Britannia Mines HDR #2
This is the second HDR image taken at the Britannia Beach-BC Mining Museum, and I think my favourite of the day. It's impossible to get the detail in this image from a single exposure. In fact, even the human eye can't see all this detail at once. I think this is way cool [though I noticed that Alison didn't leave any comment on yesterday's post but did leave comments on the previous two... c'mon Alison, don't you think this is kinda cool? :)].
Every once in a while, time wasted, er I mean spent, stumbling the internet (if you haven't discovered Stumbleupon yet, consider yourself lucky - it's an absolutely addictive time black hole) can yield something useful. Today, I stumbled across something about working in different colour palettes in photoshop which led me to something else (can't remember what) which led me to a very simple way to check what your image will look like under different settings - like as an sRGB image in Windows... just exactly the thing that's been driving me batty for quite a while. It's so easy to do this now. I still have to do extra processing for images that I want to post here, but now I can see what they'll look like while I'm working on them!
Can't believe I didn't know this sooner; it made my day. And just might mean more regular posts, since that irritating stumbling block has largely been removed.

Well Kendall I think it's way cool. You have to adjust your computer screen to get the right angle to get the subtle colour shifts.

Yea, those monitors at work pretty much suck... but I guess we can't expect too much - it's just work after all!
