Fell Off A Back Of A Truck | Tuesday Jan 20, 2009
One of those surreal HDR shots. The best way to enhance the gritty urban feel in the over cooked HDR is to do it in Photoshop. Photoshop does a better job with color than photomatix. To get the look in this image i tone mapped in Photomatix then took the image into PSCS4. I duplicated the background layer twice. In the first image hit cmnd-U and desaturated the image to B&W I then changed the blend mode of the top background image to soft light. This mutes the colors to a nice gritty feel, use the opacity slider to taste. The next thing with HDR images is to High Pass sharpen on a separate layer and again adjust the opacity to taste.
PS. The image looks better with the dark theme.

All in all though the more I look at it the more I get to like it.
