brings out the beauty in the sky. This makes me wish I had taken a picture of a cloudy sky for my HDR project
ReplyDeleteThis photo look almost impossible! Like it has to be a painting or something, it's so pretty.
ReplyDeletethe HDR is really bringing the shadows out.
