Well into the Past – Heritage Village

Here is an image I took from Heritage village which is located near the Dubai creek. Its a place which highlights the past of Dubai and shows you how Dubai was back in those bedouin days. Most tourists do pass by this place to understand the history of Dubai and to also know the kind…

Rain Drops during Sunset

This was a shot taken on the same day when it was raining in Dubai 2 years ago. The place you see is of Medinat Jumeirah which is located near Burj al Arab. I was hurrying up taking as many shots I could out in the rain since I had a feeling it would stop…

Like this shot very much, bout i would lighten it up a little bit – its very dark! Nevertheless stunning!

Sunset over the Formula 1 Bridge

Another one of those shots taken out from my archive. Damn I have so many images that I have processed before and require some reprocessing to be done on them! This is the bridge that goes over the Formula 1 circuit at Yas Marina. I would have loved to capture the circuit below but the…

Same place with 2 different flavors

The shot you see above is from Jumeirah beach and it is one of my favorite locations on the beach because of the vibrant colors you see on the rocks. Today’s post will be a comparison on HDR and manual blend mode. The image you see above is not HDRed but has been manually blended…

Andy's HDR Tutorial - February 28, 2011 - 02:19

I like the way the sea looks softer in the HDR image and the light on the rocks is slightly warmer.

You may be able to get more detail out of your images using something other than Photoshop. I’ve been using SNS-HDR lately, which I find gives particularly natural looking results with little effort.
