yanko, I believe you assumed I liked this version better because I asked why she entered the other. Not the case at all and I never said anything like that. The reason I asked about the other is because the clouds in that one seemed more unnatural. But you are right, each to their own. I do like the house better in this one.
mk, you can hide this if you want. I just didn't like someone using my comment to state their biases. |

The other version (i.e. take III.jpg) is a much finer edit hands down. The highlights and shadows while still looking tonemapped is still believable. The light still looks like it's coming from the sun where as in this photo it looks like the weeds are radioactive emitting their own light. It just floors me that people love these crazy edits but hey to each is own.
Also, don't kill me! *runs* |
You're exactly right. This version was a simple tonemap of the disaster that was the original entry (good god!) as a test when I first got the plugin. It was only done on a 640px image. I had to redo in order to make a print res version and the other is what I came up with.
At this point, I think I'm probably done editing this silly pic. Time to do some new stuff. :)

Can I ask why you decided on a softer version?
This is the MN fair? Next year I swear I'm going to send something in. Especially seeing that picture that won.
If you want I'll erase this comment. Don't want to mess up your presentation. |

This is actually the version I ended up submitting.
It wasn't accepted. But that's cool because at least my cat digs it.
(And it's hanging in a local gallery and will be printed in next year's calendar for a Fortune 500 company so I'll be okay about the fair rejection. :) ) |

| Looks like a house just off the highway up in the St Cloud/Rice area. How'd it do at the fair? |

| Yeah, I like this one. Very much. I like the grasses in front in particular, they glow right up to the house. |

| This IMO is a lot better than the one you entered. |
