    What HDR program are you using? I've got the demo of Dynamic Photo HDR, and had a wee play with a couple of your pics

    Wanna see?
    Go for it mate, yes please. I used a free one called photomatix pro. 4.0, free trial anyway. Cheers for the comments too mate.

    Queen's View Loch Tummel

    Pic's I took a good few years ago....

    On the road you went there instead of taking a right and going along Loch Earn to Crieff take the next right the A827 along the Loch Tay, make a route to Tummel Bridge (B846)and follow Loch Tummel and look for signs for the Queens View car park at the east end of the loch.

    Bit of a drive but still a great run and great view.

    I do the run over the Dukes pass to Crieff every year visiting friends, first few times they just looked at me when I said I had come that way, yes I could go the motorway past Stirling that’s quicker and that is the way I come back home but why not enjoy the trip there if like normally the sun is splitting the sky and its such a great road.

    Mini as it was. As it is. As it always will be. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's up to you to decide if it counts!

    I tried Photomatix first as well, then someone else on another forum suggested Dynamic Photo HDR, it seems to do the job a lot better, only donwside to the demo is that it watermarks your pics.. but if you use the right shots you can crop out the bottom where it marks them

    First one.. maybe a bit much on the hdr..



    I really like these two tho, excellent shots to start with!!

    Nice look at the Detail on the rock, I'll have to have a play.

    It seems to make the pictures very dramatic I think I’d call it.
